a patient's permanent tooth crown fractures,creating a small(1mm) pulp exposure for about 30minutes.which of the following pulp therapies is the most appropriate for this patient?
b direct pulp capping with calcium hydroxide.
that's the key.
what's the time limit for direct pulp capping?
a 15 year old patient has all teeth present, normal occlusion, molar toots not fully calcified.the mandibular right fist molar has a pathologic pulp exposure.endodontics failed and the toothe must be extracted.the subsequent treatment indicated is to
a place a space maintainer
b place a removable partial denture.
key is a,why not b?
mesioangular extopic eruption of a permanent maxillary first molar causing resorptong of the distal surfaces of the roots of the primary second molar should be treated by:

a independent on left and right sides of the mouth
b independent of the degree of skeletal development.
which one?why?
does compound odontoma have inductive influence on the mesenchymal tissues?
how?
a periodontal pocket can be seen radiographically on which of the following surfaces?
a mesial
b distal
c both
d none
key is d,why?
a patient wearing complete dentures has trouble swallowing.what is the most probable cause?
a insuffient interocclusal space

a co-cr
b co-ni-cr
c ni-cr
d none(key) why?
the biologic requirements of an anterior 3/4crown include:
a: maintainng the health of the investing tissues
b: a staple form of axial and incisal grooves that prevent axial spreading.
what does b mean?
exposure of a stone cast to tap water should be minimized because
b eroding of the cast will result
how????
which of the following conditions hasten the destruction of a znpo4 cenment film used for luting?
a abrasion(key)
how could the luting be abrased?
the nonrigid connector may be used in fixed bridges in those cases involving
a long span bridges replacing two or more teeth
b short span bridge preplacing one missing toothe where the prepared abutment teeth are not in parallel alighment
b is key.but why not a?
as the denture base settles due to lower ridge resorption,the effect is to
a make the chin recede
b eliminated the mentolabial sulcus
c make the nasolabial fold deepen
d make the chin appear protruded
which two?
which of the following clinical situations are contraindicated for use of a partial veneer crown?
a short teeth
b long teeth
c teeth too small or thin for accurate positioning of proximal grooves
d teeth with prximal contact aresa at the gingival margin
e teeth in a mouth with alow caries index
key is a,c,d
why d?
which characterize nitrous oxide?
a good analgesia
b poor skeletalmuscle relaxation
c rapid induction in concentrations of 80%
why a?
many studies show that nitrous oxide does not have good analgesia,in a study,almost 1/3 labouring women said nitrous oxide has not any effect.
the contact area on the distal surface of a maxillary first premolar should be placed in the
key: occlusal third of the proximal surface with the lingual embrasure greater than the facial embrasure
why occlusal third?should it be middle and occlusal ?
the only area where cavosurface margings or wall juctions of an onlay cavity are never beveled or planed is where?
the facial and lingual cavosurface margins?
when and where can we use zinc choloride-impregnated cord?
which of the following may cause excessively dense radiographs?
a overexposure
b underdevelopment
c backwards placement of the film
d use of excessive milliampere seconds
e a longer cone without adjustment in exposure time

and why?
the primary purpose of a plaster index of the occlusal surfaces of a maxillary denture before removing the denture from the articulator and cast is to
a preserve the face-bow transefer
why ?and how??
to maintain and pretect the health of gingival tissues , correct contoour of a crown is important in which of the following areas?
a middle third
b infragulge or gingival third
c height of contour of suprabulge
d interproximal gingival areas
b,d are keys.why?????
the facial surface of the maxillary right canine contains a lesion, the cervical margin of which is slightly beneath the gingiva,3mm of attached healthy gingiva remains. a composite resin will be uesed,the indicated method of approach should be to
2 retract the gingiva wiht a clamp and rubber dam
3 with retraction cord
how?why not 3?because of the moisture which cannot be controlled by retraction cord?
sulfonamides and trimethoprim are synergistic bacteriostatic agents because in bacteria they 1 interfere sequentially with folinic acid production.
2 both inhibit folic acid synthesis
which one?
from wikipedia:In bacteria, antibacterial sulfonamides act as competitive inhibitors of the enzyme dihydropteroate synthetase, DHPS. DHPS catalyses the conversion of PABA (para-aminobenzoate) to dihydropteroate, a key step in folate synthesis.
the nonrigid connector may be used in construction of a fixed partial denture only when the span is
1 shor and the supoorting alveolus is extensively reduced.
2 short and the supporting alveolus is not extensively reduced.
3 long and the supoorting alveolus is extensively reduced.
4 long and the supporting alveolus is not extensively reduced.
which and why?
loops and helices are used in arch wires primarily to
1 increase flexibility of the wire
2 hold soft tissues away from orthodontic brackets
will attached gingiva increase after properly performed scaling and root planing?why?
which of the following factors should be considered in electing to perform a gingivectomy rather than a periodontal flap?
