Study Notes

Occlusion and Malocclusion

  • Overbite refers to the vertical overlap between the maxillary and mandibular incisors.
  • Overjet refers to the horizontal distance between the maxillary and mandibular incisors.

Open Bite (Negative Overbite)

  • Characterized by a lack of vertical overlap between the maxillary and mandibular incisors.

Causes of Open Bite

  • Dental open bite: caused by abnormal eruption patterns or habits such as thumb-sucking.
  • Skeletal open bite: caused by a discrepancy in the size or shape of the maxilla and mandible.

Normal Vertical Overlap

  • Normal vertical overlap between the maxillary and mandibular incisors is 3-5 mm.
  • Ideal range of vertical overlap for the anterior teeth is 2-4 mm.

Deep Bite

  • Characterized by a vertical overlap of the anterior teeth that exceeds the normal range.

Terms in Occlusion

  • The term "buccal clearance" refers to the distance between the buccal surfaces of the maxillary posterior teeth and their mandibular antagonists.
  • "Crossbite" refers to an abnormal relationship of one or more teeth to one or more teeth of the opposing arch, in the buccolingual or labiolingual direction.

Types of Crossbite

  • A narrow maxillary arch can cause a posterior crossbite.
  • An anterior crossbite occurs when one or more of the lower incisors are in front of the upper incisors.
