Question 72 · LDEK · Functional disorders of the masticatory system
The prevention of functional disorders of the masticatory system in reconstructive procedures with the use of fixed dentures should involve:
1) removal of Christensen’s phenomenon;
2) reconstructing the correct occlusal vertical dimension;
3) reconstructing the physiological orientation of the prosthetic occlusal plane;
4) reestablishing the proper relationship between the mandible and the maxilla;
5) securing the guidance on molars during lateral mandibular movements.
The correct answer is:
2) reconstructing the correct occlusal vertical dimension;
3) reconstructing the physiological orientation of the prosthetic occlusal plane;
4) reestablishing the proper relationship between the mandible and the maxilla;
5) securing the guidance on molars during lateral mandibular movements.
The correct answer is:
- A. 1,2.
- B. 2,4.
- C. 3,4.
- D. 2,3,4.
- E. 3,5.
