| mesial occlusion | Occlusion in which the mandibular teeth articulate with the maxillary teeth in a position anterior to normal. Synonym: anterior occlusion, mesio-occlusion. Synonym: mesioclusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| mesio-occlusion | Occlusion in which the mandibular teeth articulate with the maxillary teeth in a position anterior to normal. Synonym: anterior occlusion, mesio-occlusion. Synonym: mesioclusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| physiologically balanced occlusion | A balanced occlusion that is in harmony with the temporomandibular joints and the neuromuscular system. (05 Mar 2000) |
| physiologic occlusion | Occlusion in harmony with functions of the masticatory system. (05 Mar 2000) |
| components of occlusion | The various factors involved in occlusion, such as the temporomandibular joint, the associated neuromusculature, the teeth, and the denture-supporting structures. (05 Mar 2000) |
| working occlusion | working contacts |
| coronary occlusion | Blockage of a coronary vessel, usually by thrombosis or atheroma, often leading to myocardial infarction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior occlusion | The most effective contact of the molar and bicuspid teeth of both jaws which allows for all the natural movements of the jaws essential to normal mastication and closure. Synonym: posteroclusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| postnormal occlusion | A tooth occluding in a position distal to normal. Synonym: disto-occlusion, postnormal occlusion, retrusive occlusion. Synonym: distoclusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| curve of occlusion | A curved surface which makes simultaneous contact with the major portion of the incisal and occlusal prominences of the existing teeth, the curve of a dentition on which the occlusal surfaces lie. Synonym: occlusal curvature. (05 Mar 2000) |
| proper occlusion | <dentistry> A beautiful smile where all of your teeth are straight and your top teeth line up with your bottom teeth. (08 Jan 1998) |
| protrusive occlusion | Occlusion which results when the mandible is protruded forward from centric position. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hyperfunctional occlusion | Occlusal stress of tooth or teeth exceeding normal physiologic demands. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spherical form of occlusion | An arrangement of teeth which places their occlusal surfaces on the surface of an imaginary sphere (usually 8 inches in diameter) with its centre above the level of the teeth. See: Monson curve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neutral occlusion | An arrangement of teeth such that the maxillary and mandibular first permanent molars are in normal anteroposterior relation. Synonym: normal occlusion. Synonym: neutroclusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
