(Lecture made up from articles 1, 2 , 3, 4 & 5 ) approximately 6 hours
Resolution 2.35 to 1 / full wide screen
presentation with sound.
This page presents some
of the many graphic elements that make up the lecture programs
Unlike the articles
where the illustrations are 2D, the lectures are fully dimensional. In
total darkness
these lectures are
dynamic in every sense of the word, almost haunting to look at. Each
unique and animated,
you will feel the
content, the sound and the intention of what they bring over.
Created as CGI models
the lectures unfold
explaining a science that is complex as it is fascinating.
Lecture One; starts our
journey at the beginning when our skeletal arrangement was quite
different,
and takes us through to
modern man.
After the introduction
to what Gnathology is we move on to the Gnathological and
Orthographical views
that can be used to view our three dimensional dental space explaining the
xyz/+
concept, Ghost's
and most of all the "Notes and Quavers" of each human signature.
We discuss the science of fulcrums, there classifications and how they
work within the
human framework. Article three included the remaining elements of
the vertical dimension and introduced anterior
guidance and condylar curvatures. All of these elements are part of
lecture One.
The classification of mandible position and how it alters one's facial
features as seen here in this illustration
explains many aspects of Gnathology. These lectures explain the
implications and technical difficulties
of each configuration and how to deal with them in the mechanical
appraisal.
As we move through lecture one, elements evolve that explain how
the mandible operates within
a 3 dimensional environment and how function is driven by skeletal and
variable components
-
- Animations bring
over how levers work accordingly to the mandible. Gauges show loads and
there effects
- on fulcrum
points and relative cusp loadings. Using animations it is far easier to
understand what
- happens to
dentition when the classification of levers changes according to fulcrum
points.
The lecture includes
curves and here we discuss what curve will work effectively and
efficiently
within our
3-Dimensional dental space. The subject is complex and not easily
defined as the muscles of
mastication lie distal
to the last molar supported by the Ramus. However explanations and
guide lines
in how to determine the
correct curve are explained as lecture one progresses.
The final part of
lecture one illustrates how the condylar guidance and anterior
guidance interact.
One is a skeletal
component the other a variable and both operate independently from
each other
but both effect each
other significantly.
