Mutually protected occlusion
“ The posterior teeth protect the anterior teeth and the anterior teeth protect the posterior teeth”
Characteristics:
- MIP occurs with condyles in centric relation
- Posterior teeth “hold shim”
- Anterior teeth “drag shim”
- Immediate separation (no contacts) of posterior teeth in any eccentric movement
- Anterior guidance: anterior teeth provide separation of posterior teeth in eccentric movements

Full coverage guidelines for anterior teeth after endo
Anteror teeth are subjected to lateral forces
For anteriors, full coverage = crown
Crown not required: Intact marginal ridges, conservative endodontic access, acceptable esthetics
Crown required: Inadequate remaining coronal tooth structure, FDP abutment, RDP abutment, unacceptable esthetics (there is another option…veneer)
Most anterior teeth that require a crown also require a post

Tongue size
House
Class 1: Normal size, development, functionSufficient teeth present to maintain normal form/function
- Class 2: Teeth have been absent long enough to permit a change in the form and function of the tongue
- Class 3: Excessively large tongueAll teeth have been absent for an extended period of time, allowing for abnormal development of the size of the tongue
Inefficient dentures can lead to the development of Class 3 tongue

Do endodontically treated teeth need crowns?
Sorenson and Martinoff, JPD 1984•1233 teeth, 1-25 years
- Anteriors –no significant improvement
- Posteriors –significant improvement
“Crowns should generally be used on endodontically treated posterior teeth but are not necessary on relatively sound anterior teeth.”

Difficult to restore
Lack of :•Dentin walls to retain core
- Dentin to place pins
- Vertical support for post
Delicate root anatomy
Consider custom post/core if increased function
Decision based on remaining tooth structure following crown preparation
Retain all sound dentin
Tear strength and resistance to deformation increases or decreases with time?
Increases
Reason for selecting prefab post/direct core

Define CR?
The maxillo-mandibular relationship in which the condyles articulate with the thinnest avascular portion of their respective disks with the complex in the anterio-superior position against the slopes of the articular eminencies. This position is independent of tooth contact.

What is the optimal post length?
Lab study –ideal is ¾ root length
Post at least equal to crown length or two-thirds the length of the root, whichever is greater, while maintaining an apical seal
What are Applegate’s 8 Rules?
- Classifcation should follow rather than precede extractions that might alter the original classification
- If a third molar is missing and not to be replaced, it is not considered in the classification
- If a third molar is present and is to be used as an abutment, it is considered in the classification
- If a second molar is missing and is not to be repalced, it is not considered in the classification
- The most posterior edentulous area or areas always determines the classification
- Edentulous areas other than those determining the classification are referred to as modification spaces and are designated by their number
- The extent of the modification is not considered, only the number of additional edentulous areas
- There can be no modification areas in class IV arches. Any edentulous area lying posterior to the single bilateral area determines the classification

Indications for a post in molar
Rarely need to retain core
Single prefabricated post in largest canal
Macromechanical and micromechanical (bonding) retention recommended
Core retained by threaded pins, amalgam pins, bonding, post
Bonding decreases with thermocycling and functional loading due to fatigue
What are the five principles that govern prep design
- Preservation of tooth structure
- Retention and resistance
- Structural durability
- Marginal integrity
- Preservation of the periodontium
What is a Kratochvil: I Bar?
- Mesial rest, distal rest in adjacent tooth
- I-bar placed at greatest prominence of facial surface of abutment tooth
- Guide plane: line angle to line angle reciprocation
- proximal plate on long distal guiding plane, from marginal ridge to the tooth-tissue junction and 2 mm onto attached tissue
- Must physiologically adjust metal-tissue contact area with chloroform/rouge
What are 5 factors in implant success?
Ferrule
- Crown restoration ferrule is important
- 1.5-2.0 mm dentin coronal to shoulder is critical
- Maintain facial/lingual dentin on anterior teeth
- *Crown lengthening or orthodontic extrusion may be required vs alternative
biomet 3i prosthetic connection

Tongue position
Wright
Normal: Tongue fills the floor of the mouth confined by the mandibular teeth
lateral borders rest on the occlusal surfaces of posterior teeth
apex rests on the incisal edges of the anterior teeth
there is no aberration in tongue size or activity
Class 1 Retracted: Tongue is retractedfloor of the mouth pulled downward and is exposed back to the molar area
lateral borders raised above the occlusal plane
apex is pulled down into the floor of the mouth
Class 2 Retracted: Tongue is very tense and pulled backward and upwardapex is pulled back in to the body of the tongue and almost disappears
lateral borders rest above the mandibular occlusal plane
floor of the mouth is raised and tense
When should impression for final prosthesis be made
3-4 weeks after extraction
Adequate axial height of the prep should be

- Can function as an indirect retainer in distal extension areas
- Prevents tooth extrusion, food impaction
- Correction of occlusal plane
Guidelines for full coverage of posterior teeth after endo
Posterior teeth are subjected to greater loads directed more vertically
Due to heavy loading and compromised tooth structure, posterior teeth always require “full coverage” after root canal treatment
For posteriors, full coverage = crown or cuspal coverage amalgam
Crown required: FDP or RDP abutment, premolar in the esthetic zone
Many posterior teeth that require a crown do not require a post
Bis acryl advantages and disadvantages
•Advantages
–Good marginal fit
–Low exothermic heat increase
–Good abrasion resistance
–Good transverse strength
–Low shrinkage
•Disadvantages
–Surface hardness
–Less stain resistance
–Limited shade selection
–Limited polishability
–Brittle
–Expensive
–Oxygen-inhibited layer
Advantages of Cusp to Fossa Occlusion
- Forces in line with the long axis of teeth
- Eliminates the “plunger cusp” effect
- Greater stability to the dental arch
- Less tendency towards tooth mobility
Post length recommendation
2/3 the root length
- 1/2 the length of the root in bone
- >Length of clinical crown
- As long as possible with 5 mm of remaining gutta percha
