SO HERE IS WHAT I CAN FIND, ACCORDING TO MY SEARCH EXCEPT STEROID ALL ARE TRUE
HERE IS THE EXPLANATION

Hairy tongue is an uncommon, benign condition that is also known as black hairy tongue or lingua nigra. It is characterized by abnormal elongation and blackish or dark brownish discoloration or "staining" of the thread-like elevations (filiform papillae) that cover most of the tongue's surface (dorsum linguae). Such changes often begin at the back (posterior) region of the top of the tongue and extend toward the front (anterior) of the tongue's surface but never involve the undersurface.

The specific underlying cause of hairy tongue is unknown. However, possible predisposing factors may include poor oral hygiene and overgrowth of pigment-producing bacteria or fungi in the mouth, treatment with certain antibiotic medications, smoking, chewing tobacco, and/or mouthwash use.
.

















Each causes Hairy Leukoplakia except:
- Steroids
- Mouth Wash
- Antibiotics
- Candida
Quite Frankly , none of them causes Oral Hairy Leukoplakia......unless the question meant Oral Hairy Tongue......

You are right. It doesn't make sense. It has to be hairy tongue. In that case the answer is Steriods (99% sure).
 
64. Which of the following is most often associated
with a nonvital tooth?
A. Chronic periradicular periodontitis.
B. Internal resorption.
C. Periapical cemento-osseous dysplasia.
D. Hyperplastic pulpitis. (PULP POLYP)
QUESTION NO. 64The pulp polyp, also known as chronic hyperplastic pulpitis or proliferative pulpitis, is an uncommon and specific type of inflammatory hyperplasia that is associated with a nonvital tooth.

Pulpal diseases are broadly divided into reversible and irreversible pulpitis and are based on the ability of the inflamed dental pulp to return to a healthy state once the noxious stimulus has been removed. In the case of the pulp polyp, the disease process is irreversible. In contrast to most cases of irreversible pulpitis, the pulp polyp is usually an incidental finding that occasionally mimics reactive and neoplastic diseases of the gingiva and adjacent periodontium.

Hi all, I took the exam today. I can not remember the questions exactly but there where A LOT from previous exams (released).
1- Normal amount of fluoride in water (ppm). And more questions about fluoride.
2- Most common caries: interprox, smooth surf., fits & fissures, roots.
3- Amount of epi in one carp with 1:100,000.
4- Sedation used in a pregnant woman who's breastfeeding.
5- Stages of a shock
6- Treatment for chronic periodontitis
7- Lots on behavioral sciences
8- The instrument for carving the beavel on a prox. surf for a gold onlay. The options were something like: 14-90-25-08. I had no idea about that one, and the other options were something similar.

Honestly, with the released exams you will get a lot of questions. Very few I had not heard about before, but everything is in the decks & exams.

Hope this helps ;)

A: A
It cant be pulp polyp since the cause of the pulp proliferation is the continuous irritation of the young exposed pulp with PERSISTENT VITALITY, constantly stimulated by exposure.
In internal resorption, although it may occur in chronic pulpal inflammation, it also occurs as an idiopathic dystrophic change. Trauma in the form of accidental blow, or traumatic cavity preparation, has often been indicted as a triggering mechanism for internal resorption.
Cant be periapical cemento-osseous dysplasia bec. it is a benign condition of the jaws that may arise from the fibroblasts of the periodontal ligaments.
 
THANKS BOTULISM FOR THE CLARIFICATION. IT MEANS PULP POLYP IS VITAL ..Right??

the ans should be Chronic periradicular periodontitis. in pulp polyp the pulp is still vital.

bloody procedure if you're trying to treat pulp polyp. I've extracted quite a few of them.


from google search:

The pulp polyp, also known as chronic hyperplastic pulpitis or proliferative pulpitis, is an uncommon and specific type of inflammatory hyperplasia that is associated with a nonvital tooth.

