Questions and Answers

What is the significance of healthy TMJs in the context of making new dentures?

  • Healthy TMJs ensure proper registration of jaw relation records (correct)
  • Healthy TMJs lead to deeper sulcus after the sulcus deepening procedure
  • Healthy TMJs prevent the need for nutritional counseling
  • Healthy TMJs reduce the need for adjunctive care

What is the purpose of the assessment during the diagnosis appointment in the context of speech and neuromuscular activity?

  • To assess the condition of the residual ridge morphology
  • To evaluate the need for surgical improvement of denture support
  • To identify existing problems and determine the potential for improvement (correct)
  • To determine the need for nutritional counseling

What is a potential complication of unhealthy TMJs in complete denture treatment?

  • Reduced need for tissue conditioning
  • Inability to position the mandible in a correct and repeatable centric relation (correct)
  • Improved registration of jaw relation records
