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. Tooth extracted






2. Tongue thrust or thumb sucking can cause






3. II (mal)occlusion






4. What is not affected by occ trauma






5. Overlap of anterior teeth






6. Any deviation from the ideal or normal occl. includes crowding - malpositioned or tipped teeth






7. Starts closer to the posterior of the 1st molar






8. Maximum touching of max and mand






9. Mandibular molars and maxillary molars are even






10. The side to which the mandible moves(chewing side)






11. The permanent molars erupt posterior to the primary teeth and push them all mesially






12. Curved alignment of the occlusal plane when looking from a posterior view(right to left)






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






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






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






16. Hereditary - Tongue - Intercuspation of teeth - Alignment of previously erupted teeth affects alignment of successive teeth






17. Anterior; no horizontal overlap






18. Occlusal guard =






19. Posterior; no horizontal overlap






20. Laterally






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






22. Maxillary incisors are are lingual to mandibular incisors






23. Horizontal distance of anterior teeth in crossbite






24. Maximum interlocking of cusp






25. Later






26. Associated with performance; all contacts during function of the oral cavity






27. Introduced the concept of codestruction






28. Above occlusal plane






29. High restoration - parafunctional habits - malpositioned tooth - periapical abcess - physical 'blow' - removable partial - ortho mvmt






30. Starts closer to premolars






31. Guidance for protrusive occ should be on the






32. When the jaws are closed - the buccal cusps of the mandibular posterior teeth are interlocked between the buccal & lingual cusps of the maxillary teeth






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






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






35. Occlusal forces will accelerate the rate of perio destruction and result in CT attachment loss in the presence of preexisting inflammation






36. Both sides






37. Functional occlusion






38. Crowns tipped lingually - roots tipped laterally






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






40. Teeth that are in func when the mandible moves in lateral or protrusive excursions or mvmts






41. Lateral mvmt results in contact btwn the max and mand canines






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






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






44. ____ is not a sign of occl trauma






45. Muscles that work the jaw; may become sore due to occ trauma






46. Congenitally missing teeth - Impacted teeth & size and shape of muscle and bone






47. 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






48. Retrognathic profile -buccal groove of mand. 1st molar-distal to mb cusp of 1st max.molar -distal of mand canine distal to mesial of max canine - tendency towards class II






49. Maxillary overlap mandibular; whole arch






50. Anterior or posterior; bilateral or unitlateral - anterior more common
