Ackerman & proffit classification of malocclusionAli Waqar Hasan
This document describes the Ackerman-Proffit analysis system for orthodontic malocclusions. It evaluates malocclusions based on Angle's classification plus five additional characteristics: transverse and vertical discrepancies, crowding, asymmetry, and incisor protrusion. It also assesses the dental arch, profile, lip posture, incisor display, and presence of crossbites or open bites. Rotational deviations around transverse, antero-posterior, and vertical axes (pitch, roll, yaw) are also evaluated. Scoring is done on a scale of 0 to 5 based on severity of the malocclusion characteristics.
Steiner developed a cephalometric analysis method in 1953 using landmarks on the anterior cranial base. His analysis consisted of three parts: skeletal analysis measuring angles of the maxilla and mandible, dental analysis of upper and lower incisor positions, and soft tissue analysis using the "S line". The Steiner method provided a way to compensate for skeletal discrepancies by altering incisor positions to achieve normal occlusion. It was most effective for smaller malocclusions and not larger skeletal discrepancies.
Centric relation is the most posterior position of the mandible in relation to the maxilla, from which lateral movements can be made. It is a reproducible position that serves as a reliable guide for developing occlusion in complete dentures. There are various methods for recording centric relation, including functional methods like the needle house method and excursive methods using intraoral or extraoral tracings. Establishing accurate centric relation is important for proper functioning, aesthetics, and comfort of complete dentures.
The document discusses the benefits of meditation for reducing stress and anxiety. Regular meditation practice can help calm the mind and body by lowering heart rate and blood pressure. Studies have shown that meditating for just 10-20 minutes per day can have significant positive impacts on both mental and physical health over time.
The human mandible can be related to the maxilla in several positions in the horizontal plane. Among these centric relation is a significant position, because of its usefulness in relating the dentulous and edentulous mandible to maxilla, where the teeth , muscles and temporomandibular joint function in harmony. It is a position of occluso-articular harmony.
This document provides an overview of Gothic arch tracing techniques used to record centric relation. It defines key terms and discusses the history and evolution of graphic recording methods from early needle point tracings to modern extraoral and intraoral tracers that produce Gothic arch tracings. The conventional extraoral technique is described in 12 steps, from mounting the tracers to making centric and protrusive plaster records. Intraoral tracings are noted to be smaller and harder to observe during tracing compared to extraoral methods.

Vertical jaw relation in Complete Dentures- KellyKelly Norton
1) The vertical jaw relation refers to the distance between selected points on the face, usually the tip of the nose and chin, and aims to determine the optimal vertical dimension of occlusion for complete dentures.
2) There are several proposed theories for the physiologic rest position, including positions where the opening and closing muscles are in equilibrium or where elastic elements balance gravity, but no single method is universally valid.
3) Determining the vertical dimension at rest provides a reference point, being approximately 2-4mm less than the vertical dimension of occlusion, which is the distance between contact points with the teeth occluding.
This document provides an overview of orthodontic wires, including their history, properties, classifications, uses, advantages, and disadvantages.

The document discusses the classification and design principles of obturators for partially edentulous patients. It presents a 6-class classification system for maxillary defects based on the location and extent of the resection. The classes range from a midline defect (Class I) to a bilateral posterior defect (Class V). Design principles are provided for each class, focusing on support, retention, and stabilization. Support is primarily through rests on abutment teeth and palatal tissues. Retention uses direct and indirect retainers on abutment teeth. Stabilization incorporates guide planes and tripodal/quadrilateral designs when possible. The goal is to distribute forces optimally and minimize movement of the prosthesis.
The document describes the altered cast technique, which is a modification of the functional impression technique used in removable partial dentures. It involves making a functional impression to capture the displaced shape of the residual ridge under load. The edentulous area is then cut out from the original master cast. The framework and functional impression are seated on the modified master cast. Stone is poured into the impression to create an altered, or corrected, cast reflecting the displaced ridge shape under load. This ensures uniform support of the denture base in the functional form of the residual ridge.

2) Scissor bites can be caused by factors like microglossia, abnormal tooth germ position, and skeletal Class II issues. Treatment depends on a patient's age and severity of the scissor bite, ranging from removable appliances to orthodontic devices to orthognathic surgery.
