guidance
factors which control protrusive and excursive movements of mandible
* anterior teeth contact (incisors and canines) on working side during excurisve movement
* group function - multiple posterior teeth contacts on working side during excursive movements
* canine - disclusion of teeth on working side - except canines; and absence of non working side contacts during excursive movements
reproducible and protects posterior teeth - preferred
27
ideal features of occlusal contacts
| 3
* lower incisal edges occlude afainst upper cingulum (BSI class I)
* lower buccal cusps and upper palatal cusps occlude against fossa and marginal ridges of opposing teeth
* tripid/cusp tip to base of fossa contacts - forces directed down long axis of tooth
28

* on cuspal inclines
* no contacts
29
features of normal occlusal forces
* contact only in ICP
* short duration

155
risks of whitening
| 9
sensitivity,
wears off/relapse,
allergy,
does not affect restoration colour,
gingival irritation,
cytotoxicity/mutagenicity,
tooth damage,
might not work,
reduced compliance leads to a reduced effect
156
predictors of sensitivity after whitening
| 5
Pre-exisiting sensitivity,
high concentration of bleaching agent,
frequency of technique change,
bleaching method,
gingival recession
157
describe how discolouration occurs
and how external vital bleachin works
Discolouration occurs due to the formation of chemically stable, chromogenic products within the tooth substance.
Whitening causes oxidation through H2O2.
Oxudation leads to the formation of smaller molecules which are often not pigmented and can cause ionic exchange in metallic molecules, leading to a lighter colour
158
indications for external vital bleaching
Age-related darkening,
mild fluorosis,
post-smoking cessation,
tetracycline staining
159
methods of external vital bleaching

Repeat weekly for 3-4 weeks then place white GP in pulp chamber and lighter composite shade
167
