Anatomy of Orofacial Structures, 8th Edition Brand/Isselhard Test Bank Complete

Anatomy of Orofacial Structures, 8th Edition Brand/Isselhard Test Bank Complete. A diastema is a space between two teeth in the same arch. When this occurs between the maxillary central incisors, it is often the result of a pronounced labial frenum. a. Both statements are true. b. The first statement is true; the second statement is false. c. The first statement is false; the second statement is true. d. Both statements are false. ANS: A A space, or lack of contact area, between any two teeth in the same arch is called a diastema. When a diastema occurs between the maxillary central incisors, it is often the result of a pronounced labial frenum extending to the crest of the alveolar ridge and possibly over the ridge. This band of firm connective tissue causes the erupting incisors to be pushed aside resulting in a diastema, or space. Correction of a diastema usually involves surgical removal, or cutting, of the frenal tissue between teeth.

Identify basic oral anatomy and physiology, including but not limited to: oral cavity. TOP: BLOOM: Remembering 2. Torus palatinus is seen on the a. soft palate b. hard palate c. alveolar ridge d. oral pharynx ANS: B Torus palatinus is excess bone growth and occurs in the midline of the hard palate. It may grow to varying sizes and is generally only a problem when the construction of a maxillary denture is necessary. In health, such bony protuberances, or excess bone growths, do not occur on the soft palate, alveolar ridge, or oral pharynx.

Palatoglossal d. Levator glossal ANS: A Anatomy of Orofacial Structures 8th Edition Brand Test Bank U S N T O Contraction of the mylohyoid muscle raises the tongue. The palatopharyngeal muscle and the palatoglossal muscle form the posterolateral borders of the oral cavity. There is not a muscle by the name of levator glossal.

The oral cavity proper extends posteriorly to the soft palate. a. Both statements are true. b. The first statement is true; the second statement is false. c. The first statement is false; the second statement is true. d. Both statements are false. ANS: B The oral vestibule is the space or potential space that exists between the lips or cheeks and teeth. In an edentulous person, the vestibule would extend between the lips or cheeks and the alveolar ridges. The oral cavity proper is surrounded by teeth or alveolar ridges and extends all the way back to the palatine tonsils. This includes the region from the floor of the mouth upward to the hard and soft palates.

Which one is the EXCEPTION? a. It is located at the most posterior portion of the hard palate. b. It is located at the midline. c. It is a downwardly projecting muscle. d. It is necessary for swallowing. ANS: D The uvula is a downwardly projecting muscular tissue located at the midline of the most posterior portion of the hard palate. It is NOT necessary for swallowing. REF: p. 6 OBJ: To define the landmarks in the floor of the mouth and the hard and soft palate and the structures that form them NAT: CDA: GC I.A.6.

The circumvallate papillae are located on the hard palate, buccal mucosa, and floor of the mouth. The papillae found on the tongue are the filiform, fungiform, vallate, foliate, and incisive. a. Both statements are true. b. The first statement is true; the second statement is false. c. The first statement is false; the second statement is true. Anatomy of Orofacial Structures 8th Edition Brand Test Bank U S N T O d. Both statements are false. ANS: D All papillae listed in both statements are located on the tongue with the exception of the incisive papilla, which is located on the hard palate. Note that the incisive papilla is a singular structure, thus the different spelling. There are no papillae located on either the buccal mucosa or the floor of the mouth.
