MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. What causes caries?
a. Food debris
b. Materia alba
c. Acidic foodstuff
d. Bacterial plaque
e. Salivary glycoproteins
CORRECT ANSWER: D
Feedback
A Food debris does not have the structural organization of bacterial plaque biofilm.
B Materia alba does not have the structural organization of bacterial plaque biofilm.
C Acidic foodstuff lowers pH and may demineralize teeth but does not directly cause decay.
D Caries is caused by biofilm; also known as bacterial plaque.
E Salivary glycoproteins form the acquired enamel pellicle to which bacteria adhere.

e. C and D are both correct.
CORRECT ANSWER: E
Feedback
A Buccal surfaces are also susceptible to caries; however, there is less surface area left
unchecked.
B Lingual surfaces are also susceptible to caries; however, there is less surface area left
unchecked.
C Caries is most likely to occur in pits and fissures on the occlusal surface and on
interproximal tooth surfaces where plaque accumulates unchecked.
D Caries is most likely to occur in pits and fissures on the occlusal surface and on
interproximal tooth surfaces where plaque accumulates unchecked.
E Caries is most likely to occur in pits and fissures on the occlusal surface and on
interproximal tooth surfaces where plaque accumulates unchecked.
