100%.
MRSA correct answers Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-is a strain of the staph
bacteria that lives on 20-30% of the population but does not cause infection in all who are
colonized with it. MRSA resides on the skin and in the nasal passage, and once you contract a
MRSA staph infection it can be very difficult to eradicate the bacteria.
MRSA antibiotics correct answers Many antibiotics can be used to treat this condition. Look for
any of these: vancomycin, linezolid, bactrim, septra, tetracycline, minocycline, doxycycline, and
clindamycin.
Prednisone correct answers Delayed wound healing, poor healing, with increased risk of
infection. This medication affects the immune response.
Ultrasonic insert with plastic tips correct answers Can be used with implants for removal of
calculus. Also, titanium and plastic hand instruments can be used on implants.
Oraqix duration correct answers Approximately 20 minutes.
Hutchinson's Incisors correct answers Congenital syphillus- notched incisal edges on incisors,
also mulberry molars- tiny globules of enamel instead of cusps on first molars.
Class I Occlusion correct answers (Mesognathic)-normal; mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first
molar is positioned in the buccal groove of the mandibular first molar. Maxillary canine occluded
with the distal half of the mandibular canine and the mesial half of the mandibular first premolar.
Class II Occlusion correct answers (Retrognathic) buccal groove of the mandibular first
permanent molar is distal go the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first permanent molar by at
, least the width of a premolar. Distal portion of the maxillary canine is mesial to the mesial
portion of the mandibular canine by at lease the width of a premolar.
Division I-retruded mandible with one or more maxillary anterior teeth protruded facially.
Division II- retruded mandible with one or more maxillary anterior teeth inclined lingually.
Class III Occlusion correct answers (Prognathic) Buccal groove of the mandibular first
permanent molar is mesial to the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first permanent molar by at
lease the width of a premolar. Mesial portion of the maxillary canine is distal to the distal surface
of the mandibular canine by the width of a premolar.
Leeway space correct answers This difference in size, mesiodistally between the two types of
teeth. The contour of the bone covering the narrower roots of the premolars, in addition to the
state of flux of the bone formation in this area, furnishes adjustment for dental arch
measurements, making the middle segment of the arches important architecturally. Leeway space
allows the future forward movement of the permanent molars.
Hairy tongue correct answers Elongation of filiform papillae (dorsum) clean tongue.
Hairy leukoplakia correct answers Lateral border, white, corrugated lesions, associated with HIV,
Epstein Barr virus.
Geographic tongue correct answers Benign, inflammatory condition, irregular patches look like
map.
Anemia correct answers Impaired O2 delivery, 1st pale tongue, flattening of filiform papillae,
finally painful and red.
Fissured tongue correct answers Associated with xerostomia, clean tongue.
