- maintain tooth position

-maintain tooth position
ALIGNMENT AND OCCLUSION
OF THE DENTITION (3)
- factors and forces that determine the tooth position
- intra arch alignment
- inter arch alignment
intra arch tooth alignment
the relationship of the teeth to each other within the dental arch
plane of occlusion
plane that curves to fit the occlusal surfaces and incisal edges of all the teeth
plane of occlusion
not
flat
plane of occlusion
teeth positioned in the arches at
varying degrees of inclination
plane of occlusion
- – on the mandible
- – on the maxilla
concave
convex
angulation of the teeth is deterred by the
long axis of the tooth (crown and root)
angulation of the tooth in the (2) plane
sagittal
frontal
ANGULATION OF MANDIBULAR TEETH SAGITAL PLANE anterior teeth: premolars: molars:
labially inclined (20 deg) medially inclined (6 deg) medially inclined (10-15 deg)
ANGULATION OF MAXILLARY TEETH SAGITTAL PLANE anterior teeth: premolars: molars:
labially inclined- central incisor greatest (28 deg) medially inclined (9 deg) medially inclined (13 deg)- crown of the maxillary molars are tilted distally (and labially)
ANGULATION OF MANDIBULAR TEETH FRONTAL PLANE anterior teeth: premolars: molars:
vertical inclination (0 deg)
1st pre- labial inclination (9 deg)
2nd pre- lingual inclination (9 deg)
lingual inclination (20 deg)
ANGULATION OF MAXILLARY TEETH FRONTAL PLANE anterior teeth: premolars: molars:
incisors: distal inclination (2-6 deg)
canines: mesial inclination (17 deg)
slight buccal inclination (5 deg)
buccal inclination (20 deg)
CURVE OF SPEE (2)
- antero-posterior curvature of the occlusal plane
- concave in the mandible, convex in the maxilla
CURVE OF WILSON (2)
- medio-lateral curvature of the occlusal plane
- concave in the mandible, convex in the maxilla
