Jennifer A Pieren: Darby & Walsh Dental Hygiene: Theory And Practice 6th Edition, Test Bank
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. What Is The Discipline Of Dental Hygiene?
A. The Study Of Teeth And Their Supporting Structures
B. Brushing And Flossing One’s Teeth And Rinsing With An Antimicrobial Mouth Rinse
Twice A Day, Morning And Night
C. The Study Of Preventive Oral Healthcare, Including The Management Of Behavior To
Prevent Oral Disease And Promote Health
D. The Study Of Those Procedures That Dental Hygienists Provide To Clients
ANS: C
The Study Of Teeth And Their Supporting Structures. This Answer Is Wrong Because
The Discipline Of Dental Hygiene Covers Much More Information Than The Study Of
Teeth And Supporting Structures. Dental Hygiene Focuses On The Preventive Measures
That The Teeth And Supporting Structures Must Receive, In Addition To Other Oral
Healthcare Steps That Must Be Taken To Promote One’s Health.
Brushing And Flossing One’s Teeth And Rinsing With An Antimicrobial Mouth Rinse
Twice A Day, Morning And Night. This Answer Is Wrong Because This Statement
Describes Only One Procedure Within The Discipline Of Dental Hygiene. Dental
Hygiene Is A Much Larger And General Field Of Study Than This Simple Preventive
Action.
The Study Of Preventive Oral Healthcare Including The Management Of Behavior To
Prevent Oral Disease And Promote Health. This Answer Is Correct Because This Is The
Direct Definition Of Dental Hygiene. The Definition Can Be Broken Down Into Smaller,
Specified Divisions To Further Develop The Discipline Of Dental Hygiene.
