Noteworthily, the first molar values were approximately 90° relative to the FOP. The major emphasis should be on guiding or directing the condyles to their most superoanterior positions in the fossae. ECCENTRIC OCCLUSION:“An occlusion other than centric occlusion”. However, this position is not the sound orthopedically stable joint position dedicated by the elevator muscles. As total restoration of the dentition became more feasible, controversy arose regarding the desirability of balanced occlusion in the natural dentition. Functional analysis to: a. determine functional factors associated with the malocclusion; b. detect deleterious habits; and c. detect temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), which may require additional diagnostic procedures. The directional force of the primary elevator muscles (temporalis, masseter, and medial pterygoid) is to seat the condyles in the fossae in a superoanterior position. In pursuing the most stable position for the TMJs, the muscles that pull across the joints must be considered. Nevertheless, despite this controversy, dentists must provide needed treatment for their patients. “THE CLINICIAN MANAGING THE MASTICATORY STRUCTURES NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND BASIC ORTHOPEDIC PRINCIPLES.”. The maxillary lateral teeth are angulated more mesially than the mandibular ones relative to the FOP. Posterior force to the mandible can displace the condyle from the musculoskeletally stable position. First premolars tended to express this more than the second premolars but the tipping values were roughly 90º relative to the FOP on the first molars. The major muscles that stabilize the TMJs are the elevators. Occlusion according to The Glossary of Prosthodontic Terms Ninth Edition is defined as 'the static relationship between the incising or masticating surfaces of the maxillary or mandibular teeth or tooth analogues'.. There is a very thin bone located in the superior aspect of the fossa. Measurement error was determined by duplicate measurements of all the variables in a 1-month interval. As in any other joint, positional stability is determined by the muscles that pull across the joint and prevent dislocation of the articular surfaces. It was accepted so completely that patients with any other occlusal configuration were considered to have a malocclusion and were often treated merely because their occlusion did not conform to the criteria thought to be ideal. In order to examine the characteristics of the cranio-fac … for certain extended or border joint movements. The term centric relation has been used in dentistry for many years.

The underlying mechanism may reasonably be assumed as follows: The first molar erupts toward the end of the deciduous dentition, at around 6 years of age, and then, the deciduous teeth are replaced by the permanent teeth in the mixed dentition. If you continue to use this site we will assume that you are happy with it. Note that the most superior and posterior (or retruded) position of the condyle is not a physiologically or anatomically sound position (Figure 5-5). The t-test was used to compare the mesiodistal angulation between maxilla and mandible. The condyles are not down the posterior sloop of the eminences. the limitations of defining each lateral occlusion scheme, as the occlusal presentation is naturally more complex 17. Dynamic occlusion that occurs on the canines (on the working side) during lateral excursions of the mandible. 3) or by discrepancies in the upper and lower arch widths (Thilander and Lennartsson 2002). condyles are in an orthopedically stable position. The study design adhered to the tenets of the amended Declaration of Helsinki and approved by the Local Ethics Committee. They are in normal range in Japanese standards. Their role is to act as limiting structures for certain extended or border joint movements. Progressive mesial tipping of the maxillary lateral teeth was observed.

