Fig. 134.3 Fig. 134.4 Fig. 134.5<br />

Periodontal disease: Considerable (Fig. 134.3). Alveolar resorption at lower right M2 (Fig.<br />

134.4) and left M2 (Fig. 134.5).<br />

Calculus: Abundant (Fig. 134.3).<br />

Malocclusion: lower anterior teeth crowded, with vestibular dislocation <strong>of</strong> right P1 and left<br />

I1, and rotation <strong>of</strong> right I2 (Fig. 134.6).<br />

Shovel shape <strong>of</strong> Upper I1.<br />

Occupational stress indicators and pathological aspects:<br />

The advanced bone erosion prevents to detect most <strong>of</strong> the indicators. Yet, the forearm muscle<br />

insertions appear markedly developed (Fig. 134.7).<br />

Despite <strong>of</strong> the bad preservation <strong>of</strong> the column we can observe that 2 cervical vertebrae<br />

are affected by the ankylosis <strong>of</strong> the arches (Fig 134.8).<br />

The cervical vertebrae show arthritis signs, such as porous surface <strong>of</strong> the<br />

intervertebral facets (Fig.134.9, 134.10), besides C5 body is very shortened.<br />

Other observations: Presence <strong>of</strong> Torus palatinus. Os acromiale <strong>no</strong>t detectable.<br />
