    The prevention and treatment of oral disease is based on managing the risk, and involves identifying risk factors

    • A.

      Both statements are true

    • B.

      Both statements are false

    • C.

      The first statement is true, and the second statement is false

    • D.

      The first statement is false, and the second statement is true

    Correct Answer
    A. Both statements are true
    Explanation
    The explanation for the given correct answer is that the prevention and treatment of oral disease indeed rely on managing the risk. This means that efforts are made to identify and address the risk factors that contribute to oral diseases, such as poor oral hygiene, tobacco use, unhealthy diet, and lack of regular dental check-ups. By managing these risk factors, individuals can reduce their chances of developing oral diseases and maintain good oral health. Therefore, both statements in the question are true.

  • 2. 

    Risk factors do not necessarily imply cause and effect?

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Risk factors are factors that increase the likelihood of a certain outcome or event occurring. However, the presence of a risk factor does not guarantee that the outcome will occur. Therefore, risk factors do not necessarily imply cause and effect. It is possible for a risk factor to be present without the outcome occurring, or for the outcome to occur without the presence of the risk factor.

      Xerostomia

    Correct Answer(s)
    D. Smoking
    E. Dental caries
    F. Xerostomia
    Explanation
    Smoking, dental caries, and xerostomia are all local factors that can affect the development of oral disease. Smoking is a known risk factor for various oral health problems, including gum disease and oral cancer. Dental caries, or tooth decay, is caused by the breakdown of the tooth enamel due to bacteria and acids produced by plaque. Xerostomia, or dry mouth, can contribute to oral disease as saliva helps to wash away food particles and neutralize acids in the mouth. These local factors directly impact the oral cavity and can increase the risk of developing oral diseases.

    All of the following are true of systemic factors, except?

    • A.

      Affects he hosts ability to prevent oral disease

    • B.

      Affects the hosts resilience to fight against oral disease

    • C.

      Enables the host to develop oral disease more easily

    • D.

      Provides more places for bacteria to hide, multiply and grow

    Correct Answer
    D. Provides more places for bacteria to hide, multiply and grow
    Explanation
    Systemic factors refer to factors that affect the overall health and functioning of the body, including the ability to prevent and fight against oral disease. The first three statements in the options all describe true effects of systemic factors on oral health. However, the last statement, "provides more places for bacteria to hide, multiply and grow," is not true of systemic factors. Systemic factors do not directly provide more places for bacteria to hide or multiply. Instead, they affect the host's ability to prevent and fight against oral disease, which indirectly influences the presence and growth of bacteria in the oral cavity.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    All of the following are true statements of fluoride, except?

    • A.

      Large amounts of fluoride are needed to strengthen teeth and bones

    • B.

      Fluoride-enriched areas on enamel are less acid soluble

    • C.

      Fluoride role is to assist calcium and phosphate ions to latch onto the enamel surface

    • D.

      Fluorine is an element, the 9th in the periodic table

    Correct Answer
    A. Large amounts of fluoride are needed to strengthen teeth and bones
    Explanation
    Fluoride-enriched areas on enamel being less acid soluble, fluoride assisting calcium and phosphate ions to latch onto the enamel surface, and fluorine being the 9th element in the periodic table are all true statements about fluoride. However, large amounts of fluoride are not needed to strengthen teeth and bones. In fact, excessive intake of fluoride can lead to dental fluorosis and skeletal fluorosis, which can weaken teeth and bones. Therefore, the statement "Large amounts of fluoride are needed to strengthen teeth and bones" is incorrect.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    ______________ is mottled enamel (shown in this picture)

    • A.

      Fluorosis

    • B.

      Sealants

    • C.

      Attrition

    • D.

      Errosion

    Correct Answer
    A. Fluorosis
    Explanation
    Fluorosis is a condition caused by excessive intake of fluoride during tooth development, resulting in mottled enamel. This condition is characterized by white or brown stains on the teeth, as shown in the picture. Fluorosis occurs when the enamel is overexposed to fluoride, which can happen through sources like fluoridated water, toothpaste, or supplements. It is important to note that while fluorosis can cause cosmetic concerns, it does not typically affect the function or health of the teeth.

  • 13. 

    Identify which type of fluoride application for the following: Consumed in water, food, beverages, or supplements

    • A.

      Systemic

    • B.

      Topical

    • C.

      Fluoride varnish

    • D.

      Fluorosis

    Correct Answer
    A. Systemic
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Systemic." Systemic fluoride refers to the consumption of fluoride through water, food, beverages, or supplements. This type of fluoride application benefits the entire body as it is ingested and distributed through the bloodstream. It helps in the development of strong teeth and prevents tooth decay from within. Topical fluoride, on the other hand, involves direct application to the tooth surface, such as through toothpaste or mouthwash. Fluoride varnish is a type of topical fluoride treatment that is applied by a dental professional to protect and strengthen the teeth. Fluorosis, on the other hand, refers to a condition caused by excessive fluoride consumption leading to dental fluorosis, which causes discoloration and damage to the teeth.

    Although floss holders are easy to use, they are challenging to curve the floss down into the gumline?

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Floss holders are designed to make flossing easier by providing a handle to hold onto and a pre-threaded floss that can easily be inserted between teeth. However, when it comes to curving the floss down into the gumline, floss holders can be challenging to use. The design of the floss holder may not allow for precise control and maneuverability needed to effectively reach the gumline. Therefore, it is true that floss holders are easy to use but challenging to curve the floss down into the gumline.

    Rate this question:

    Select the flossing aid that passes floss under the pontic?

    • A.

      Bridge threader

    • B.

      Floss holder

    • C.

      Interdental tips

    • D.

      Woodpicks

    Correct Answer
    A. Bridge threader
    Explanation
    A bridge threader is a flossing aid specifically designed to pass floss under a pontic, which is a false tooth in a dental bridge. This tool allows the floss to navigate through the tight spaces between the pontic and the adjacent teeth, ensuring effective cleaning and maintenance of oral hygiene. Floss holders, interdental tips, and woodpicks are not designed for this specific purpose, making the bridge threader the correct choice.

    All of the following are true regarding toothpaste selection, except?

    • A.

      One toothpaste meets everyone's needs

    • B.

      Appropriate level of fluoride

    • C.

      Has ADA seal of approval

    • D.

      Pleasant tasting

    Correct Answer
    A. One toothpaste meets everyone's needs
    Explanation
    Toothpaste selection involves considering several factors, such as the appropriate level of fluoride, the presence of the ADA seal of approval, and a pleasant taste. However, it is not true that one toothpaste can meet everyone's needs. People have different dental concerns, such as sensitivity, gum health, or whitening, which require specific toothpaste formulations. Therefore, it is important to choose a toothpaste that addresses individual needs rather than assuming one toothpaste can cater to everyone.

    The most productive form of learning occurs when the patient is actively participating in the learning process

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Active participation in the learning process enhances productivity because it allows the patient to engage with the material, ask questions, and apply what they have learned. By actively participating, the patient becomes more involved in their own learning, which can lead to better understanding and retention of information. This form of learning encourages critical thinking, problem-solving, and the development of practical skills, making it more effective and productive compared to passive learning methods where the patient is merely a passive recipient of information.
