The tool is superimposed over the teeth for the scoring measurement, each tooth present is scored 0, 1 or 2. [8] 2 types of malalignment are being measured, rotation and displacement. Rotation is defined as the angle formed by the line projected through contact areas of observed tooth and the ideal arch line.
(To some extent rotation influences the geometry via Coriolis forces and centrifugal distortion, but this is negligible for the present discussion.) In addition to translation and rotation, a third type of motion is molecular vibration , which corresponds to internal motions of the atoms such as bond stretching and bond angle variation.
Dentition analyses are systems of tooth and jaw measurement used in orthodontics to understand arch space and predict any malocclusion (mal-alignment of the teeth and the bite). [1] Example systems of dentition analysis are listed below.
FDI Notation, teeth's quadrants FDI World Dental Federation notation (also "FDI notation" or "ISO 3950 notation") is the world's most commonly used dental notation (tooth numbering system). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is designated by the International Organization for Standardization as standard ISO 3950 "Dentistry — Designation system for teeth and ...
The term posterior teeth refers to premolars and molars, as opposed to incisors and canines, which are anterior teeth. [1] [5] Proximal The surfaces of teeth that normally lie adjacent to another tooth. Proximal includes both mesial and distal, such as when referring to the proximal surfaces of teeth. [1] Quadrant

The Palmer notation consists of a symbol (⏌⎿ ⏋⎾) designating in which quadrant the tooth is found and a number indicating the position from the midline. Adult teeth are numbered 1 to 8, with deciduous (baby) teeth indicated by a letter A to E.
