“
Centric Relation [CR]- a maxillomandibular relationship,
independent of tooth contact, in which the condyles
articulate in the anterior-superior position against the
posterior slopes of the articular eminences; in this position,
the mandible is restricted to a purely rotary movement;
from this unstrained, physiologic, maxillomandibular
relationship, the patient can make vertical, lateral or
protrusive movements; it is a clinically useful, repeatable
reference position

Centric Occlusion [CO]- the occlusion of opposing teeth
when the mandible is in centric relation; this may or may
not coincide with the maximal intercuspal position
Disclusion - the separation of opposing teeth during
eccentric movements of the mandible.

Posterior determinants ofocclusion
29
Stuart describes condylar factors as
determinants of occlusal morphology and
effect on acceptable cusp height and fossa
depth and allowable ridge and groove
direction of teeth, called as posterior
determinants of occlusion .
30.
Posterior determinants ofocclusion
30
These are –
Path of the rotating condyle
Side shift
Path of orbiting condyle
Intercondylar distance
Path of rotatingcondyle
32
▰ Laterotrusion- lateral movement of rotating condyle.
▰ Horizontal plane: these movements give antero-posterior
component which effects the ridge and groove directions of
occlusal surface.
▰ Lateroprotrusion- outward and forward movement. Distal
positioning of grooves and ridge is done in mandibular
teeth.
33.
Path of rotatingcondyle
33
▰ Frontal plane- it gives the vertical component affects the
depth of grooves, height of cusps and angle of ridges.
▰ Laterosurtrusion- outward and upward movement. It
demands shallower grooves and less cusp height.
▰ Laterodetrusion- outward and downward movement.
Demands deeper grooves and greater cusp height.
34.
Path of rotatingcondyle
34
▰ Path of rotating condyle affects the path of mandibular
canine on working side and influence the amount of
allowable lingual contour of opposing maxillary canine.
Shift of condyle
36
lateralshifting of mandible as lateral movement is made. This is
produced by combination of rotation and translation in both
horizontal and frontal planes.
Greater the immediate shift, shorter is allowable cusp height.
If Presence immediate shift also requires mesial positioning of
grooves and ridges of mandibular teeth and more distal
positioning of oblique ridges and grooves of maxillary teeth.
During right lateral movement, greater mediotrusion of left
condyle that is produced by side shift, greater must lingual
concavity of maxillary canine in order to allow smooth cyclic
chewing movement without conflict.
37.
Intercondylar distance
37
▰ Distancebetween the rotational
center of one condyle to the rotational
center of the other side of condyle is
called as intercondylar distance.
▰ Larger the distance, more distal
positioning of ridges and grooves on
mandibular teeth and mesial
positioning of ridges and grooves of
maxillary teeth.
▰ Smaller the distance vice-versa.
38.
Path of orbitingcondyle
38
This is the detrusion of orbiting(non working)
condyle in relation to horizontal cranial reference
plane.
Greater angle of the path, greater cusp height
and deeper the fossa.
Anterior determinants ofocclusion
40
▰ The factors within dentition which influences the
mandibular movement are called as anterior determinants of
occlusion.
▰ These are –
▰ Occlusal plane
▰ Compensating curves
▰ Vertical and horizontal overlap of anterior teeth
41.
Occlusal plane
41
▰ Positionof teeth in relation to
rotational centers of condyle and to
horizontal cranial reference plane is
transferred to articulator by means
of facebow.
▰ Interocclusal records made in
centric relation are used to place
mandibular cast in proper relation to
rotational centers and cranial
reference planes.
Compensating curves
43
▰ Curveof spee -
▰ Effect of curve of spee is determined by comparing plane
of each tooth in curve with path of orbiting condyle with
same rule as in occlusal plane.
▰ The more plane of occlusion diverges from path of non
working condyle, greater is allowable cuspal height.
▰ The more nearly parallel occlusal plane to path of non