The pulp polyp is the result of both mechanical irritation and bacterial invasion into the pulp of a tooth that exhibits significant crown destruction due to trauma or caries. The mechanical causes that may stimulate this response include a tooth fracture with pulpal exposure or loss of a dental restoration. Usually, the entire dentinal roof is exposed with the crown of a carious tooth. The large exposure of pulpal tissue to the oral environment and bacterial invasion results in a chronic inflammatory response that stimulates an exuberant granulation tissue reaction

please correct me if i'm wrong
thanks:)


7. bacterial infection may be confirmed by
1. WBC
2. hemoglobin count
3. erythrocyte sedimentation rate
4. platelet count

a. 12&3 b. 1&3 c. 2&4 d. 4 only e. all of the above:thumbup:

I believe the ans is 1&3

Sed rate is used to measure the extent of tissue inflammation.
 
The pulp is nonvital in pulp polyp.

Young pulp does not become necrotic after exposure bec. its natural defenses and rich supply of blood, allow it to resist bacterial infection.
MIcroscopically, pulp polyp is a complex of new capillaries, proliferating fibroblasts, and inflammatory cells. Support for the protruding mass is supplied by collagenous fibers rooted in the deeper pulp tissue of the chamber. All these descriptions prove that pulp polyp is still has been associated with vital tooth.
Just think about it...

Pulp polyp is Vital... There is no doubt about it.
Presence of blood supply indicate Vitality of teeth and in case of pulp polyp histologically have large number of proliferated capillaries and even in treatment of pulp polyp we can do pulpotomy which itself suggest that tooth is vital....
I think there is more then enough discussion on Pulp polyp had already been done.

Thnks.

hi guys, dont buy those "unreleased new 2007 exam file" those are not a new one. i saw it and noticed that its like 2006..and its all here already:eek:

i dont think that there are " unreleased remembered exam file" ....
yet, i hoped so......

Purchasing and/or sharing unreleased exam items is illegal and unethical. Doing so will result in your scores being voided and your fee forfeited. You will have to wait at least two years to test again. Additional civil and legal penalties may also be imposed.
 
1.a major advantage to patient treatment with osseointegrated dental implants is a change in the pattern ofedentulous ridge resorption, which of the following is believed to be the reason for a more physiologicloading of the bonea. delayed loadingb. endosteal loadingc. sequential loadingd. progressive loadinge. mucoperiosteal loading.
2.which of the following is seen MOST frequently among temporomandibular-joint dysfunction patienta. depressionb. psychosisc. sociopathyd. schizotypical behaviore. passive-aggressive behavior
 
took test in last wk.

new deck and released exam is good.
dental secret is good,
oral maxillofacial secret is good
mosby in last min..only reviewed management(very helpful) and pharm(ok)...implant ch was not good.
someone advised me oral med secret is good but i couldnt review bc of lacking time.

sdn questions are not there alot. ... (stop talking about dental polyp tho...it was not on my test at all) but sdn q is pretty good for your practice.

day 1 was easier than my practice exam.

day 2 become more difficult. one pedo case..and lots of geriatrics cases.

Explaination given by Chinnu is a good one, just to add some more regarding Penumbra i would like to add some more.
The finite size of the focal spot of an x-ray tube produces a penumbra in x-ray images. Optical spatial-filtering techniques are being developed to compensate for penumbral effects in medical x-ray photographs and thereby improve the contrast and resolution. The first known successful results on x-ray images are described. ©1970 The American Institute of Physics:thumbup:

HI
CAN U EXPLAIN THE ANSWER? Y AMALGAM AND Y NOT COMPOSITE? BECOZ IF WE R TALIKNG ABT COEFF . OF THERMAL EXPANSION THEN, IT IS HIGHER FR COMPOSITE THAN AMALAGM. SO THE ANSWER CAN B COMPOSITE . PL CORRECT ME IFIAM WRONG.
 
Ans to question is amalgam should not be placed into deep cavities otherwise it iwll increase the microleakage property that's why the need of cavity varnish and also with amalgam there will be dentin discoloration due to mercury penetration into dentinal tubules.
I HOPE IT ANSWERS THE q's GOOD LUCK IN YOUR EXAM!
 
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!:confused:

I think answer for 24 is E.
Source-http://www.answers.com/topic/gingival-color?cat=health
The colour of the gums is generally described as coral pink. It is produced by the Vascular supply, the thickness and degree of keratinization of the epithelium and the presence of pigment containing cells. The colour of the gums varies among persons and appears to be correlated with the cutaneous pigmentation. It is lighter in blond individuals with a fair complexion than in dark complexioned brunettes. The colour of the gums may also be red, smooth and shiny. The gums are also known as gingiva.
