Questions and Answers

What is the optimal magnitude of force that is developed from the extraoral appliance on the maxilla?

  • Tooth shape and size discrepancies
  • Between 400 – 600 gr per side (correct)
  • Between 50 – 70 gr per side
  • Over 1500 gr per side
  • Which dentition and which groups of teeth are most affected from change in the tooth shape and size?

  • Only the primary teeth are affected
  • Only the group of the premolars
  • -Incisors and Canines
  • Both primary and permanent dentition are affected but most often - the incisors (correct)
  • What do we observe extraorally and intraorally when there is tooth size discrepancy?

  • Extraorally – increase in the size of the mouth, intraorally – teeth with irregular structure
  • Extraorally – small mouth size, intraorally – small dental arches (correct)
  • Extraorally – usually no change, intraorally – teeth with alteration in their size
  • -Extraorally – large chin size, intraorally – crowded teeth
  • What is the name of the discrepancy when the teeth differ in their size according to the standard norm?