Five cephalometric variables are shown in Table 1. Furthermore, progressive mesial tipping of the maxillary lateral teeth was detected, of which axial angulations were significantly correlated to each other, in spite the mandibular premolars and molars being angulated in a similar fashion. Scan D is a 2-D frame showing the first closure contacts. Positional stability of the joint, however, is not determined by the articular disc. This position is therefore considered to be the most musculoskeletally stable position of the mandible. It is thus anticipated hopefully to use 3D imaging techniques,[16,17] which provide additional detail information about the positional relationship between the first molar root and the lateral teeth germs, in the normal and crowding cases. Balanced occlusion and articulation refers to occlusion with simultaneous bilateral contacts of the occlusal surface of the teeth in all mandibular positions. Pick the following correct statements when considering border and functional movements in a sagittal plane: I. [3] However, these results were based on only two cases evaluated using plaster models. SD â Standard deviation; FH â Frankfort horizontal; FOP â Functional occlusal plane. The most superoposterior position of the condyles is therefore by definition a ligamentous position. and were treated according to the six keys for normal occlusion and functional occlusal parameters (centric relation, vertical dimension, lateral and anterior guidances, occlusal contacts and direction of forces applied on the teeth). It was during this time that the term gnathology was first used. This does not suggest that all patients must have these features to be healthy. Examination of the dried skull reveals that this area of the articular eminence is quite thick and physiologically able to withstand force. This lateral functional shift may be caused only by a premature contact (etiology No. Learn vocabulary, terms, and more with flashcards, games, and other study tools. The condyles are not down the posterior sloop of the eminences. By way of summary, then, the most orthopedically stable joint position as dictated by the muscles occurs when the condyles are located in their most superoanterior position in the articular fossae, fully seated and resting against the posterior slopes of the articular eminences. Occlusion is determined by the shape of the head, jaw length and width and the position of the teeth. Dynamic occlusion was determined in regulated lateral (0.5 mm and 3 mm lateral to the intercuspal position) and protrusive movements of the mandible by intraoral examination with the aid of shimstock. Forward movement of the mandible brings the condyles down the articular eminences. Canine Protected Occlusion: During the lateral excursion contact occurs only between the upper and lower canines and first premolar on the working side. In fact, this is a normal protrusive position of the mandible. When spaces between dentition are closed through orthodontics or natural forces following tooth loss, the resultant mesial drift of the maxillary dentition can create inappropriate esthetics. [12,13] Therefore, maxillary anterior crowding with high canines and slight mandibular incisor crowding may involve completely different mechanisms; however, the cause of this malocclusion has not been fully elucidated. Incisal guidance, condylar guidance, sagittal curve of Spee and lateral curve of Monson are inter-linked to illustrate how these factors of occlusion influence occlusal anatomy. Therefore when force is applied to this area, there is a great potential for eliciting pain and/or causing breakdown.24–28. 1. obstruction. Therefore every mobile joint has a musculoskeletally stable position. The temporal muscles position the condyles superiorly in the fossae. The paired t-test was used to compare the intraobserver differences; a two-tailed P < 0.05 was regarded as significant in this analysis. Further, the first molar is located perpendicular to the FOP in most patients. P < 0.05 was regarded as critically significant in these analyses. However, these features should represent treatment goals for the clinician who plans to alter a patient’s occlusion for the purpose of either eliminating an occlusion-related disorder or restoring a mutilated dentition. [5] Such finding may explain why crowded maxillary lateral teeth germs are encountered frequently during panoramic radiograph analysis. In a previous study the crowns of the maxillary lateral teeth had erupted mesially in relation to the functional occlusal plane (FOP) in patients with Angle Class I malocclusion and highly erupted canines, which had been uprighted by non-extraction orthodontic treatment, yet these results were based on only two cases evaluated by using plaster models. On the other hand, the mean axial angulations of the mandibular canine, first premolar, second premolar, and first molar were 77.3°, 85.2°, 85.4°, and 84.4°, respectively. To position the condyles downward and forward on the posterior slopes of the articular eminences, the inferior lateral pterygoid muscles must contract. The mean values in the axial angulations were compared by repeated measures analysis of variance followed by Scheffeâs test among lateral teeth. Maxillary anterior crowding with high canines and malposition of the mandibular incisors is a typical example. Its usefulness in this context was substantiated both by its reproducibility and early research studies associated with muscle function.12,13. The elephant in the room of temporomandibular joint disorders, occlusion, and functional disease is force—repetitive force that exceeds the patient’s capacity to adapt. Introduction. DORLAND’S MEDICAL DICTIONARY defines the verb occlude as “to close tight, as to bring the mandibular teeth into contact with the teeth in the maxilla.”1 In dentistry, occlusion refers to the relationship of the maxillary and mandibular teeth when they are in functional contact during activity of the mandible. Studies of the mandibular chewing cycle demonstrate that in healthy subjects the rotating (working) condyle moves posterior to the intercuspal position during the closing portion of the cycle (Chapter 2). ISSN (Print): 2321-4600ISSN (Online): 2321-1407, Address for Correspondence: Dr. Hiroshi Ueda, Hiroshima University, 1-2-3 Kasumi, Minami-Ku, Hiroshima, Japan. While the first molar roots are forming and completing calcification, at around 6 and 9 years of age, respectively, the first and second premolar germs are close to the first molar and located at the same level as the first molar roots in the maxillary mixed dentition. Most patients who have a unilateral posterior crossbite shift their mandibles toward the side of the crossbite when closing into centric occlusion. Since these muscles can provide heavy forces, the potential for damage to these three sites is high. b. The question that arises is: What is the best functional relationship or occlusion of the teeth? Over the years several concepts of occlusion have been developed and have gained varying degrees of popularity. This result in disclusion of allcontact with the other. 