white plaque on ventral tongue i think this one is the answer , because it is a high risk area

a white plaque of the ant tounge could be even a candidasis patch...also the dorsal tounge is not a very common site for developing squam cell carcinoma...I would say the white patch under the denture could develop into a cancer as a result of trauma

decreasing the amalgam particle size

1. increases flow
2. decreases expansion
3. rettards setting rate
4. increases early strength

I know that both 2 and 4 are correct but we have to make only one choice ...which one would you guys choose ??

 

[persiandentist]

I would choose decrease expansion , I think that they are the same in early strenght but in long term the smal particle would be more strong , but unfortunately I don't have any ref

 

[leda]

which of the following has stronger analgesic properties:

1.acetysalicilic acid 325 mg
2.ibuprofen 400 mg
3.codeine 15 mg
4.acetaminophen 300 mg

The only correct dosage is ibuprofen. What do you think ???

 

[leda]

I would choose decrease expansion , I think that they are the same in early strenght but in long term the smal particle would be more strong , but unfortunately I don't have any ref

is there a difference between early and late strength ?? I was thinking to choose the strength because even the earliest produced amalgams in bigger particles (lathe cut) were changed into smaller spherical for the purpose of reducing mercury content and making the amlgam stronger.

silly question:

in a 10 year old boy to best reduce radiation exposure

use high speed films
or
use thyroid collar and lead apron

well we usually do both , but for this test we have to choose only one.

I choose high speed films , what about you guys ?

 

[leda]

what do gingival and periodontal pockets have in common:

1.apical migration of junctional epithelium
2.fibrotic enlargement of the marginal tissue
3.bleeding upon probing
4.increased depth upon probing

1,2,3
1,3
2,4
4 only
all of above


in periodontal surgery it is improtant to determine the realtion of the base of the pocket to

1.cemento enamel junct
2.furcation
3.tip of interdental papilla
4.muco gingival junction


suprabony pocket may be associated with:

1. increased sulcular depth
2.loss of attachment with horizontal bone loss
3.loss of attachment with vertical bone loss
4.loss of attachment without increase sulcular depth
5. 1 and 2

I really think it could be all of above

 

[leda]

in serial extraction after the extraction of the first premolar
dhe canines will erupt

down and forward
down and backward
primary forward
primarly backward


I think the terminology is not completely correct.
the tooth will erupt distally for sure. Does backwar mean distally ??

I would choose High Speed film too , about the amalgam question I checked small particle amalgams less decrease , more strenght , but I as I remember in some kind of amalgam we must carve after 24 hours , I think maybe it will be a different between early and late strenght , as I told it is anly my opinion , I don't have any ref

4.increased depth upon probing

1,2,3
1,3
2,4
4 only answer
all of above

to me the only common symptom is bleeding upon probing....there is no guarantee that there is always an increased depth upon probing....but the way they have put it here I will choose increase probing depth too..


in periodontal surgery it is improtant to determine the realtion of the base of the pocket to

1.cemento enamel junct
2.furcation
3.tip of interdental papilla
4.muco gingival junction answer

agree, but the cemento enamel junction is important too..I guess that they want to know what will determine the flap design assuming that the probing performed.





suprabony pocket may be associated with:

1. increased sulcular depth answer
2.loss of attachment with horizontal bone loss
3.loss of attachment with vertical bone loss
4.loss of attachment without increase sulcular depth
5. 1 and 2
I would choose 1 and 2 because suprabony periodontal pocket is most likely to be associated with horizontal bone loss

I think bleeding is sign of inflamation , not pocket , we can have fimbromatous pocket without bleeding ,
the amount of attach gingiva is very important in performing a flap , so muccogingival junction is important ,
and if we have bone loss it is not supra bony pocket , it will be infra bony

by carranza definition there are two types os periodontal pockets suprabony with horizontal bone loss and infrabony with vertical bone loss. that is why i am choosing attach plus horizontal bone loss.

what do you think about the serial extraction question ...how does a maxillary canine erupt after premolar is extracted?

 

[persiandentist]

what do you think about the serial extraction question ...how does a maxillary canine erupt after premolar is extracted?

Leda I think in max Premolar erupts first and in mand Canin erupts first ,
it doesn't mention which jaw it means , but according the sequence we can assume max , so maybe it is down and forward ,
but again it is my opinion ,

 

[leda]

which cell is found in the gingival tissue 24 hours after peridontal flap surgery

monocyte
lymphocyte
macrophage
PMN

 

[leda]

do we need a serrated tip condenser for spherical amalgams ?

