12. Overbite
Vertical overlap of the
lower incisors by upper
incisors
Normal overbite is 1 to
3mm
Openbite
Deepbite
13. Crossbite
Transverse discrepancy
of the position of upper
and lower teeth
May be unilateral or
bilateral
Anterior crossbite
Posterior crossbite
Single tooth crossbite
14. Midlines
Upper dental midline to
midpalatal raphae
Lower midline to lingual
frenum
Upper midline to lower
midline
16. Space Analysis
Space available
Space required
Space available – space required = crowding/spacing
17. Space Available
Also called arch
perimeter
Extends between mesial
of first permanent
molars of either side of
arch
Measured by two
methods
1. Brass wire
2. Varnier caliper/divider
18. Space Available
Use of brass wire
Adapt along arch from mesial of first molar on one
side to other
24. Space Required
Three methods to find out mesiodistal width of
unerupted canine and premolars
1. Tanaka and Johnston
2. Moyer’s predictability table
3. Radiographic
25. Tanaka and Johnston
Measure mesiodistal width of mandibular incisors
Sum the mesiodistal widths of mandibular incisors
and divide by 2
For mandibular canine and premolars MD width add
10.5
For maxillary canine and premolars MD width add 11
30. Radiographic Method
Dental cast and patient radiograph is required
Radiograph may be periapical or OPG
Mesiodistal width of teeth is measured on cast and
radiograph
Calculate with formula x = x’y/y’
X is unerupted tooth
Y is erupted tooth on cast
X’ is unerupted tooth on radiograph
Y’ is erupted tooth on radiograph
32. Total space required
I + 2X + ceph correction + curve of Occlusion
I is the MD width of permanent incisors
2X is the combined MD width of canines and
premolars
Ceph correction is Proposed FMIA – Actual FMIA ×
0.8
Curve of occlusion is depth of curve of spee
bilaterally/2 + 0.5
34. Bolton Analysis
Tooth size discrepancy of maxillary and mandibular
arch
More than 2mm discrepancy need revision and
diagnostic setup
7th key of occlusion
Discrepancy will not allow perfect class I occlusion
35. Bolton Analysis
Measure mesiodistal width of all teeth in maxilla and
mandible from first molar to first molar
Add the widths of teeth in mandible and maxilla
separately
36. Bolton Analysis
Overall Ratio (X)
X = Sum of mandibular 12/sum of maxillary 12 ×100
Normal value is 91.3
If X is more than 91.3
Desired sum of mand 12 = actual sum of max 12×91.3
100
Overall mandibular tooth excess =
Actual sum of man 12 - desired sum of man 12 = ------mm
37. Bolton Analysis
If X is less than 91.3
Desired sum of max 12 = actual sum of mand 12 × 100
91.3
Overall maxillary tooth material excess =
Actual sum of max 12 – desired sum of max 12 = ------mm
38. Bolton Analysis
Anterior Ratio (Y)
Y = Sum of mandibular 6/sum of maxillary 6 ×100
Normal value is 77.2
If Y is more than 77.2
Desired sum of mand 6 = actual sum of max 6×77.2
100
Anterior mandibular tooth excess =
Actual sum of man 6 - desired sum of man 6 = ------mm
39. Bolton Analysis
If Y is less than 77.2
Desired sum of max 6 = actual sum of mand 6 × 100
77.2
Anterior maxillary tooth material excess =
Actual sum of max 6 – desired sum of max 6 = -------mm
48. CBCT
More complex relations
of the structures can be
seen
Cleft lip palate
Multiple
supernumeraries
Impactions difficult to
locate with other
radiographs
70. Anterior cranial base
Sella entrance to nasion
Assess the proportional
lengths of maxilla and
mandible

68.6mm for males and
65.9mm for females
Incremental increase of
.7mm/year for males and
.5mm/year for females
up to age 18
71. Maxillary Length
From PNS to Point A
perpendicular on Palatal
plane
Mean value is 45mm at
age 8
Annual increase of
1.2mm for males and

72. Mandibular Length
Measured from gonion to
perpendicular from
pogonion on mandibular
plane