3. are located in their most superoanterior position in the articular fossae, fully seated and resting against the posterior slopes of the articular eminences. Although the temporal muscles have fibers that are oriented posteriorly, they nevertheless predominantly elevate the condyles in a straight superior direction.20 These three muscle groups are primarily responsible for joint position and stability; however, the inferior lateral pterygoids also make a contribution. It is therefore necessary to examine and evaluate all available information in order to draw intelligent conclusions on which treatment can be based. No significant differences in the axial angulation of the second premolars. Start studying Functional Occlusion - GDS. The intraobserver variation in the measurements was considered very small when compared with the measurement error (P < 0.01). Although many concepts exist, the study of occlusion is so complex that these questions have not been satisfactorily answered. Such a border relationship would not be considered optimal for any other joint. This tendency was more prominent in the first premolar than in the second premolar, because the first premolar is not prevented from tipping mesially before the eruption of the canine. As discussed in Chapter 7, there are great variations among healthy populations. The problem facing dentistry today is apparent when a patient with the signs and symptoms of occlusion-related pathology comes to the dental office for treatment. The use of a stable orthopedic position is essential to treatment. The popularity of the concept of CR grew and was soon carried over into the field of fixed prosthodontics. FUNCTIONAL OCCLUSION:“Refers to tooth contacts that occur in the segment of the arch towards which the mandible moves”. The proper plane of occlusion will permit simultaneous functional contacts to occur in controlled areas of the dental arch. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) normal horizontal and vertical skeletal relationships (Frankfort-mandibular plane angle [FMA]: 20â 36.5°); (2) Angleâs Class I molar relationship; (3) ALD <1 mm; (4) normal arch lengths and widths on maxillary and mandibular dentitions;[6] and (5) normal mesiodistal crown size. The increased mesial axial angulation of the maxillary lateral teeth may have the possibility to cause space deficiency for the alignment. Today the term centric relation is somewhat confusing since its definition has changed. Its incidence is high compared with the various malocclusions. Functional Occlusion in Restorative Dentistry and Prosthodontics provides a full-color, comprehensive guide to occlusion, with coverage ranging from an explanation of biological principles to treatment planning and clinical procedures. The controversy regarding the most physiologic position of the condyles will continue until conclusive evidence showing that one position is more physiologic than the others is found. When a dried skull is examined, the anterior and superior roof of the mandibular fossa can be seen to be quite thick and physiologically able to withstand heavy loading forces.19,20 This is also seen in cadaver specimens (Figure 5-3). In addition, the axial angulations were significantly correlated to each other. This can be accomplished either by a bilateral mandibular guiding technique or by the musculature itself (as discussed in later chapters). The development of these concepts is examined below. The occlusal contacts were recorded with occlusion foil in three lateral excursions: 1, 2 and 3 mm from the maximum intercuspation. Cephalograms were obtained with the subjects seated in the upright position and the Frankfort horizontal (FH) plane parallel to the floor. The concept was widely accepted; with advances in dental instrumentation and technology, it carried over into the field of fixed prosthodontics.4,5. Isolated lateral STEMI is less common, but may be produced by occlusion of smaller branch arteries that supply the lateral wall, e.g. The cephalometric variables in the normal occlusion, Comparison of the axial angulations of the lateral teeth, Correlation coefficients of the axial angulations of the lateral teeth, Orthodontics: Current Principles and Techniques. This area is not developed to support loading. Dynamic occlusion was determined in regulated lateral (0.5 mm and 3 mm lateral to the intercuspal position) and protrusive movements of the mandible by intraoral examination with the aid of shimstock. The directional forces of these muscles determine the optimal orthopedically stable joint position. Why would this orthopedic principle be any different for the TMJ? In addition, the maxillary and mandibular dentitions show different patterns of crowding,[4] even if tooth-size/jaw-size discrepancy is the cause of crowding in both the arches. 3. the relation of the teeth of both jaws when in functional contact during activity of the mandible. The major differences between this position and the MS position lie in muscle function and mandibular stability. Jacobson[7] concluded that a representative FOP would be a more appropriate plane for craniofacial analysis. Each subject was instructed to swallow, lightly contact the molars to bring the mandible into the natural intercuspal position, and breathe naturally during radiography. •The occlusion is considered acceptable if the patient is functioning efficiently and without pathosis - Okeson • As a clinician, you must know what pathosis looks When the elevator muscles (the masseter, medial pterygoid, and temporalis) function, their contraction raises the mandible such that contact is made and force is applied to the skull in three areas: the two temporomandibular joints (TMJs) and the teeth (Figure 5-1). This is reckoned to be a good thing, as canines are excellent at coping with lateral forces. The natural head posture was determined by visual feedback in a mirror. 3 This concept advocate Published by Scientific Scholar on behalf of Asian Pacific Orthodontic Society. Understanding perfectly those concepts will not only help you score more points in the dental hygiene board exams but will also make you a stellar clinician that everyone would want to work with! However, this position is not the sound orthopedically stable joint position dedicated by the elevator muscles. We use cookies to ensure that we give you the best experience on our website. Treatment of Chronic Mandibular Hypomobility and Growth Disorders, Management of Temporomandibular Disorders and Occlusion. In the postural position, without any influence from the occlusal condition, the condyles are stabilized by muscle tonus of the elevators and the inferior lateral pterygoids. The most superoanterior position of the condyle (solid line) is musculoskeletally the most stable position of the joint (MSS). Earlier definitions described centric relation (CR) as the most retruded position of the condyles.

