Posslet Envelope of Movement Flashcards
Who created the envelope of movement in 1952?
Ulf Posslet
Where is posslet from?
Sweden
T/F: habitual movements do not generally coincide with border movements
True
Do habitual or border movements show greater variability in individuals?
habitual
T/F: The rest positions and intercuspal position generally differ from the retruded position of the mandible
True
describes the position of “best fit” between the upper and lower teeth. ◼It is the closest relationship of the mandible to the maxilla as this is where all the teeth fully interlock simultaneously.
Intercuspal position (ICP)/ MIP
What determines the Intercuspal position (ICP)?
Teeth and soft tissues
T/F: Though it may seem automatic that an individual goes from a rest position to ICP, this path of closure is actually a learnt behavior that is conditioned into short term memory
True
Does ICP give any info on TMJ?
No
Does ICP usually coincide with CR?
No
Usually during MIP, where are the condyles positioned in comparison to CR?
Anterior and inferior
Which position is used clinically for minimal restorations?
MIP
What are the 3 things mentioned that would cause the need for centric relation over MIP clinically?
Excessive wear, TMJ issues, and muscle pain
The position of the mandible in which the condyles are in the most superior and anterior position in the articular fossae, resting against the posterior slopes of the articular eminences with the articular discs interposed.
Centric relation
Where are the condyles positioned in CR?
Most superior and anterior position
What determines the position in CR?
Condyles
Which position is referred to as the most orthopedically stable position?
CR
Which position is repeatable, reproducible, and recordable?
CR
Which portion of the articular disc are the condyles articulating with?
Intermediate portion (avascular portion)
The mandibular movements are limited by ligaments, the articular surfaces of the TMJ, and the morphology and alignment of the teeth; The outer range of movement is reproducible and called ______ movements
Border movements
_____ movements Occur during functional activity of the mandible, Are confined within the Border Movements, and Begin and end in the maximum intercuspation position
Functional movements
This pure rotational movement in the inferior cavity of TMJ is also referred to as ____ movement and the axis is referred to as _______ axis.
hinge movement; terminal hinge axis
This represents the movement from maximum opening to maximum protrusion; sagittal plane
Anterior opening border movement
