Q

What are some of the common consequences of tooth loss?

A
  1. Bone resorption - can lead to high frenum/muscle attachment
  2. Overreruption of opposing tooth
  3. Medially/distally drifting/tilting of adjacent tooth/teeth
  4. Occlusal disharmony affecting function
  5. Change in speech and aesthetic

Q

What are some of the way we can classified removable dentures?

A
  1. Based on location of missing teeth - partial vs comlete
  2. Based on materials - acrylic, valplast, crhome
  3. Based on support - tissue or tooth or combined
  4. Construction methods - immediate vs conventional

77
Q

What is the centric relation?

A

It is the retruted contact position. It is the maxillo-mandibular relationship independent of tooth contact. This CAN BE RECORDED IN EDENTULOUS PATIENT. You can ensure that the patient is in centric relation by asking them to go through repeated movement of protrusion and retrusion in order to arrive at the centric relation.

78
Q

What is centric occlusion?

A

It is the intercuspation position. It is the occlusion of opposing teeth when the mandible is in centric relation. This may or may not coincide with maximum intercuspal position

79
Q

What is centric postion?

A

It is position of the mandible when the jaws are in centric relation

80
Q

What is balanced static occlusion?

A

It is a balanced occlusion

81
Q

What us balanced dynamic occlusion?

A

It is a balanced articulation

82
Q

What is occlusion?

A

Verb - It is the act or process of closure or of being closed or shut off.

Noun - It is also the static relationship between the incising or masticating surface of the maxillary or mandibular teeth or tooth analogues

83
Q

What is an occlusal surface?

A

It is a surface of a posterior tooth or occlusion rim that is inteded to make contact with an opposing occlusal surface

84
Q

What is the occlusal plane?

A

It is the average plane established by the incisal and occlusal surfaces of the teeth

85
Q

What is posselt’s envelope of motion?

A

The posselt’s envelope of motion looks at the following aspects of incisor potion through the movement of the mandible?

  1. Intercuspal position (ICP) aka cnetric occlusion
  2. Retruted contact position (RCP) aka centric relation
  3. Edge-to-edge articulation (E)
  4. Maximal opening without condylar translation of the condyle (rotation only)(R)
  5. Maximal mandibular opening with translation of condyle (T)
  6. Protrusion (Pr)
86
Q

What is centric relation?

A

It is the maxillo-mandibular relationship independent of tooth contact

87
Q

What is centric position? What is important about it?

A

It is the position of the mandible when the jaws are in centric relation. This is a reproducible position

88
Q

What are clinical applications of centric relationship

A

When you have a full denture:

During bite registration you need to take an impression of the centric relation

While in try in and insert you need to assess the centric occlusion

When you have a partial denture:

During bite registration you need to take an impression of the centric occlusion

While in try in and insert you need to look at centric occlusion or maximal intercuspal position

89
Q

What is the natural rest position?

A

It is the occlusal vertical dimension + 2-4 mm

90
Q

What determines the OVD?

A

OVD is determined by the contact between natural teeth. If there is no natural teeth - please estimate OVD by subtracting from natural resting position

91
Q

What are the 3 types of occlusion?

A
  1. Balanced occlusion - the best type of occlusion - when is a balanced intercuspal position on anterior and posterior teeth - best of denture stability and create pressure to retain the bridge.
  2. Monoplane occlusion
  3. Lingualised occlusion - the elimination of buccal cusp contact - may be used if the patient has a modified occlusion due to skeletal and other reasons
92
Q

What are the Hanau’s Quint factors affecting occlusal balance?

A
  1. Incisal guidance - greater incisal guidance results in greater posterior teeth separation
  2. Condylar inclination - steeper condylar inclination results in greater tooth separating during protrusive movemenet
  3. Occlusal plane inclination - greater occlusal plant inclination results in greater tooth separation during protrusive movememnt
  4. Compensating curve - lower cruve of Spee results in greater separation duing protrusive movement
  5. Cuspal inclination/ cusp height - greater separation results in greater cusp height
93
Q

What is the curve of monson?