Five cephalometric indicators of vertical growth (FH-FOP angle, SN-MP angle, FMA, gonial angle, and Y-axis) were also measured [Figure 2]. © Copyright 2020 – APOS Trends in Orthodontics – All rights reserved. The study included six Japanese men (24.8 [1.3] years) and 24 Japanese women (20.7 [2.7] years) selected from student volunteers with normal occlusion in the period between 2011 and 2013. Occlusion is the term used to describe the ‘bite’, i.e. Muscles stabilize joints. In a previous study,[5] the crowns of the maxillary lateral teeth had erupted mesially in relation to the functional occlusal plane (FOP) in patients with Angleâs Class I malocclusion and high canines and had been uprighted by nonextraction orthodontic treatment. Increased muscle activity is likely. For the remainder of this text, CR is taken to mean the most superoanterior position of the condyles in the articular fossae with the discs properly interposed. [1] However, several other factors such as early loss of deciduous molars,[2] mesiodistal tooth and arch dimensions,[3] and oral and perioral musculature[2] are assumed to affect the development and severity of crowding. Functional Occlusion – A static and dynamic relationship of the teeth combining minimum stress on TMJ, optimal function of the orofacial complex, stability and esthetics of the dentition and protection and health of periodontium. The reason may be that the first molar is the principal tooth supporting the bite force. Presumably, some factor caused mesial tipping of the lateral teeth germs in the alveolar bone. The study of gnathology has come to be known as the exact science of mandibular movement and resultant occlusal contacts. Optimal joint relationship is achieved only when the articular discs are properly interposed between the condyles and the articular fossae. However, the articular eminence is composed of dense bone that can withstand the forces of loading. The axial angulation of canine was significantly smaller than premolars and molar in the mandible. The most orthopedically stable joint position, therefore, exists when the condyles are in their most superoanterior position in the articular fossae, resting against the posterior slopes of the articular with the discs properly interposed. As discussed, the masticatory system is an extremely complex and interrelated system of muscles, bones, ligaments, teeth, and nerves. Progressive mesial tipping of the maxillary lateral teeth was noted. Such a border relationship would not be considered optimal for any other joint. Lateral STEMI is a stand-alone indication for emergent reperfusion. Therefore, during rest and function the superoanterior position is both anatomically and physiologically sound (see Figure 5-2). A healthy joint appears to permit very little posterior condylar movement from the MS position.22 Unfortunately the health of the joint may be difficult to assess clinically. (Courtesy of Dr. Terry Tanaka, San Diego, CA.). However as soon as the elevator muscles are contracted, the force applied to the condyles by these muscles is in a superior and slightly anterior direction. Therefore some degree of condylar movement posterior to the intercuspal position is normal during function. Crowding is classified on the basis of etiology: one category is the inherent discrepancy between tooth size and jaw size, mainly of genetic origin. If this ligament is tight, there may be very little difference between the most superior retruded position, the most superior position (Dawson’s position), and the superoanterior (MS) position. The anterior control (tooth #15 against tooth #18) is directing the mandibular closure in a lateral direction to the right until the occlusion locks. It most often occurs in middle-aged and older people. 2. the trapping of a liquid or gas within cavities in a solid or on its surface. Retinal vascular occlusion is a potentially serious condition, especially if hardening of the arteries, or atherosclerosis, already exists. In most joints this movement is very small (1 mm or less). Earlier definitions described centric relation (CR) as the most retruded position of the condyles.9–11 Since this position is determined mainly by the ligaments of the TMJ, it was described as a ligamentous position. An easy-to-understand approach advances your skills with the latest evidence-based clinical research, and reinforces knowledge with chapter … In 1899 Edward Angle offered the first description of the occlusal relationships of the teeth.2 Occlusion became a topic of interest and much discussion in the early years of modern dentistry as the restorability and replacement of teeth became more feasible. After examination of numerous patients with a variety of occlusal conditions and no apparent occlusion-related pathology, the merit of this concept became evident. Once again viewing Figure 5-3, the posterior aspect of the mandibular fossa is seen as quite thin and apparently not meant to bear stress. This author does not believe that it is reasonable to separate the dynamics of force application to human tissue and the disease and dysfunction experienced by that same tissue. As discussed