Distoclusion
Chapter 11 |
A class II malocclusion in which the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first molar occludes (by more than the width of a premolar) mesial to the mesiobuccal groove of the mandibular first molar.

Embrasure
Chapter 11 |
Triangular space in a gingival direction between the proximal surfaces of two adjoining teeth in contact.
