MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. 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.
C
ANSWER: A
LE
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
ST
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.

, BESTLEC
ANSWER: 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.

Contraction of which muscle raises the tongue upward?
a. Mylohyoid
ST
b. Palatopharyngeal
c. Palatoglossal
BE
d. Levator glossal
ANSWER: A
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.
REF: p. 7
OBJ: To define the landmarks in the floor of the mouth and the hard and soft palate and the structures that
form them