working condyle the shorter is allowable cuspal height.
44.
Compensating curves
44
▰ Curveof Willson -
▰ ■ It is an imaginary lateral curve.
▰ ■ Its convexity faces upwards in 1st premolars.
▰ ■ It become straight in 2nd premolars
▰ ■ And faces downwards in molars.
▰ ■ In complete denture occlusion it is called lateral
compensating curve
Compensating curves
46
▰ Curveof Monson –
▰ Extending the curve of Spee and Willson to all cusps and
incisal edges reveals the curve of Monson. Combination of
curve of spee and willson, 3D curve.
Vertical and horizontaloverlap of
anterior teeth
49
▰ ■ Over – jet -The horizontal distance between the labial
surface of the lower central incisor and the palatal surface
of the upper central incisor in centric occlusion.
▰ ■ Over – bite -It is the vertical distance between the incisal
edges of the maxillary central incisor and mandibular
central incisor in centric occlusion.
50.
Vertical and horizontaloverlap of
anterior teeth
50
▰ Greater the vertical height, greater will be cusp height.
▰ Greater the horizontal overlap, lesser will be cusp height.
Movements of mandible
59
Protrusivemovements –
Posterior guidance(condyles)-
both left and right condyle heads rotate openly
initially, then translate forward and downward
along the articular eminence
-Depends on eminence steep
60.
Movements of mandible
60
Protrusivemovements –
Anterior guidance(Teeth)-
molars start to disarticulate with the lower incisal edge of anterior teeth
sliding along the lingual concavity of the upper incisors, molar disarticulation
reaches a maximum point at which the anterior teeth are edge-to-edge
Depend on :
-anterior teeth guidance and canines
-horizontal overjet
-vertical overbite
-cusp length of posterior teeth
Movements of mandible
62
Lateralexcursive movements –
Posterior guidance (condyles):
The condyle at the side which the mandible is moving towards is called
the working condyle , it rotates forward and translates slightly lateral
The slight lateral movement is immediate, non progressive and
described as ‘immediate side shift’, or ‘Bennet movement’.
Its described in 86% of lateral movement and is about 0.5 to 3 mm
63.
Movements of mandible
63
Thecondyles at the side which the condyle is moving away from is
called the non working condyle, it rotates and translates along the
eminence forward, downward and medially
The angle of the downward movement, known as the ‘condylar angle’
The angle of the medial movement is known as the ‘Bennet angle’.
Movements of mandible
65
Anteriorguidance(teeth)–
Canine guidance :
the sliding action contact between cusps of the opposing canines on
the working side disarticulate the teeth on the non-working side
If any other premature contact between any other teeth happens on
working and/or non-working side , is an interference
66.
Movements of mandible

Anteriorguidance(teeth)–
Or Group function :
The sliding contact between cusps of the opposing canines,
premolars, and molars on the working side; disarticulate all teeth on
the non-working side
If any other contact on the non-working side only happens is an
interference
Mutually protected occlusion
68
Anocclusal scheme in which the posterior teeth prevent excessive
contact of the anterior teeth in maximum intercuspation, and the
anterior teeth disengage the posterior teeth in all mandibular
excursive movements.
Advantages
70
1) 1) Minimumamount of tooth contact is involved and this makes
for better penetration of the food.
2) 2) The force is closer to the long axis of each tooth.
3) 3) The arrangement of the marginal, transverse and oblique ridges
so that they have a shearing action, which makes for a much more
chewing apparatus.
4) 4) better health of teeth not in function.
71.
Group function occlusion
71

in lateral movements on the working side whereby simultaneous
contact of several teeth acts as a group to distribute occlusal forces.
Advantages
73
1) Lateral pressureare distributed to all working side tooth.
2) Long centric, so allow some freedom of movement in an
anteroposterior direction.

cusps or ridges).
3) 7) Anterior clearance of teeth during mastication. Minimum