3) The document presents several case studies as examples. One case discusses using a bonded constriction quad-helix appliance to reduce the maxillary arch width in a growing patient with a bilateral scissor
The document discusses different methods of maxillary arch expansion in orthodontics, including slow expansion and rapid maxillary expansion. Slow expansion uses lighter forces over a longer period and can involve dental or skeletal changes. Rapid expansion applies greater force to separate the mid-palatal suture more quickly, but risks relapse. A variety of fixed and removable appliances are described for delivering expansion forces, including quad helix, W-arch, nickel-titanium wires, and expansion screws. The effects, indications, contraindications, and risks of both rapid and slow expansion techniques are compared.
The study compared the reproducibility of two techniques for recording centric relation: Dawson's Bilateral Manipulation and Gysi's Gothic Arch Tracing. Twenty subjects underwent each technique five times over a week. The average standard error was calculated, with Gothic Arch Tracing (0.27) showing less variability than Bilateral Manipulation (0.94). Statistical analysis found Gothic Arch Tracing to be more accurate in reproducing centric relation records.

1. Horizontal jaw relation refers to the relationship of the mandible to the maxilla in the anteroposterior plane. There are two types: centric relation and eccentric relation.
2. Centric relation is the maxillomandibular relationship where the condyles are positioned in the anterior-superior position against the articular eminences, independent of tooth contact. It is the starting point for developing occlusion.
3. There are several methods to record centric relation including physiological, functional, graphic, and radiographic methods. The physiological method uses proprioception while the functional method utilizes mandibular movements.
This document discusses horizontal jaw relation and methods for recording centric relation. There are two types of horizontal jaw relation: centric and eccentric. Centric relation is the maximum intercuspal position with equal condylar joint space bilaterally. Methods for recording centric relation include physiological (tactile check bite), functional (needle point tracing), graphic (arrow point tracing), and radiographic. The graphic method uses a central bearing device to trace mandibular movements and aims to produce an arrow-shaped tracing. Eccentric relations include protrusive and lateral jaw positions which are recorded to reproduce mandibular movements in the articulator.
An articulator is a mechanical instrument that simulates the temporomandibular joint and jaws. It allows maxillary and mandibular casts to be attached to simulate jaw movements. Articulators can be classified based on the occlusion theory they follow (Bonwill, conical, spherical), their ability to simulate movements (classes I-IV), and their degree of adjustability (non-adjustable, semi-adjustable, fully adjustable). A mean value articulator is non-adjustable and uses average anatomical values. It allows only vertical movement and does not accept a facebow record. Semi-adjustable articulators allow some customization while fully adjustable articulators can reproduce each patient's unique jaw movements.
Following the orientation of maxilla and determination of vertical
dimension, the final relation to be recorded is the horizontal relation.
This is the anteroposterior relation of the mandible to the maxilla in
the horizontal plane.
The horizontal relations can be classified as:
• Centric relation
• Eccentric relations – protrusive and lateral.
The maxillomandibular relationship in which the condyles articulate with the thinnest avascular portion of their respective discs with the complex in the anterior–superior position against the slopes of the articular eminencies. This position is independent of tooth contact. This position is clinically discernible when the mandible is directed superiorly and anteriorly. It is restricted to a purely rotary movement about the transverse horizontal axis
This document discusses the use of a facebow to transfer jaw orientation from a patient to an articulator. It begins by explaining the importance of recording jaw orientation and its relationship to the skull. It then defines orientation jaw relation and describes how a facebow is used to locate three reference points (condylar centers and infraorbital notch) to establish the maxilla's angle. The document discusses arbitrary and kinematic facebows and their parts. It provides steps for making a facebow recording and transferring it to mount the dental cast on an articulator.
The document discusses the importance of accurately transferring jaw relationships to an articulator. It describes the significance of the facebow in recording the maxillomandibular relationship, including the orientation of the jaws to the cranium. The document outlines the history of the facebow, types of facebows, and how to perform a facebow recording. The facebow is essential for transferring jaw relationships to simulate jaw movements when fabricating dental prostheses.
This document provides an overview of hinge axis and facebows. It discusses the need to determine the plane of orientation between the maxilla and mandible. It defines hinge axis and terminal hinge axis. It describes different methods to locate the hinge axis including arbitrary, kinematic, and modified methods. It discusses the history, parts, types, and uses of facebows. It also reviews literature on different schools of thought around hinge axis and controversies in its location.
