Very interesting. I wish you were both my lecturers

Hey Jaz, I love your video sharing about dental knowledge. Could you please share more about orthodontic treatment especially in Class ii iii case?

[@protrusive]

thanks! Not my core area of expertise or interest but do checkout my friends podcast called Orthodontics in Summary by Farooq Ahmed!

Thanks

Hey Jaz, great video as usual 👌. Had a question, so we check for fremitus in the anterior teeth. That would mean that we dont get fremitus issues in posterior teeth in MIP/ ICP?

[@protrusive]

Great Q - you can defo get fremitus on posterior teeth (ie. you can get occlusal overload anywhere) - it's just that it's often observed on anteriors because the loading of anterior teeth is not along long axis and easier to diagnose

[@98MNN]

what would be your treatment in case of periodontitis + fremitus? First perio treatment and then ortho? Something during the perio treatment?

[@protrusive]

in my non specialist opinion: Perio first (plus any adjustments if possible to reduce occlusal trauma) - ortho to be considered only once no active disease
