ILLUSTRATED DENTAL EMBRYOLOGY HISTOLOGY AND ANATOMY 4TH EDITION TEST BANK

Chapter 02: Oral Cavity and Pharynx ILLUSTRATED DENTAL EMBRYOLOGY HISTOLOGY AND ANATOMY 4TH EDITION MULTIPLE CHOICE 1. Which of the following oral landmarks may be noted on the soft palate? a. Incisive papilla b. Palatine rugae c. Median palatine raphe d. Uvula ANS: D A midline muscular structure, the uvula of the palate, hangs down from the posterior margin of the soft palate. The incisive papilla is a small bulge of tissue at the most anterior part of the hard palate. The median palatine raphe is a midline ridge of tissue on the hard palate. The palatine rugae are firm, irregular ridges of tissue on the hard palate. REF: Chapter 2, Palate, Page 15 2. Which of the following oral landmarks separates the base from the body of the tongue? a. Sublingual fold b. Lingual tonsil c. Plica fimbriatae d. Sulcus terminalis ANS: D Posteriorly on the dorsal surface of the tongue is an inverted V-shaped groove, the sulcus terminalis; it separates the base from the body of the tongue, demarcating a line of fusion of tissue during the tongue’s development. A ridge of tissue on each side of the floor of the mouth, the sublingual fold, joins in a V-shaped configuration extending from the lingual frenum to the base of the tongue; it contains openings of the sublingual duct from the sublingual salivary gland. Even farther posteriorly on the dorsal surface of the base of the tongue is an irregular mass of tissue, the lingual tonsil. Lateral to each deep lingual vein on the ventral surface of the tongue is the plica fimbriata (plural, plicae fimbriatae) with fringelike projections. REF: Chapter 2, Tongue, Page 15 3. Which of the following statements concerning Fordyce spots is correct? a. Composed of salivary gland tissue b. Located on the attached gingiva c. Composed of sebum from sebaceous tissue d. Indicate a disease state in the tissue ANS: C On the surface of the labial and buccal mucosa is a common variation, Fordyce spots. These are visible as small, yellowish elevations on the oral mucosa. They represent deeper deposits of sebum from trapped or misplaced sebaceous gland tissue, usually associated with hair follicles. REF: Chapter 2, Clinical Considerations with Oral Mucosa, Page 10 4. The line of demarcation between the attached gingiva and the alveolar mucosa is the: a. mucogingival junction. b. interdental gingiva. c. mucobuccal fold. d. marginal gingiva. ANS: A The line of demarcation between the firmer and pinker attached gingiva and the movable and redder alveolar mucosa is the scallop-shaped mucogingival junction. The interdental gingiva is the gingival tissue between adjacent teeth adjoining attached gingiva. Deep within each vestibule is the vestibular fornix, where the pink labial mucosa or buccal mucosa meets the redder alveolar mucosa at the mucobuccal fold. At the gingival margin of each tooth is the marginal gingiva, which forms a cuff above the neck of the tooth. REF: Chapter 2, Gingival Tissue, Page 13 5. The root of the mature and fully erupted tooth is composed of: a. enamel, dentin, and pulp. b. dentin and pulp. c. dentin, pulp, and cementum. d. pulp, cementum, and periodontal ligament. ANS: C The crown of the tooth is composed of the extremely hard outer enamel layer and the moderately hard inner dentin layer overlying the pulp of the tooth. The pulp is the soft innermost layer in the tooth. The moderately hard dentin continues to cover the soft tissue of the pulp of the tooth in the root(s), but the outermost layer of the root(s) is composed of cementum. The bonelike cementum is the part of the tooth that attaches to the periodontal ligament, which then attaches to the alveolus of bone, holding the tooth in its socket. REF: Chapter 2, Jaws, Alveolar Processes, and Teeth, Page 12 6. Which of the following lingual papillae are located on the lateral surface of the tongue? a. Circumvallate papillae b. Filiform papillae c. Fungiform papillae d. Foliate papillae ANS: D Certain surfaces of the tongue have small, elevated structures of specialized mucosa, the lingual papillae, some of which are associated with taste buds. The side or lateral surface of the TEST BANK FOR ILLUSTRATED DENTAL EMBRYOLOGY HISTOLOGY AND ANATOMY 4TH EDITION BY FEHRENBACH tongue has vertical ridges, the foliate lingual papillae. The dorsal surface has the filiform, fungiform, and circumvallate. REF: Chapter 2, Tongue, Page 15 7. Which of the following folds or grooves of tissue are located on the floor of the mouth? a. Plica fimbriatae b. Labiomental groove c. Sublingual folds d. Labial commissure ANS: C A ridge of tissue on each side of the floor of the mouth, the sublingual fold, joins in a V- shaped configuration extending from the lingual frenum to the base of the tongue. The sublingual folds contain openings of the sublingual duct from the sublingual salivary gland. The labiomental groove is the natural indentation in the chin, just inferior to the lips, that takes its form from the muscles and bones lying beneath the skin. The upper and lower lips meet at each corner of the mouth at the labial commissure. REF: Chapter 2, Floor of Mouth, Page 17 8. Which of the following structures is never visible in any part on a dental intraoral examination? a. Oropharynx b. Laryngopharynx c. Soft palate d. Nasopharynx ANS: B The laryngopharynx is the more inferior division of the pharynx, close to the laryngeal opening. To examine the more extensive parts of the nasopharynx as well as the laryngopharynx or even the oropharynx in some patients, special diagnostic tools are needed. REF: Chapter 2, Pharyngeal Divisions, Page 17 9. A midline depression on the dorsal surface of the tongue is called the: a. median palatine raphe. b. sulcus terminalis. c. labiomental groove. d. median lingual sulcus. ANS: D The top, or dorsal surface of the tongue, has a midline depression, the median lingual sulcus, corresponding to the position of a midline fibrous structure deeper in the tongue and fusion tissue area. A midline ridge of tissue on the hard palate is the median palatine raphe, which overlies the bony fusion of the palate. The labiomental groove is the natural indentation in the chin, just inferior to the lips. Posteriorly on the dorsal surface of the tongue, and more difficult to see clinically, is an inverted V-shaped groove, the sulcus terminalis.

Adult teeth, or teeth, also include all the same teeth as the primary teeth as well as premolars. a. deciduous b. permanent c. baby d. primary ANS: B Adult teeth, or permanent teeth, also include all the same teeth as the primary teeth, as well as premolars. The tooth types in both arches of the teeth of children, or primary teeth, include incisors, canines, and molars. Other terms for the primary teeth are the deciduous or “baby” teeth.