An articulator is a mechanical device that holds maxillary and mandibular dental casts in order to simulate jaw movements. It allows dentists to evaluate occlusion and plan dental treatments. The document defines articulators and describes their purposes, uses, requirements, types, components and limitations. Articulators are classified based on the occlusion theory they follow, the type of records used, their ability to simulate movements, and their degree of adjustability. They help dentists visualize occlusion, plan treatments, and fabricate restorations without requiring patient cooperation.
An articulator is a mechanical device that represents the temporomandibular joints and jaw membranes to which maxilla and mandibular casts can be attached. It is used to simulate jaw movements when fabricating and testing dentures. The main components of an articulator include the upper and lower membranes, incisal guide table, condylar guidance, and incisal pin. Articulators allow visualization of occlusion and refinement of denture occlusion outside the mouth. However, they may not perfectly simulate jaw movements and cannot correct errors from the jaw relation procedure.
This document provides an overview of horizontal jaw relation and methods for recording centric relation. It defines centric relation as the maxillomandibular relationship where the condyles are positioned in the anterior-superior position against the articular eminences without tooth contact. Several methods for recording centric relation are described, including the pressureless method, pressure method, needle-house method, Patterson method, and graphic methods using arrow point tracing or pantographic tracing. Recording centric relation accurately is important for the functional efficiency and longevity of complete dentures.
The horizontal jaw relation describes the anteroposterior position of the mandible relative to the maxilla. There are three types: centric relation, and two eccentric relations (protrusive and lateral). Centric relation is the maxillomandibular relationship with the condyles in the anterosuperior position against the articular eminence, independent of tooth contact. It is a repeatable reference position that allows for unstrained vertical and lateral movements. Methods to record centric relation include static, functional and graphic techniques.
This document discusses jaw relation and provides details about orientation jaw relation, vertical jaw relation, and facebow use. It defines the different types of jaw relations and explains how to record orientation and vertical jaw relations. Orientation jaw relation establishes the maxillary plane and is recorded first using a facebow to transfer the maxillomandibular relationship to an articulator. Vertical jaw relation can be recorded at rest or occlusion and determines jaw separation. Physiologic and mechanical methods are described to establish the vertical dimension.
The document defines an articulator as a mechanical device that represents the temporomandibular joints and jaw members to attach dental casts and simulate jaw movements. Articulators are used to hold dental casts in a fixed relationship, simulate jaw movements like opening and closing, and reproduce border and intra-border tooth movements. They allow dentists to visualize occlusion, plan treatments, fabricate restorations, and arrange artificial teeth by simulating jaw movements without needing patient cooperation. Common components of articulators include upper and lower members to hold the casts, an incisal guide table, condylar guidance, and incisal pin to maintain relationships during jaw simulation. Articulators can be classified based on the occlusion theory they follow, the

This document provides information about the hinge axis in dentistry. It defines the hinge axis as an imaginary line around which the condyles can rotate without translation. It describes various mandibular movements including hinge, frontal axis, and sagittal axis movements. The document discusses the importance of locating the hinge axis to transfer the vertical dimension and centric relation to an articulator. It compares different methods for locating the hinge axis including the geometric method, anatomical landmarks, and trial and error methods. The limitations of using an average or arbitrary hinge axis on a semi-adjustable articulator are also noted.
This document discusses horizontal jaw relations, which refers to the anteroposterior relation of the mandible to the maxilla in the horizontal plane. It describes centric relation as the maxillomandibular relationship where the condyles articulate with the thinnest avascular portion of the discs in the anterior-superior position against the slopes of the articular eminencies, independently of tooth contact. Several methods are presented for recording centric relation, including static, functional, and graphic methods, with graphic methods seen as the most accurate. Eccentric relations involving protrusive and lateral mandibular positions are also important to record for balanced occlusion.
This document discusses the use of a face bow in dentistry. It begins by classifying jaw relations and defining important concepts like transverse axis and retruded contact position. It then describes the components and use of different types of face bows, including kinematic and arbitrary face bows. Key reference points are also outlined, such as orbitale and camper's plane. The document concludes by discussing the importance of using a face bow to accurately transfer the spatial relationship of jaws to an articulator.
