DEH 1800 Midterm (Poole) study set
graded A
What is CAMBRA? - Caries management by risk assessment, an evidence based
disease management protocol
What do risk factors affect? - Treatment, patient management, and outcomes
How do we obtain information about our patient's? - interviewing, comprehensive
health, dental, and pharmacologic histories, clinical exam and radiographic exam
What are four clinical observations that indicate past caries history and activity? -
1) caries/radiographs to dentin
2) Interproximal enamel lesions (by radiographs)
3) White spot lesions
4) Restorations within last 3 years
T/F - Attending school that has fluoridated water increases caries risk. - False
T/F - Adequate salivary flow is a protective factor against caries risk. - True
T/F Medication and radiation can be a risk factor for caries risk. - True - may affect
salivary flow
T/F Frequent snacking can reduce caries risk. - False
,Lactobacilli and strep are both _________ producing bacteria that increase caries
risk in medium to high counts. - acid
T/F All risk factors are modifiable. - False
What is self-efficacy? - confidence in one's own capability to perform a certain
task at a certain level of proficiency
Three Phases of Prevention - 1) promote - prevention (sealants/fluoride)
2) restore - early detection and treatment
3) maintain - complex therapy
The ORA system uses three steps. What are they? - 1) Review
2) Assess
3) Recommend
What is our primary goal as dental hygienists? - Educate - get patients to want
what they need
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs - physiological, safety, love/belonging, esteem, self-
actualization (bottom to top)
Human Needs Theories - Creates tension in a person's system
Goal directed behavior
Needs fullfillment
Motivator
, What are four examples of physiological needs? - Food, sleep, fluids, exercise
What are examples of safety and security needs? - Stability, freedom from stress
and anxiety, psychological, physical, structure, protection
What does a person need in order for their Love and Belonging needs to be met? -
Affection, a place within their culture, group, or family
Self esteem includes: - confidence in self, self-worth, achievement, usefulness,
Lack of self-esteem causes: - feelings of inferiority, helplessness, and
discouragement
What is self-actualization? - the process by which people achieve their full
potential, able to solve problems
How does Human Needs Theory relate to Dental Hygiene? - transcends all ages,
cultures, genders, nationalities
emphasizes client-centered humanistic approach
connects oral cavity with the total person
T/F - The higher the level of human need fulfillment, the higher the state of
wellness for the individual. - True
Environment affects the client and RDH. The client and RDH influence the
environment. - Both statements are true.