in Chapter 1, ligaments do not actively participate in joint function. It can thus be seen that CR and the musculoskeletally stable (MS) position are the same. Group Function Occlusion: During lateral movement, the buccal cusps of the posterior teeth on the working side are in contact. This feature further emphasizes the fact that the superoposterior condylar position does not appear to be the optimal functional position of the joint. Another concept of mandibular stability18 suggests that a different position is optimal for the condyles. Results: At the 0.5 mm lateral excursion, 24.5% had bilateral group function and 12.7% had bilateral canine guidance. The lateral and medial discal ligaments attach the disc tightly to the condylar head. Therefore, no change in the occlusion is indicated. (The same idea applies to the left of course.) occlusion [ŏ-kloo´zhun] 1. obstruction. 3,4 The smile presentation can appear improper due to inconsistent tooth morphology. However, if the TM ligament is loose or elongated, an anteroposterior range of movement can occur while the condyle remains in its most superior position (Figure 5-4). All the values showed statistical significance among maxillary teeth. As previously described, the articular disc is composed of dense fibrous connective tissue devoid of nerves and blood vessels.19 This allows it to withstand heavy forces without damage or the inducement of painful stimuli. In this concept the condyles are described as being in their optimal position when they are translated to some degree down the posterior slopes of the articular eminences (Figure 5-6). If this happens, you are said to have a canine-protected occlusion. If you slide you teeth to your right, and only your right canines contact during this lateral excursion, then you have canine guidance. For example, with different degrees of excursion, the lateral occlusion scheme might differ. It may be explained in part by a fact that the angle of mesial angulation of erupting maxillary premolar relative to reference plane[8] on panoramic X-ray films showed the same results in the growing patients with mixed dentitions used as the subjects in the previous report. It is logical to assume that this position would require more muscular activity to maintain mandibular stability. Further, any functional occlusion is subjected to changes with time, yet without manifestation of physiological abnormalities2. The gnathologic concept was popular not only for use in restoring teeth but also as a treatment goal in attempting to eliminate occlusal problems. To examine the correlations among the axial angulations, Pearsonâs correlation was employed. By definition, malocclusion is an abnormality in the position of the teeth. This study has some limitations due to the sample size being relatively small, and while this method is established to compare data easily, cephalometric analysis provides only two-dimensional data, therefore, is not as reliable as a three-dimensional (3D) diagnostic tool. An accumulation of these features will represent the optimal functional occlusion. the relationship of teeth in the same jaw as well as the relationship of teeth in opposing jaws. This description is not complete, however, until the position of the articular discs is considered. The aim of this study was to investigate the mesiodistal angulations of the maxillary and mandibular lateral teeth relative to the FOP in normal occlusions by means of cephalometric analysis and identify the teeth axial factors contributing to the normal dentitions with the least arch length discrepancy (ALD). Anatomy and Function of the Lateral Pterygoid. In an attempt to determine which conditions seem least likely to cause any pathologic effects, this chapter examines certain anatomic and physiologic features of the masticatory system. [6] Each subject gave written informed consent for participating in the study. Alignment and Occlusion of the Dentition, 7. A single examiner (HU) performed all the relevant measurements. When the mandible is elevated, force is applied to the cranium in three areas: (1 and 2) the TMJs and (3) the teeth. Its incidence is high compared with the various malocclusions. This study, using lateral cephalograms of 82 normal occlusion cases with balanced profile, evaluated key parameters of functional occlusion. If changes occur in the structures of the joint, however, such as elongation of the TM ligament or joint pathology, the anteroposterior range of movement can be increased. The maxillary lateral teeth are more mesially angulated compared to the mandibular ones relative to the FOP. Significant differences in the axial angulations were noted between the maxillary and mandibular dentitions as previously shown by model analysis.[5]. This is an orthopedic principle that is true for all joints. 