The document discusses orientation jaw relation and facebow transfer procedures. It defines orientation jaw relation as establishing the reference in the cranium and the relationship between the maxilla and mandible. It then describes recording orientation using a facebow to relate the maxillary cast to the articulator in the same way the maxilla relates to the temporomandibular joints. The document also summarizes the types of facebows, including arbitrary and kinematic, and procedures for using each in complete dentures and fixed prosthodontics.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
3. INTRODUCTION
Jaw relation is defined as,”Any relation of the mandible
to the maxilla.”
Jaw relation is recorded to measure the extensibility
and the movements permissible by the patient’s
temporomandibular joint.
There are three different types of jaw relations are;-
Orientation jaw relation
Vertical jaw relation
Horizontal jaw relation.
4. SOME IMPORTANT TERMS…..
Centric jaw relation-the most posterior relation of the
mandible to the maxilla at the established vertical
dimension.
Eccentric jaw relation-any jaw relation other than
centric jaw relation.
Orientation relation-The jaw relation when the
mandible is kept in its most posterior position,it can
rotate in the saggital plane around an imaginary
transverse axis passing through or near the condyles.”
6. Vertical jaw relation- The length of the face as
determined by the amount of separation of the jaws.
Horizontal jaw relation- It is the relationship of the
mandible to the maxilla in the horizontal plane or in
antero-posterior direction.
7. HORIZONTAL JAW RELATION
It is the relationship of the mandible to the maxilla in a
horizontal plane.
Horizontal jaw relation can be two types namely
CENTRIC RELATION
ECCENTRIC JAW RELATION.
8. CENTRIC RELATION
It may be defined as the maxillomandibular
relationship in which the condyles articulate with the
thinnest avascular portion of their respective disc with
the complex in the anterior- superior position against
the slopes of the articular eminence. The position is
independent of tooth contact. The position is clinically
discernible when the mandible is directed superior
and anteriorly. It is restricted to a purely rotary
movement about the transverse horizontal axis.-GPT-5
9. Some salient features of centric relation.
It is a definite learned position from which the
mandible can move to any eccentric position and
return back involuntarily.
If the mandible has to move from one eccentric
position to another it should go to the centric relation
before advancing to the target eccentric position.
Functional movements like chewing and swallowing
are performed in this position,because it is the most
unstrained position.
10. The cast should me mounted in centric relation because it is
the point from which all the movements can be made or
simulated in the articulator.
It is helpful in adjusting condylar guidance in an articulator
to produce balanced occlusion.
11. Methods of recording the centric jaw relation.
PHYSIOLOGICAL METHODS:-
1)Tactile method
2)Pressure method.
FUNCTIONAL METHOD:-
1)Needle house method
2)Patterson method.
13. PHYSIOLOGICAL METHOD
TACTILE SENSE
Also known as Interocclusal check record method.
In this method, tentative centric jaw relation is
recorded by asking the patient to retrude the
mandible. The cast are articulated based on the
tentative jaw relation. Teeth arrangement is done and
an interocclusal registration is made. The tentative jaw
relation is verified with the interocclusal records and
errors are corrected.
15. PRESSURE METHOD.
After establishing the vertical dimension,the upper
occlusal rim is inserted into the patients mouth.The
lower occlusal rim is fabricated to be of excess height.
The entire lower occlusal rim is softened in a water
bath and inserted carefully into the patient’s mouth.
The patient is asked to close the mouth in centric
relation.The patient is asked to close on the soft
wax.After the patients closes his mouth till the
predetermined vertical dimension,both the occlusal
rims are removed,cooled and articulated.
16. FUNCTIONAL METHOD.
NEEDLEHOUSE METHOD.
It involves the fabrication of occlusal rims made from
impression compound.
Four metal beads or styli are embedded into the
premolar and molars area of the maxillary occlusal
rim.
The occlusal rims are inserted into the patients mouth.
The patient is asked to close on the occlusal rims and
make protusive, retrusive, right and left lateral
movements of the mandible.
20. Marking on the mandibular occlusal rim.when all
the movements are made,a diamond shaped
marking pattern rather than a line is formed on the
mandibular occlusal rim.
The posterior most point of this diamond pattern
indicates the centric jaw relation.
