The Overbite Complexity: How The Vertical Position, Tooth-Size Ratios And Other Factors Affect Occlusion and
International Journal of Orthodontics (Milwaukee, Wis.)
|September 10, 2015
Summary
This article details diagnosing and correcting overbites in orthodontics. Learn how to achieve stable, long-lasting occlusions and proper bite positions for successful treatment outcomes.
Area of Science:
- Dentistry
- Orthodontics
- Occlusion
Background:
- Overbites are a common dental concern.
- Understanding pre-treatment occlusions is crucial for orthodontic success.
- Deepening overbites can complicate treatment and affect long-term stability.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explain the complexities of overbite correction.
- To provide methods for diagnosing pre-treatment occlusions.
- To guide the correction of overbites to achieve stable, long-lasting results.
Main Methods:
- Analysis of overbite complexities.
- Diagnostic criteria for pre-treatment occlusions.
- Techniques for correcting deepened overbites.
Main Results:
- Accurate diagnosis leads to stable orthodontic outcomes.
- Understanding overbite changes is key to correction.
- Proper overbite positioning ensures long-term occlusal health.
Conclusions:
- Effective diagnosis and correction of overbites are essential for successful orthodontic treatment.
- Achieving proper overbite positions results in stable and lasting occlusions.
- This approach enhances overall treatment predictability and patient satisfaction.

01:21Tooth Anatomy

The human tooth enables us to eat a variety of foods, speak clearly, and even aid in shaping our faces. Teeth are composed of various elements that work together. Here's a detailed look at the anatomy of a human tooth.
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or...

The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin...

A thorough mouth assessment, including inspection and palpation of the lips, gums, tongue, tonsils, uvula, and pharynx, is crucial in detecting potential health issues. Diseases ranging from oral cancer to systemic conditions like diabetes could be identified early through careful oral examination. This article provides a detailed guide on conducting a comprehensive mouth assessment.
Mouth Inspection
The inspection begins with visually examining the mouth for symmetry, color, and size.

01:27Cranial Bones: Lateral View
7.9K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

The oral cavity, or the mouth, is a complex structure in humans that plays a vital role in our day-to-day lives. Its role is not only in chewing and swallowing food; it also plays a role in speech and facial expressions.
Teeth: The teeth are the hardest structures in our bodies. Humans have two sets of teeth throughout their lifetime: deciduous (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. Each tooth consists of several parts: the crown (visible part), the root (embedded in the jaw), enamel (hard outer...

01:14Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
8.7K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...
