Q

Lip Prominence Eval

A

Distance that each lip projects forward from a true vertical line through the depth of the concavity at its base
* Forward of line=Prominent
* Behind line=retrusive

Helpful to Draw E-line (Esthetic)
* nose to chin
* Lips should be on e-line

Consider size of nose and chin:
Larger the nose
* more prominent the chin needs to be to balance
* greater amount of lip prominence accepted
Nasolabial Angle
* Normal=Mild obtuse

Q

Buccal Corridors

A

Distance b/w max posteriors (premolars) to inside of cheek
Another way to eval dental arch width
* Max dental arch width is proportional to midface width
* Broad smile=large midface/zygomatic arch width
* Narrow Smile=Narrow midface width
* ideal: 16%
* Male: 15-24%
* Female: 10-17%

Negative Space:
* Very Wide BC’s
* unesthic
* improve smile by: widen max arch

Minimal BCs:
* Females

No BCs:
* Unesthetic
* broad upper arch

Q

Smile Arc

A

Incisal edge contours of max anterior teeth relative to lower lip curvature during a social smile
* Best apperance: Consonant-curvature of Lower lip is parallel to curvature of max incisors
* M/F: 1.8-3.8 mm K9 above incisal edge

Most important factor in smile esthetics
* only factor that can change smile to unesthetic by itself

Flat Smile Arc (non-consonant)
2 problems:
* less attractive
* Look oldder

23
Q

Inclination of Upper teeth: Tip L or R

A
  • > 2 mm from normal=Unesthic
24
Q

What are 2 important components of appearance in Tooth Proportions

A
  1. Tooth widths in relation to one another
  2. Height-Width prooprtions of individual teeth
25
Q

Ideal Tooth Width Proportion

A

Golden Proportion: 62%
* 1.0:0.62:0.38:0.24
* Lateral Incisor: 62% of central incisor width
* Through 1st premolar

26
Q

Central Incisor Tooth Proportions

A

Max Central Incisors:
* Height: 10.4-11.2
* Width: 80% of Height (8.37-9.3)

27
Q

If Maxillary Central Incisor Height is short, what are the possible causes? Possible Tx?

A

Possible Causes:
* Incomplete eruption in childhood=further development corrects
* Attrition in adults= restore missing part of crown
* Xs gingival height: Crown Lengthening
* Crown form distortion: facial Lamenette or complete crown

28
Q

Connector

A

aka interdental contact
Where adjacent teeth appear to touch
Includes:
* contact point
* area above and below contact point

Decrease in size from centrals to posteiors
* moves apically

Short Connector=part of problem w/black triangles

29
Q

Embrassures

A

Triangular spaces incial and gingival to contact
* ideal=larger than connectors

Gingival Embrasure:
* filled w/interdental papilla

Incisor Embrasure:
* Larger from central to premolars
* contact points move more gingival from central to premolars

30
Q

Black Triangle

A

Short interdental papilla
* open gingival embrassure above connector

Adults: Due to:
* perio disease=loss of gingival tissue
* ortho corrects crowded and rotated max incisors; connetor moves incisal

Reshape teeth to correct
* move contact pt apically
* lengthen connector

31
Q

Ideal Gingival Margin Levels for Centrals/Lateral/K9s

A

Centrals:
* highest gingival margin level

Lateral:
* 1.5 mm lower than centrals

K9:
* Same level as centrals

32
Q

Gingival Contour of Centrals/Lateral/K9s

A

Centrals:
* Horizontal half ellipse
* zenith=distal to midline

Laterals:
* Half-circle
* Zenith=midline of tooth

K9:
* vertical half ellipse
* zenith=distal to midline

33
Q

Norman Kingsley

A
  • 1850s-1st text describing ortho
  • 1st to use extraoral force
  • Pioneer in cleft palate tx
34
Q

Edward H. Angle

A

Father of Modern Ortho
* 1890: Concept of Occlusion

35
Q

Angles Postulates

A

Upper 1st molars were the key to occlusion
* MB cusp of upper molar occlueds in B groove of lower molar
* Normal Occlusion=correct line of occlusion (caternary line) + normal molar relationship

Best esthetics were achieved when pt had ideal occlusion

36
Q

Angles Classes of Malocclusion

A

Class 1:
* Normal relationship of molars
* Incorrect line of occlusion due to malposed teeth, rotations, other causes

Class 2:
* Lower molar distally positioned relative to upper molar

Class 3:
* Lower molar mesially positioned relative to upper molar

37
Q

Soft Tissue Paradigm

A

Soft Tissue Relationships
* determine Goals & Treatment of modern ortho & orthognathic tx
* Not teeth and bones

Increased Focus on clinical exam
* instead of dental casts and radiographs

38
Q

Compare Angle vs Soft Tissue Paradigm:
1. Primary Tx Goal
2. Secondary Tx Goal
3. Hard & Soft Tissue Relationships
4. Diagnostic emphasis
5. Treatment Approach
6. Functional emphasis

A
40
Q

Posterior Cross Bite

A

Lingually positioned Max posterior teeth
* relative to mandibular teeth

Narrow max dental arch

41
Q

What differences does soft tissue paradigm make in planning tx?

A

Primary Goal of Tx=Soft tissue relationship and adaptations
* Major determinants of facial appearance
* Determine stability of ortho

Secondary Goal=Functional Occlusion
* TMJ Dysfunction: result of soft tissue injury around TMJ
* arrange occlusion to minimize

Reverse Thought process in solving the patients problems
* Past: Focus on Dental & Skeletal relationships and ST would take care of itself
* Now: Establish ST relationship then determine how teeth and jaws would have to arrange to meet goal

42
Q

Overjet

A

Horizontal overlap of incisors
* Ideal AP incisor relationship=1/3 US pop
* Overjet + Class 2 malocclusion=more prevalent (Vs reverse overjet + class 3)

Normal: upper incisors ahead of lower by incisal edge thickness
* 2-3 mm

Reverse Overjet
* Aka anterior crossbit
* lower incisors are in front of upper incisors

43
Q

Overbite

A

Vertical overlap of incisors
* Ideal Vertical Relatinship: 50% of US
* Deep bite is more prevlaent than open

Normal: Lower incisor edge contact lingual surface of upper
* 1-2 mm

Openbite:
* no vertical overlap
* quantify by measuring the seperation of incisors

44
Q

Line of Occlusion:

A

Catenary Curve: passes through
Maxilla:
* molar=central fossa
* k9/incisors=cingulum

Mandible:
* Molar: B cusp
* Mandible: incisal edges

45
Q

Irregularity index

A

incisor irregularity
* total mm distance from contact pt on each incisor to contact point it should have
* More prevalent in mandibular arch
* 1/3 US Pop have at least moderate irregular incisors
* 15% severe/extreme

46
Q

Diastema

A

Space b/w adjacent teeeth
Maxillary Midline Diastema:
* common in mixed dentition

49
Q

Tooth Size Analysis

A

Aka Bolton Analysis
Assume comparable inclinations of teeth

Steps:
1. measure M-D width of every tooth
2. add each arch
3. Calculate overall and anterior ratios by dividing Mandibular/Maxillary
4. Compare to Table

Idea:
* overall ratio=0.913
* anterior ratio: 0.772

50
Q

Tooth Size discrepancy

A

Tooth Size disproportion
* upper centrals=most common
* <1.5=not significant

Anterior Tooth size discrepancy
* compare upper and lower lateral incisors
* If uppers NOT wider than lowers=discrepancy

Posterior tooth size discrepancy:
* compare 2nd premolars
* should be equal
