This document provides the complete test bank for Illustrated Dental Embryology, Histology, and Anatomy (5th edition by Fehrenbach), covering all 20 chapters of the textbook. It includes multiple-choice, multiple-response, matching, and application-based questions, each accompanied by the correct answer and, in many cases, explanatory feedback. The questions are designed to test comprehension, recall, and applied understanding, making it an essential resource for exam preparation. The content spans the full range of dental anatomy and histology topics: head and neck anatomy, oral cavity and pharynx, prenatal and orofacial development, tooth development and eruption, oral tissues, enamel, dentin, pulp, periodontium, temporomandibular joint, occlusion, and both primary and permanent dentitions. Because of its detailed structure and alignment with CDA and NBDHE competencies, this test bank is especially valuable for dental students, dental hygiene students, and anyone preparing for licensing or certification exams. By working through these test questions, students can self-assess their knowledge, practice exam-style questions, and identify weak areas before formal assessments. This makes the document not only a study aid but also a comprehensive tool for mastering key concepts in dental embryology, histology, and anatomy.

MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Which surface of the body is visualized by the clinician when performing
an extraoral examination of the patient’s eyes?
a. Anterior
b. Posterior
c. Superior
d. Lateral
ANS: A

Feedback
A The patient’s eyes are visualized on the anterior surface of the patient’s
body.
B The patient’s eyes would NOT be easily visualized on the posterior of
the patient’s body.
C The patient’s eyes would NOT be easily visualized on the superior
surface of the patient’s body.
D The patient’s eyes would NOT be easily visualized on the lateral surface
of the patient’s body.

2. Which of the following is CORRECT concerning the sagittal plane of the body?
a. Parallel to the median plane
b. Parallel to the frontal plane
c. Parallel to the horizontal plane
d. Parallel to the coronal plane
ANS: A

Feedback
A A sagittal plane is parallel to the median plane.
B A sagittal plane is NOT parallel to the frontal plane but perpendicular.
C A horizontal plane is perpendicular to the median plane. A sagittal
plane is parallel to the median plane. Thus a horizontal plane is
perpendicular to a sagittal plane.
D A sagittal plane is NOT parallel to the coronal plane but perpendicular.

, 3. What is the anatomic relationship of the right arm to the left leg?
a. Sagittal
b. Contralateral
c. Ipsilateral
d. Midsagittal

ANS: B

Feedback
A The two legs are contralateral to each other. Sagittal describes a plane
of division of the body created by an imaginary plane parallel to the
median plane.
B Contralateral structures are located on the opposite side of the body,
which is the anatomic relationship of the right arm to the left leg.
C Ipsilateral refers to structures on the same side of the body; in
contrast, the two legs are contralateral to each other and thus are
located on the opposite side of the body.
D The two legs are contralateral to each other. Midsagittal describes a
plane that divides the body into right and left halves.

4. When a patient is in anatomic position, what is the surface of the palms of
the hand considered?
a. Anterior
b. Lateral
c. Medial
d. Posterior
ANS: A

Feedback
A The palms of the hands in anatomic position are facing toward the front
and are anterior (or ventral).
B The palms of the hands in anatomic position are NOT facing lateral or
away
from the median plane but are facing toward the front and are anterior
(or ventral).
C The palms of the hands in anatomic position are NOT facing medial or
toward the median plane but are facing toward the front and are
anterior (or ventral).
D The palms of the hands in anatomic position are NOT facing toward the
posterior or back of the body but are facing toward the front and are
anterior (or ventral).
