What dental relationship is present in an Angle Class I occlusion?
Orthodontics Answer: 3
1. The buccal cusp of the maxillary second premolar aligns with the mesiobuccal groove of the mandibular first molar.
2. The cusp of the maxillary canine aligns with the cusp of the mandibular canine.
3. The mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first molar aligns with the mesiobuccal groove of the mandibular first molar.
4. The mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first molar aligns with the embrasure between the mandibular first molar and second premolar.
The mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first molar aligns with the mesiobuccal groove of the mandibular first molar.
The part of the removable appliance which provides the anchorage is
1) Adams clasp
2) Base plate
3) Active labial bow
4) Guided springs
Orthodontics Answer: 2
SOLUTION
Baseplate: The hard plastic part of some retainers that covers the gum and has the wire components of the retainers attached to it.
The main disadvantage of uprighting first molar with a loop lingual arch is
1) Extrusion of molars
2) Overcorrection of molars
3) Flaring of mandibular incisors
4) All of the above
Orthodontics
Answer: 3
One of the main disadvantages of using a loop lingual arch to upright the first molar is that it can lead to flaring of the mandibular incisors due to the forces applied.
Ashley-Howe model analysis is used to predict
1) Tooth material excess
2) Maxillo - mandibular relationships
3) Basal bone-transverse relationship
4) Growth prediction
Orthodontics
Answer: 3
Ashley-Howe Model Analysis
The Ashley-Howe model analysis is a method used in
orthodontics to assess the relationship of the dental arches and the position of
the teeth, particularly in the context of planning orthodontic treatment. This
analysis is particularly useful for evaluating the transverse dimension of the
dental arches and understanding how the maxilla (upper jaw) and mandible (lower
jaw) relate to each other.
Measurement Parameters:
The analysis involves measuring specific distances and angles on dental
casts or models. Key measurements may include:
Intercanine Width: The distance between the cusp
tips of the canines.
Interpremolar Width: The distance between the cusp
tips of the first premolars.
Intermolar Width: The distance between the cusp
tips of the first molars.
These measurements help in determining the transverse relationships of
the dental arches.
Classification:
The results of the Ashley-Howe analysis can help classify the dental
arch relationships into different categories, such as:
Normal: Where the measurements fall within the
expected range.
Narrowed: Indicating a constricted arch that may
require expansion.
Widened: Indicating a broader arch that may need to
be reduced or managed differently.
Clinical Application:
The Ashley-Howe model analysis is particularly useful in treatment
planning for orthodontic cases involving:
Crossbites: Where the upper teeth are positioned
inside the lower teeth.
Crowding: Where there is insufficient space for
teeth to erupt properly.
Expansion Needs: Determining if a patient requires
arch expansion to correct transverse discrepancies.
Treatment Implications:
Based on the analysis, orthodontists can decide on appropriate treatment
modalities, which may include:
Orthodontic Appliances: Such as expanders to widen
the arch.
Extraction: In cases of severe crowding or when
space needs to be created.
Comprehensive Orthodontic Treatment: To align the
teeth and improve occlusion.
Which of the following shows 200 % of its adult growth by age 9-10 years
1) Lymphoid
2) General
3) Genital
4) Neural
Orthodontics
Answer: 1
The lymphoid system, which includes lymph nodes, spleen, and other lymphatic tissues, undergoes significant growth during childhood. By the age of 9-10 years, the lymphoid tissue can reach approximately 200% of its adult size due to the increased demand for immune function during this period. This growth is part of the body's preparation for increased exposure to pathogens as children interact more with their environment.
The most common permanent tooth found to be ankylosed is
1) 1st molars
2) 2nd molars
3) Canines
4) Premolars
Orthodontics Answer: 4
ankylosed teeth are also known as submerged teeth.
submerged teeth are decidous teeth most commonly mandibular second molars
Most common permanant tooth found to be ankylosed is premolars.
Servo system theory of Grown was given by
1) Scott
2) Petrovic
3) Limborgh
4) Vander Kaauw
Orthodontics
Answer: 2
The servo system theory, which relates to the control mechanisms in orthodontics, was proposed by Petrov ic (option 2). This theory helps in understanding how forces applied to teeth can be controlled and adjusted to achieve desired tooth movements during orthodontic treatment.
If the edgewise bracket is not pressed completely on to a tooth on the mesial side while bonding, the side effect would be
1. intrusion
2. extrusion
3. rotation
4. breakage of bracket
Orthodontics
Answer: 3
we are applying force distally only..force vector will rotate the tooth distally