21. PATTERSON’S METHOD.
In this occlusal rim are made up of modelling wax.
A trench or trough is made along the length of the mandibular
occlusal rim.
A I:1 mixture of carborundum and dental plaster is loaded into the
trench.
The occlusal rims are inserted and the patient is asked to perform
mandibular movements.
These movements will produce compensating curves.
The patient is asked to continue these movements till a
predetermined vertical dimension is obtained.
Finally the patient is asked to retrude his jaw and occlusal rims are
fixed in this position with metal staples.
23. GRAPHIC METHODS.
These methods are so called because they use graphs
or tracing to record the centric jaw relation.
These are of two types:-
1)Arrow point tracing.
2)Pantograph.
Arrow point tracing is a graphic record measured
across a single plane,whereas the pantograph is
measured three–dimensionally.
24. ARROW POINT TRACING
It is a one-dimensional graphic tracing made using
gothic arch tracers.
It is usually recorded in the horizontal plane.
Arrow point tracers are used.
A pen like pointer is attached to one occlusal rim and
a recording plate is placed on the other rim
When the mandible moves the pointer draws
characterstic patterns on the recording plate. The
pointer is known as the CENTRAL BEARING POINT.
And the recording plate is known as CENTRAL
BEARING PLATE.
25. They are so called as they act at the centre of the arch and
evenly distribute forces across the supporting structures.
The pointer and the plate together are called as the
CENTRAL BEARING DEVICE.
The characteristic pattern created on the recording plate is
called a CENTRAL ARROW POINT TRACING.
It is defined as: The pattern obtained on the horizontal
plate used with a central bearing tracing device.”GPT
26. ARROW point tracing is called so because the shape of
the tracing pattern resembles an arrow head.The apex
of the arrow point tracing gives the centric relation.
The apex of the arrow head should be sharp else the
tracing is incorrect.
TYPES OF ARROW HEAD TRACERS:-
1)Intra oral arrow head tracers.
2)Extraoral arrow head tracers.
27. INTRA ORAL ARROW POINT TRACERS
Central bearing device is located intra orally.
Tracers are placed within the mouth.
DISADVANTAGE-Tracers is not visible during the
procedure.
PROCEDURE:-
The record bases attached to the central bearing point
and the central bearing plate are inserted into the
patients mouth.
The central bearing point is adjusted such that it
contacts the central bearing plate at a predetermined
vertical dimension.
28. When the patient closes his mouth,the central bearing
point contacts the metal plate.
The patient is asked to make anteroposterior and
lateral movements. While making these
movements,the central bearing point will draw the
tracing pattern on the central bearing plate.
After completing the movements,the tracing is
removed and examined.The tracing should resemble
an arrow point with a sharp apex.if the apex is
blunt,the record is discarded and the procedure is
freshly repeated.
29. EXTRAORAL ARROW POINT TRACERS.
The concept is similar to an intra–oral tracer. These
tracers have the same central bearing device attached
to the occlusal rims.
Additionally, they have attachments that project
outside the mouth.An extraoral tracing pointer and
the recording plates are attached to projections.
Since the recording pointer and the plates are situated
extraorally,the tracing can be examined as it is made.
30. The size of the tracing pattern is also large. Hence, the
apex can be identified easily.
31. PANTOGRAPHIC TRACING.
It is defined as :
“A graphic record of the mandibular movement in
three planes as registered by the styli on the recording
tables of a pantograph; tracings of mandibular
movement recorded on plates in the horizontal and
saggital planes.” GPT.
It is three-dimensional graphic tracer.
Most accurate method.
Even eccentric jaw relation can be recorded using
these instruments.
32. Pantographic tracer
It is defined as,”An instrument used to graphically one
or more planes path of the mandibular movement and
to provide information for the programming of the
articulator.-GPT
It resembles a complicated face-bow.the surface over
which the tracing is done is called a FLAG.
A stylus (tracing pointer) is present for each flag.
The styli draw tracing patterns on the flag.
33.
34. A pantographic tracer has six flags:-
Two flags located perpendicular to one another
near the condyles.
Totally there are four flags adjacent to the right and
left condylar guidances. They locate the
actual(true) hinge axis.
Two flags are placed in the anterior region. They
record the anteroposterior movements.