4. momentary complete closure of some area in the vocal tract, causing breathing to stop and pressure to accumulate. Thirty Japanese young adult patients (6 males, 24 females) with normal occlusion were selected to participate in this study; cephalograms were procured from each and the FOP was used as a reference plane for measuring the changes in the axial angulation along with other indicators of vertical growth. The MS position is now described in the Glossary of Prosthodontic Terms as CR.21 Although earlier definitions9–11 of CR emphasized the most retruded position of the condyles, most clinicians have come to appreciate that seating the condyle in the superoanterior position is far more orthopedically acceptable. It became useful to the prosthodontist because it was a reproducible mandibular position that could facilitate the construction of complete dentures.11 At that time it was considered the most reliable, repeatable reference point obtainable in an edentulous patient for accurately recording the relationship between mandible and maxilla and ultimately for controlling the occlusal contact pattern. The controversy arises as to whether there is an anteroposterior range in the most superior position of the condyle. The articular disc cannot not be displaced from the condylar head if the discal ligaments are intact and functional. The position of the discs in the resting joints is influenced by the interarticular pressures, the morphology of the discs themselves, and the tonus in the superior lateral pterygoid muscles. There is no contact on the non working side. the first diagonal branch (D1) of the LAD, the obtuse marginal branch (OM) of the LCx, or the ramus intermedius. In the following discussion, the joints and the teeth are examined separately. [11] In general, the maxillary lateral teeth are angulated more mesially than the mandibular ones. Balance is developed by the dental technician on the articulator. In addition, the axes of the maxillary teeth tend to converge in the maxilla, whereas the opposite is true in the mandible. More recent understanding of the biomechanics and function of the TMJ, however, have questioned the retruded position of the condyle as the most orthopedically stable position in the fossa. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the mesiodistal angulations of both maxillary and mandibular teeth relative to the FOP in normal occlusion by means of cephalograms and identifying the teeth axial factors contributing to the normal dentitions with the least ALD. Dawson16 suggested that there is not, which implies that if the condyles move either anteriorly or posteriorly from the most superior position, they will also move inferiorly. The direction of the force placed on the condyles by the masseters and medial pterygoids is superoanterior (Figure 5-2). Most clinicians agree that permanent canines are essential for functional occlusion. These teeth are best suited to accept horizontal forces in eccentric movements due to their long roots and good crown/root ratio It is easy for the dental technicians during wax up and construction of restoration to provide this Balanced occlusion and group function can be considered the usual state of the dentition that predominates when tooth wear is advanced, whereas canine‐protected occlusion can be thought of as a transient phase in an overall pattern of lifelong change. C. ... During a right lateral movement of the mandible, the left side of the mandible is termed the ___-_____ _____. One factor may be the prominent mesial axial angulation of the maxillary lateral teeth relative to the FOP. lateral functional contact (Lingual range) Centric relation It is the position of mandibular condyle in ... functional part of a patient’s occlusion may be free of occlusal interferences while other teeth not participating in occlusal function may have drifted into malposition because . Nevertheless, for years in dentistry, the use of this border ligamentous position as an optimal functional position for the condyles was discussed. What is the optimal functional occlusion? To simplify a discussion of this system is difficult yet necessary if the basic concepts that influence the function and health of all the components are to be understood. The more posterior the force placed on the mandible, the more elongation of the ligament will occur and the more posterior the condylar position will be. The degree of anteroposterior freedom varies according to the health of the joint structures. Some clinicians17,18 suggest that none of these definitions of CR indicates the most physiologic position and that the condyles should be ideally positioned downward and forward on the articular eminences. As the condyles are positioned downward and forward, the disc complexes follow; thus forces to the bone are dissipated effectively. The mandible, a bone attached to the skull by ligaments, is suspended in a muscular sling. B. maxillary central and lateral incisors. 2. The FOP was used as a reference plane to estimate the axial angulations in the present study. This concept centers around the health and function of the masticatory system and not on any specific occlusal configuration.8 If the structures of the masticatory system are functioning efficiently and without pathology, the occlusal configuration is considered to be physiologic and acceptable regardless of specific tooth contacts. , 2 and 3 mm from the maximum intercuspation can be accomplished either a.
