Dental occlusion - Angle’s classifications

What is dental occlusion? Dental occlusion refers to the way in which the teeth line up with each other as the jaw goes from open to closed. So malocclusion is when the teeth don’t line up properly, and Angle’s classification of malocclusion is a system used to categorize that: Class 1 - malocclusion, Class 2 - distocclusion, and Class 3 - mesioocclusion.

The groove highlighted purple at 5:37 is the central groove, not the buccal groove where the mesiobuccal cusp of the first molar occludes.

[jackiei]

Can someone clarify normal and class I malocclusion?

[keyachen]

It's very helpful! Thank you very much!

[MattDRT]

Can I please clarify your definition of Class 3? You say the distal surface of the mandibular canines being at least 1 premolar width anterior to the mesial surface of the maxillary canines. Yet the image you have put up would be more consistent with (i think, i am only learning this now from you) the Anterior surface of the mandibular canine being at least 1 premolars width anterior to the distal surface of the maxillary canine.

regardless, thank you for this video!!
