Multiple Choice

1. What Is The Discipline Of Dental
Hygiene?
A. The Study Of Teeth And Their Supporting Structures
B. Brushing And Flossing One’s Teeth And Rinsing With An Antimicrobial
Mouth Rinse Twice A Day, Morning And Night
C. The Study Of Preventive Oral Healthcare, Including The Management Of
Behavior To Prevent Oral Disease And Promote Health
D. The Study Of Those Procedures That Dental Hygienists Provide To Clients
ANS: C
The Study Of Teeth And Their Supporting Structures. This ANSwer Is Wrong Because The
Discipline Of Dental Hygiene Covers Much More Information Than The Study Of Teeth And
Supporting
Structures. Dental Hygiene Focuses On The Preventive Measures That The Teeth And
Supporting Structures Must Receive, In Addition To Other Oral Healthcare Steps That
Must Be Taken To Promote One’s Health.
Brushing And Flossing One’s Teeth And Rinsing With An Antimicrobial Mouth Rinse Twice
A Day, Morning And Night. This ANSwer Is Wrong Because This Statement Describes Only
One Procedure Within The Discipline Of Dental Hygiene. Dental Hygiene Is A Much Larger
And General Field Of Study Than This Simple Preventive Action.
The Study Of Preventive Oral Healthcare Including The Management Of Behavior To
Prevent Oral Disease And Promote Health. This ANSwer Is Correct Because This Is The
Direct Definition Of Dental Hygiene. The Definition Can Be Broken Down Into Smaller,
Specified Divisions To Further Develop The Discipline Of Dental Hygiene.
The Study Of Those Procedures That Dental Hygienists Provide To Clients. This ANSwer Is
Wrong Because Dental Hygienists Play Many Interrelated Roles, Such As Clinician,
Educator, Administrator Or Manager, Advocate, And Researcher. Although Each Of These
Roles Is Created To Assist In Dental Hygiene, The Discipline Is Not Centered On The
Actions And Procedures Of The Dental Hygienist.
