 Hello everybody, Andrea Mayeski here with Dental L Tutoring. So on Sunday we will be learning about orthodontics and occlusion. So we will be going through case studies. Our teaching sessions are usually about one hour where all we do is go through case studies. So it's good practice for the board exam. And I do have a coupon code out right now because everybody's always asking about a discount. It makes sense until the weekend for $10 off if you do purchase either the board exam prep academy or the Dental L student program. So the board exam prep academy is for students who are prepping for the board exam soon or if you're still in school then you want the Dental L student program because you have full access to everything for about four years or until you graduate. So it just sort of depends on where you are in your studies. But so let me just show you guys the PowerPoint here for one second. So this is what we will be going through at our next lecture session. So our lecture sessions are about an hour long as I said where all we do is go through case studies. Now there's a different topic every single week so always lots to learn and I just wanted to show you guys really really quickly. So as you guys can see there's tons of case studies, tons of images, tons of photos, answers and I do explain all of them as well which helps. Now I just wanted to talk to you guys quickly though about classes of occlusion because I was reading a comment from a YouTube watcher about a week ago and they did ask me to talk about occlusion so let's talk about it. Now I remember when I was a student I got very confused because some of my teachers would talk about occlusion in different ways. Some of them talk about the maxillary teeth and some of them talk about the teeth on the mandible. So I find it easier to think about the teeth on the top. So on the maxilla because that is what I guess determines the class of occlusion if that makes sense. So what I like to do is I like to think about the first year molars when I'm thinking about classes of occlusion. So class one so normal is when your mesial buccal cusp of the six so in Canada or I'll just say the first year molars so that everybody knows what that is so your first molar the mesial buccal cusp goes into the groove of your first year molar your first molar however you want to talk about it on the mandible so you're looking at the top and looking at the bottom. Now let's keep it simple okay so that is your perfect your normal class of occlusion class one. Class two is when that first molar on the top is more mesial that's the only way I think about it it's more mesial so that cusp here is just simply more mesial this way more mesial this way so if you picture that in your head your maxilla is more interior so you have that kind of look to it okay I probably looked a little bit silly but that's how you guys will get the picture right that's the only way I think about it I keep it simple I don't think okay so the mesial buccal cusp of the first molar is mesial to the mesial buccal cusp no I don't even think like that I just simply think that first main cusp is mesial so more interior more forward okay and class three is the opposite that first cusp is more distal more posterior to the first molar on the bottom that's it see how much easier that is to understand at least it is for me and I did have a couple pictures for my students too because we all learn in different ways so you could look at this one here if that's easier for you to understand or I also had this one here if that's you know easier for you to picture so being a member does have its advantages because you get different I guess forms of studying plus we have our sessions live every single Sunday so if I'm teaching and you say okay I'm sorry I didn't quite understand that then I stop and I will explain it to you in a different way until you do understand it so I do hope that this helped as I said until this weekend if you would like to sign up to be a member either for the board exam prep academy or the dental L student program you get full access to new case studies every single week case studies you guys case studies mocking it mock exams the whole works you will have me every single Sunday so if you guys have questions I come on live every single Sunday and just help you guys answer any questions that you may have and we all love a discount so until this weekend if you sign up you can have ten dollars off and save on the tax I do have the code on the discount code below I wrote it down I'm sorry I can't remember it now but I am going to copy that for you guys in the comments area below so just have a look and feel free to sign up because it is awesome and you will not be sorry because it will be so much easier to study less stressful less overwhelming I wish I had a tutor when I was at school and if you guys have questions please be sure to comment below and I will answer you thank you guys so much for watching and I will see you guys all inside
