Q

stretch-relax method
(OVD assessment)

A

-dot on nose and chin
-open wide and hold for 20 seconds
-slowly close until lips first touch
measure distance between dots
-after 10-15 more seconds, close until teeth touch. measure dots again

20
Q

_____ determined by esthetics/phonetics

A

anterior

21
Q

1-2mm incisor teeth visible

A

resting upper lip (level of occlusal plane anterior)

22
Q

displays most of teeth length, but. minimal amount of denture base

A

smiling

23
Q

_______should have positive contact with lower lip when fricative sounds (F V, very funny) are made

A

maxillary incisors

24
Q

should be slightly visible at lower lip

A

mand incisors

25
Q

mandibular molars at height

A

2/3 up RM pads

26
Q

occlusal plane posterior.
plane should be ____ below dorsal surface of resting tongue (below commisure of mouth

A

2-3 mm below

27
Q

occlusal plane posterior should be _____ the two residual ridges and usually bisects the _____ between the ridges

A

parallel

space

28
Q

occlusal plane:
max posterior teeth parallel ____

A

ala-tragus plane (campers plane)

29
Q

max posterior teeth (should/should not) appear to descend posteriorly

A

should not

30
Q

easier to assess - teeth have replaced bulky rims
crowded tongue space can adversely affect this

A

phonetics

31
Q

phonetics:

  1. S, CH- OVD
  2. F, V -incisors hit wet/dry line
A
  1. sibilant sounds
  2. fricative sounds
32
Q

-F, V, fifty-five
-ask patient to count from 50 to 60
- maxillary incisal edges should just touch the posterior 1/3 of the lower lip

A

fricative sounds

33
Q

speech- 5 components
1. lungs:
2. vocal chords:
3. pharynx, mouth, nasal cavity
4. mandible, tongue, lips, soft and hard palate, alveolar ridge and teeth convert sound into meaningful speech
5. a learned activity

A
  1. respiration
  2. phonation
  3. resonance
  4. articulation
  5. neurologic integration
34
Q

A

s sound

35
Q

if speaking space is excessive (more than 3 mm, then:

A

OVD is likely overclosed

36
