Class III (skeletal classification)

34
Q
  • Based upon incisor relationship, proposed in 1983.
  • Do not consider molar relationship in some cases.

35
Q

The lower incisor edges occlude with or lie immediately below the cingulum plateau of upper central incisors

A

Class I (British Standard Classification)

36
Q

The lower incisor edges lie posterior to the cingulum plateau of the upper incisors.

A

Ackerman & Proffit’s Classification

52

This system includes Angle’s classification & five characteristics of malocclusion within a Venn diagram.

A

Ackerman & Proffit’s Classification

53
Q

5 major characteristics in Ackerman & Proffit’s Classification?

A
  1. Dentofacial appearance
  2. Teeth/arch form
  3. Transverse (wide/narrow)
  4. Sagittal (A-P; class II/III)
  5. Vertical (deep/open bite)
54
Q

What are the 2 addition to the 5-characteristics classification system?

A
  1. Esthetic line of occlusion
  2. Rotational axes
55
Q
  • In modern analysis, another curved line characterizing the appearance of the dentition is important.
  • This follows the facial edges of the maxillary anterior and posterior teeth.
A

Esthetic line of occlusion

56
Q
  • In addition to relationship in the transverse, anteroposterior and vertical planes of space used in traditional 3-D analysis, rotations around axes perpendicular to three planes also must be evaluated.
  • It’s a useful way to evaluate the relationship of the teeth to the soft tissues that frame their display.
A

Rotation axes

57
Q

What are the 3 rotational axes?

A
  • Pitch
  • Roll
  • Yaw
58
Q
  • The vertical relationship of the teeth to the lips & cheeks can be conventionally described as up-down deviations around the anteroposterior axes.
  • Evaluated clinically & from cephalometric radiographs.
A

Pitch

59
Q
  • Describes the vertical position of the teeth when this is different on the right & left sides.
  • Viewed as up-down deviations around the transverse axes.
  • It’s seen with lips relaxed and more clearly on smile, in both frontal and oblique view
A

Roll

60
Q
  • Rotation of the jaw or dentition to one side or the other, around a vertical axes, produces a skeletal or dental midline discrepancy.
  • Viewed as left-right deviations around the vertical axes.
A

Yaw
