Orthopedo Flashcards
what is MDA used for?
to predict the size of the unerupted 3, 4, 5
uses ratio/proportion of Md and Mx tooth size to estimate overbite and overjet
Bolton’s analysis
determines if crowding is due to inadequate apical bases based on measurement of apical base width at premolar
Howe’s analysis
suggests ideal maxillary 4, 5, 6 arch form based on Mesiodistal diameter of 22/12
Pont’s index
if FL > MD = broader contact areas which will result in more stable and resistant crowding
Peck and Peck
Classified teeth into small, medium, and large
Sanim-Savarra
father of modern orthodontics
Edward Angle
Angle’s Class I Malocclusion
Class I/Neutrocclusion
MB cusp of Mx 1st molar lines up with buccal groove of Md 1st molar
Mx canine lies between the Md canine and 1st PM
Dewey’s modification of class I malocclusion
Class I type 1 = anterior crowding
type 2 = labioversion
type 3 = anterior crossbite
type 4 = posterior crossbite
type 5 = mesial drifting
Angle’s Class II malocclusion
Distoclussion/Retrognathism
Mb cusp of the Mx 1st molars falls between the Md 1st molar and 2nd PM
Mx canine is mesial to Md canine
Class II division 1: Mx CI in extreme labioversion (Sunday bite)
Class II division 2: MX CI tipped palatally and in retruded position; Mx LI are typically tipped labially or mesially
*SUBDIVISION = unilateral
Angle’s Class III Malocclusion
Mesiocclusion/Prognathism
MB cusp of the MX 1st molars falls between the Md 1st molar and 2nd molar
Mx canine is distal to Md canine
Dewey’s modification of class III
Class III Type 1: Edge to edge
type 2: anterior crowding
type 3: anterior crossbite
*SUBDIVISION = unilateral
most common malocclusion
Class I malocclusion
signs of incipient malocclusion
