/1 retrusive
/1 to NB- what does it represent and what is the norm?
Axial relationship of mandibular incisor, 25 degrees
/1 to NB- what does it represent? What is the norm?
Antero-posterior position of the mandibular incisor (norm 4mm)
1 / to NA represents? What is the norm?
Antero-posterior position of the maxillary incisor (4mm is norm)
1/ to NA < 22 degrees

1 /to NA angle- what does it represent?What is the norm?
Axial relationship of maxillary incisor (norm is 22 degrees)
1/1 axial relationship < 131
incisor recumbency
1/1 axial relationship > 131
incisor procumbency
ANB > 2 or < 2
Dental base discrepancy
All growth in the mandible occurs where?
Posterior to the second molar
Anterior crossbite (single tooth) in the permanent dentition- how to treat?
Fixed or removeable appliance,
Be aware of potential funcitonal shift
Defer periodontal surgery until crossbite corrected
Anterior displacement without reduction- what treatment?
What do you usually see clinically?
ROM typically limited
Symptomalogy dictates treatment- Repositioning splint, may require surgery, patients frequently able to function without reduction
Around what structure is palatal closure oriented?
At incisive foramen- secondary palate zips closed from anterior to posterior, primare palate zips closed from posterior to anterior
At what rate do premolars erupt through bone?
about 1 mm every 4-5 months
Branchial grooves (cleft-outer surface) gives rise to?
External auditory meatus, cervical sinus
Can ectopically erupting permanent canines be prevented?
How would one do this?
Can potentially be prevented.
Extract primary canines (and first molars)
If Class II molar relationship, consider headgear therapy early.
Cartilagenous growth theory?
Theory that cartilagenous growth is the primary determinant of craniofacial growth
Nasal septum theory of craniofacial growth- Latham
Septomaxillary ligament
Computer forecasts of growth vs. average changes?
In studies it has been shown that there is no significant difference in accuracy
Cranial vault forms by what mode of bone formation?
Intramembraneous
Cranium vs. Maxilla vs. Mandible in terms of completion of growth?
Follows a gradient- cranium grows first, mandible grows last.
Development definition
increase in complexity- fertilized egg to embryo
Diagnosis of maxillary frenum that may need removal?
Stretch frenum and look for gingival blanching or displacement.
Different areas of the face tend to do what with respect to groth?
Grow at different times and rates