A

Combination of Curve of Spee and Surve of Wilson

94
Q

What is the significance of compensating curves in rem pros?

A

It is to compensate for the path of mandibular movement from centric to eccentric occlusion

95
Q

What is the working side and what is balancing side?

A

Working side - the mandible moves towards it during chewing - usually the same side as the food is - will have a contact

Balancing side - oppsite to the working side

In natural occlusion 0 the teeth contact on the working side but do not contact on the balancing side

96
Q

What are the Gysi’s and French’s concepts of occlusion?

A

Gysi’s concept:

Cusped teeth with inclination of 33 degrees and occlusion on working side and no occlusion on balancing side

French’s concept:

Teeht are at 5-10 inclination and during mastication, balancing side has slight contact for stability

97
Q

What are the steps to recording occlusion in removable complete dentures?

A
  1. Horizontal dimension - record centric relation
  2. Vertical dimension - estimate new OVD by taking 2-4mm away from resting vertical dimension
  3. If patient previous Angle’s Molar classification was II or III - try to set up complete denture for Class I
98
Q

What are some of the desired properties of denture occlusion?

A
  1. Effieicient function
  2. Minimal contact areas
  3. Bilateral balanced occlusion
  4. Balancing on working side and no interference on balancing side
  5. Anterior clearance during masticatory function
  6. Cusp height, condylar guidance based on ridge height - if ridgr is low, the teeth might have to be anatomy free
99
Q

What are the difference between natural and artificial occlusion?

A
  1. Natural teeth retained by periodontal tissue - denture teeth are not
  2. Natural teeth move independently - denture teeth move as a unit
  3. Malocclusion in natural dentition may not cause any symptoms for yeras - in denture teeth there will be an immediate response
  4. In natural teeth, second molar is one of the power points of mastication - in denture teeth this may cause a shifting of the denture base
  5. Bilateral balance during excusrion is rare in natural teeth - in dentured teeth it is required for stabilisation of denture base
  6. Proprioceptors guide neuromuscular control during function, meaning mandible return to centric occlusion - if any interference occurs in dentured teeth, denture base shift and may be dislodged

Q

What is the clinical significance of curve of Spee and Curve of Wilson in dentures?

A
  1. Curve of Spee os designed to permite protrusive disocclusion of the posterior teeth by combination of anterior and condylar guidance
  2. Curve of Wilson permits lateral mandibular excursion free from posterior interference
101
Q

A
  1. Facial height and shape
  2. Soft tissue support
  3. Smile line
  4. Facial and dental symmetry
  5. Shade and mould
  6. Crown height
  7. Anterior zone width
  8. Gingival display of upper incisors
  9. Buccal corridor ration
  10. Last vissible tooth while smiling
102
Q

What can compromise competent lip seal?

A
  1. Excessive occlusal vertical dimension
  2. Excessive overjet or proclination of upper anterior teeth
  3. Excessive upper incisal length
103
Q

What is the lip line?

A

It is the imaginary line that is drawn at the inferior border of the upper lip and extend mesio-distally

104
Q

What is the smile line?

A

It is the vertical tooth display in smiling or elevation of the upper lip when smiling in relation to upper incisors. Average smile line is around 77-100% height of maxillary teeth and interdental pappillae

105
Q

What is a smile arc?

A

Imaginary line along upper anterior edges and the superior border of the lower lip

106
Q

Where does the facial symmetry line lye?

A

The maxillary midline, mandibular and the filtrum but mandibular midline could be sacrificed

107
Q

What is the ideal buccal corridor ratio?

A

it is 1:1.618 of the length of the corresponding smile zone side aka the length of the canine + second incisor + first incisor

108
Q

When would you select no-anotomical teeth for a denture?

A

For partial: If anatonical teeth have been severley worn

For full: If the alveolar ridges are poor and there is uncoordinated jaw movements
