11
Q
How does a flat anterior bite plane work?
A
it works to decrease the pt overbite
it increases the vertical dimension allowing overeruption of posteriors and raises bite
OJ + 3mm = so lowers don’t stop behind bite plane causing trauma and retroclining them
12
Q
Flat posterior bite plane
A
will disengage the bite allowing teeth to move forward

28
Soft tissues of class II div 1
incompotent lips due to prominence of incisors and underlying skeletal pattern
29
Dental factors of class 2 div 1

surgery when growth complete
34

37
Functinonal appliances
Restrain maxilla and encourage mandibular growth (twin block)
Tooth growth not growth modifcation - distal movement of upper dentition and retrocline of upper incisors, mesial movement of lower incisors and proclination of lower incisors
38

Used for mild or moderate discrepancy
if used for severe can flatten face and poor appearance
39
