Dentistry Occlusion

Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Crowns tipped lingually - roots tipped laterally






2. Tooth-tooth contacts; tooth-hard objects contacts; tooth-oral tissues contact






3. Curve spee & wilson - 3-d - not proven






4. Can affect the TMJ - muscles of mastication - pulp and integrity of restorations






5. #7 - 26 - 27






6. Mand. retruded-one or more max. incisors retruded; max. laterals protruded-max centrals retruded; crowded max anterior teeth; deep overbite






7. Mb cusp of max 1st molar-buccal groove of mand 1st molar






8. Primary teeth set ___________________ for permanent






9. Lateral mvmt results in contacct of all posterior teeth






10. Malocclusion cause excessive incisal or occlusal wear(attrition); teeth continue to erupt in order to occlude with teeth in the opposite arch & roots become exposed






11. During selective grinding - occlusion should be adjusted In what four relationships






12. Retrognathic profile; buccal groove of mand 1st molar-distal to mb cusp of max 1st; distal of mand. canine distal to mesial to max caniine - tendency toward class II






13. Normal contacts between max. and mand. teeth; momentary contacts






14. Mand. retruded-max. incisors protruded; deep overbite; excessive overjet - abnormal muscle function - short mandible - short upper lip






15. Malposition - crowded anterior teeth - protruded or retruded max incisors - anterior/posterior crossbite - mesial drift






16. A tooth that occludes with an opposing tooth before full closure is achieved in centric occlusion






17. Posterior; no horizontal overlap






18. Individual teeth from each arch can be involved in ________________ malocclusion






19. Maxillary incisors are are lingual to mandibular incisors






20. Relationship of the teeth in opposite arches; static position






21. Usually indicative of moderate to sever perio and secondary occ trauma






22. Incisal 3rd






23. The relationship of the teeth in the mandibular arch to those in the maxillary arch as they are brought together






24. Maximal intercuspation or contact of the max and mand teeth






25. Contact between maxillary incisors does not line up with contact of mandibular incisors






26. Mesognathic profile






27. Class III (mal)occlusion of permanent teeth






28. Retrognathic profile






29. Mobility - migration - pain - premature contact - widening of PDL - parafuntional habits - TMJ problems - all result in _________






30. Buck teeth are common and are considered






31. Need tooth to tooth contact on both working and non working sides to func effectively






32. Tooth extracted






33. A continuation of the spee of to extend through the condyle






34. Cusps of maxillary teeth directly over cusps of mandibular teeth






35. Any occl that produces forces that directly or indirectly cause injury to the attachment apparatus






36. Mand. facial or lingual to max. - unitlateral or bilateral; incorrect horizontal overlap






37. Widening of the PDL in areas under pressure results due to






38. Horizontal






39. Anterior; no horizontal overlap






40. Symptom free dentition that 'survives' or 'adapts' to a deviated occl






41. Mandibular molars and maxillary molars are even






42. Max canine occludes with mand. canine and mand. 1st premolar.






43. Both sides






44. Vertical






45. Patients show evidence or signs and syptoms of occ disease






46. Patient forces teeth together in centric occlusion on one side to get a more functional bite and has a crossbite on the other side(the midline of the maxillary anterior teeth does not line up with the midlineof the mandible






47. Slight buccal inclination of crown - lingual inclination of root






48. Injury to the attachment apparatus (bone - PDL - and cementum) as a consequence of normal or excessive occ forces






49. Relationship of teeth in which the incisal ridges or buccal cusp ridges of the maxillary anterior teeth extend facially to the incisal ridges/cusps of the mandibular teeth when the teeth are in centric occlusion relationship






50. If the mandible moves to the left - the mvmt is known as a left working movement
