Eileen Olds - Final Exam WITH THE
BEST SOLUTIONS
1. Which of the following terms applies to the space between the maxillary central incisors?
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
A. Centric relation
J J
B. Open bite
J J
C. Diastema
J
D. Parafunctional
J
E. Fremitus CORRECT ANSWERS✔✔C. Diastema
J J J J
The left and right maxillary central incisors should contact one another at the mesial surface.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
The term diastema is used to describe the space created when adjacent teeth in the same
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
arch do not contact.
J J J J
2. The clinical observation noted in the mandibular sublingual region near the left canine and
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
first premolar (arrow) that is hard when palpated is most likely a
J J J J J J J J J J J J
A. TorusJ
B. PolypJ
C. Mucocele
J
D. Cyst J
E. Ranula CORRECT ANSWERS✔✔A. Torus
J J J J
The radiographs further confirm that this bony exostosis is a torus mandibularis.
J J J J J J J J J J J
3. Which of the following best describes the papillary gingiva between the mandibular right
J J J J J J J J J J J J J
central and lateral incisors?
J J J J
A. Knifelike
J J
B. Cratered
J J
C. Blunted
J
D. Rolled
J J
E. Bulbous CORRECT ANSWERS✔✔E. Bulbous
J J J J
This enlargement of the papilla is referred to as bulbous.
J J J J J J J J J
4. What is the clinical observation contributing to the appearance of the lingual surfaces
J J J J J J J J J J J J J
, of the mandibular anterior teeth?
J J J J
A. Developmental anomalies
J J
B. Periodontal splinting
J J
C. Composite restorations
J J
D. Dental calculus
J J
E. Hypercementosis CORRECT ANSWERS✔✔D. Dental calculus
J J J J J
The mineralized biofilm in this region has built up into a tenacious mass of dental calculus
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
that almost completely covers the lingual surfaces of these teeth.
J J J J J J J J J J
5. Which of the following blood pressure cuffs and area to which it is applied is correct for
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
taking this patient's blood pressure?
J J J J J
A. Child-size cuff applied to the left arm
J J J J J J J
B. Regular adult-size cuff applied to the left arm
J J J J J J J J
C. Regular adult-size cuff applied to the right arm
J J J J J J J J
D. Adult thigh-size cuff applied to the left leg
J J J J J J J J
E. Adult thigh-size cuff applied to the right leg CORRECT ANSWERS✔✔B. Regular adult-
J J J J J J J J J J J J
size cuff applied to the left arm
J J J J J J
Compression of the arteriovenous shunt must be avoided. Therefore, the blood pressure
J J J J J J J J J J J
cuff must not be placed over this patient's right arm. This patient's height and body weight
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
indicate the use of a regular adult-size cuff applied to the left arm.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J
6. For each radiograph listed, select the vertical angulation setting used to obtain the image
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J
using the bisecting technique. (Answers may be used only once.)
J J J J J J J J J J
1. Maxillary right molar periapical
J J J J J
2. Maxillary right canine periapical
J J J J J
3. Maxillary left premolar periapical
J J J J J
4. Mandibular left molar periapical
J J J J J
5. Mandibular central incisor periapical
J J J J J
6. Mandibular right premolar periapical
J J J J
A. +45 J J
B. +30 J J
C. +20 J J
D. −5 J J
E. −10 J J
F. −15 CORRECT ANSWERS✔✔1. Maxillary right molar periapical -> C. +20
J J J J J J J J J J J
2. Maxillary right canine periapical -> A. +45
J J J J J J J J
3. Maxillary left premolar periapical -> B. +30
J J J J J J J J
4. Mandibular left molar periapical -> D. −5
J J J J J J J J
5. Mandibular central incisor periapical -> F. −15
