1. Deciduous molars and canines are wider than permanent premolars and canines; space saved during mesial drift of permanent molars

2. Relationship of teeth in which the incisal ridges or buccal cusp ridges of the maxillary anterior teeth extend facially to the incisal ridges/cusps of the mandibular teeth when the teeth are in centric occlusion relationship

3. Posterior; no horizontal overlap

4. Does not result from brushing at all - but from traumatic lateral forces placed on the teeth as a result of a malocclusion or abnormal tongue activity. Root surface is exposed & can become carious

5. Tongue thrusting; thumb sucking - pacifiers

9. Vertical

10. Starts closer to premolars

11. Later

12. Maxillary overlap mandibular; whole arch

13. Malposition - crowded anterior teeth - protruded or retruded max incisors - anterior/posterior crossbite - mesial drift

14. The side to which the mandible moves(chewing side)

15. Excessive occ force with adequate bone support =

16. Normal contacts between max. and mand. teeth; momentary contacts

17. During protrusive occ - ______ is considered undesirable

18. Malocclusion cause excessive incisal or occlusal wear(attrition); teeth continue to erupt in order to occlude with teeth in the opposite arch & roots become exposed

19. Transverse occlusal curvature; posterior teeth; medio-lateral postion (r-l)

20. Selective grinding should always be completed after ______ has been controlled

21. The permanent molars erupt posterior to the primary teeth and push them all mesially

22. Muscles that work the jaw; may become sore due to occ trauma

23. Mand. retruded-one or more max. incisors retruded; max. laterals protruded-max centrals retruded; crowded max anterior teeth; deep overbite

24. When no teeth are contacting on this side

25. What is not affected by occ trauma
