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.
ANSWER: A
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 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.

OBJ: To describe the boundaries and sub-boundaries of the oral cavity and the
structures in each area
NAT: CDA: GC I.A.6. Identify basic oral anatomy and physiology, including but not
limited to: oral cavity. TOP: BLOOM: Remembering
2. Torus palatinus is seen on the
a. soft palate
b. hard palate
c. alveolar ridge
d. oral pharynx
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.
REF: p. 5
OBJ: To define the terms vestibule, oral cavity proper, mucobuccal fold, frenum, alveolar
mucosa, gingiva, exostoses, torus palatinus, and torus mandibularis

but not limited to: bones. TOP: BLOOM: Remembering
3. Contraction of which muscle raises the tongue upward?
a. Mylohyoid
b. Palatopharyngeal
c. Palatoglossal
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
NAT: CDA: GC I.A.4. Identify basic oral anatomy and physiology, including
but not limited to: muscles. TOP: BLOOM: Remembering
4. The oral vestibule is partially bordered by the lips and cheeks. The oral
cavity proper extends posteriorly to the soft palate.
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.
ANSWER: B
The oral vestibule is the space or potential space that exists between the lips
or cheeks and teeth. In an edentulous person, the vestibule would extend
between the lips or cheeks and the alveolar ridges. The oral cavity proper is
surrounded by teeth or alveolar ridges and extends all the way back to the
palatine tonsils. This includes the region from the floor of the mouth upward
to the hard and soft palates.