 

[KSD]

the mesia furcation of a max molar is best probed from

buccal
lingual
buccal and lingual

I am thinking lingual...what do you think ?

lingual

d. A and B
e. all the above.

Im sure A and B are true..but not about C??? it can do tht...any suggestions?

Im sure A and B are true..but not about C??? it can do tht...any suggestions?

MY answer is D, How do you know it will be more opportunity for reattachment? You will have direct access to the pocket(flap out) and the chance to clean all debridement inside the pocket-will pocket reduction, for sure. About reattachment-I am not sure, because you can rich it by other methods, such us root planing, for example.The same opportunity, I think. Correct me, if I am wrong. Thanks.

HEY IVA thanks for the reply!
so i have read that we can assess occulsion more accurately after mounting the cast on an articulator. probably can see from all sides which is not possible clinically....n so im guessing can visualise the direction of forces as well?? wt u think?

i kinda agree with you for this one..but again m not sure,,,

Hello

If you are taking Canadain Fundamental assesment exam in Feb 2011 Please do email me at [email protected].

I'm looking for study partner/group.

I live in Vancouver and BDS graduate from India.

 

[fiona2008]

Did anyone hear something from UBC?

Last year they sent out interview invitations or rejection letters by the end of July. This year I haven't received any response yet.

 

[London2011]

hey london //have u started studyin yet?

Hi Ann k
I have started studying last week for February exam!! Why?
I hope I will have time enough!!!

 

[Sam2011]

Dear Dr Interproximal,

Thank you for allowing me and others the chance to write to you inquiring about U of M process.

I received a letter concluding I am on their alternate list and was wondering first, how much do you think I have a chance of being called?
Since in their letter they are saying I will only have 10 days to prepare or accept what is actually required and what is the practical they are looking at and the OSCE they have mentioned?
Please email me at [email protected]
Kind regards;
Sam

Just got my result,it's 88,to be honest I thought it would be better. Though not bad I suppose ...

Hi! Congratulations! I'm planning to give the EE soon. What books and material did you refer to? I'd really appreciate the help. Thanks!

 

[undisclosed]

Hi Ann k
I have started studying last week for February exam!! Why?
I hope I will have time enough!!!

Hi! Could you tell me what books and material are you referring to? I'm flying to Vancouver at the end of October and then giving the exam after a year. I think we are allowed just three attempts. Do you know for sure? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

 

[undisclosed]

Hi !

I am moving to Vancouver in October and will be happy to study together.
What are you going through now? I am doing Mosby's.

Hi. I am moving to Vancouver around the end of October. My email address is [email protected] You can contact me more easily through the email. I am pretty clueless about the studying part. I am totally lost about where I should begin. I only have my books from the BDS I did in India and the Kaplan notes. What else would I need? Hope to hear from you soon.

 

[undisclosed]

i got 85%

Hi. What books did you study from?

 

[Drcolombia]

hey, I live in kitchener, preparing for 2011, and looking also for study group. contact me [email protected]

1. is there anybody in Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo-Guelph area that is studying for 20011 exams? Maybe we can study together? Anybody?

My opinion for this question:
For amalgam restorations, a 90° cavosurface angle accommodates the
1. condensing of amalgam.
2. compressive strength of amalgam.
3. tensile strength of amalgam.
4. compressive strength of enamel.

A. (1) (2) (3)
B. (1) and (3)
C. (2) and (4)
D. (4) only
E. All of the above. .

Due to amalgam physical properties and tooth anatomy (position of enamel rods) it is important to always have approximately 90° angle at the cavosurface margin. This provides strength to both the amalgam and enamel and prevents enamel not supported by sound dentin being left at the margins of the restoration. (Summitt, 2006)

Which of the following statements is correct
with regard to root canal instrumentation?
A. Reamers only are used in curved
canals.
B. Reamers or files are placed in the
canal to its determined length,
rotated one complete turn, removed,

instrument must be precurved before
insertion.
D. Files are more effective than reamers
for removing necrotic debris from
root canals.

use of a corresponding file.

i chose c but what about d it is little bit confusing

I realy do not understand! There are a lot of guys on this SDN who are talking about study group,they even leave their e-mail address,and nothing.NOTHING! I wrote to at least 10 dentists and I gave them my e-mail,and nobody answered.So my e-mail address is [email protected] and who is realy serious and interested can write me.

So after the results who are applying in univs.......is there any benifit of applying to UBC for out of BC students because they have only 10 percent of seats for out of province students.......alberta is too costly and only 4 seats what are left are uft uwo halifax and manitoba..........so equivalency process seems much better than applications........
