2. Which instrument not for ART?

Explanation

The slow speed hand piece is the only instrument listed that is not typically used for dental ART (atraumatic restorative treatment). ART is a minimally invasive approach to dental treatment that focuses on preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible. The mouth mirror, tweezers, spoon excavator, and probe are all commonly used in ART procedures to examine and prepare the tooth, remove decay, and restore the tooth using restorative materials. The slow speed hand piece, on the other hand, is typically used for other types of dental procedures such as drilling and shaping the tooth.

Submit
3. Which instrument for ART?

Explanation

The correct answer is that all of the instruments mentioned (mouth mirror, probe, tweezers, and spoon excavator) can be used for ART (Atraumatic Restorative Treatment). Each instrument serves a specific purpose in the ART procedure, such as examining the teeth (mouth mirror), detecting caries (probe), removing caries (spoon excavator), and handling materials (tweezers).

Submit
4. Which instrument not for ART?

Explanation

The high speed handpiece is not used for ART (Atraumatic Restorative Treatment), which is a minimally invasive dental technique that aims to remove as little healthy tooth structure as possible. The high speed handpiece is typically used for procedures that require cutting or removing a significant amount of tooth structure, such as cavity preparation for fillings or crown preparations. In ART, instruments like the mouth mirror, tweezers and spoon excavator, and probe are commonly used for diagnosis, cleaning, and removing decayed tooth material.

Submit
5. Fluoride can: ?

Explanation

Fluoride is known to prevent dental caries or tooth decay. It does so by strengthening the enamel, the outer layer of the teeth, making it more resistant to acid attacks from bacteria and sugars in the mouth. This helps to prevent the demineralization or breakdown of the enamel, which can lead to cavities. Fluoride does not cause bleaching or hypersensitivity. Therefore, the correct answer is that fluoride can prevent dental caries.

Submit
6. Minimal Intervention management is:?

Explanation

Minimal Intervention management is a conservative approach that aims to preserve as much of the natural tooth structure as possible when treating dental cavities. This approach focuses on removing only the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth, while leaving the healthy tooth structure intact. By doing so, it minimizes the need for extensive restoration or invasive procedures, resulting in better long-term oral health outcomes for the patient.

Submit
7. What is the difference between pulp chamber of primary teeth and permanent teeth?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Bigger in primary teeth". The pulp chamber refers to the space within the tooth that contains the dental pulp, which consists of nerves and blood vessels. In primary teeth, the pulp chamber is relatively larger compared to permanent teeth. This is because primary teeth are smaller in size and have thinner enamel and dentin layers, which results in a larger proportion of the tooth being occupied by the pulp chamber.

Submit
8. Extraction in the mixed dentition?

Explanation

The answer 1, 2, and 3 are correct because extraction in the mixed dentition may be necessary as part of orthodontic treatment, it may be due to caries (tooth decay), or it may be a result of trauma.

Submit
9. Fissures sealant use for: ?

Explanation

Fissure sealants are used to protect sound primary and permanent molars with deep pits and fissures. These deep grooves on the chewing surfaces of the teeth can be difficult to clean properly, making them more susceptible to decay. By applying a sealant, a thin protective coating, to these areas, the risk of cavities forming is reduced. It acts as a barrier, preventing food particles and bacteria from getting trapped in the pits and fissures, thus helping to maintain the overall oral health of the teeth.

Submit
10. Bacteria cause tooth decay: ?

Explanation

Mutans streptococcus is the correct answer because it is a type of bacteria that is primarily responsible for tooth decay. It is commonly found in the mouth and feeds on sugars, producing acids that erode tooth enamel and lead to the formation of cavities. This bacteria attaches to the teeth and forms a sticky biofilm called dental plaque, which provides an ideal environment for acid production and tooth decay. Therefore, the presence of Mutans streptococcus is closely associated with the development of dental caries.

Submit
11. What is the difference between primary teeth and permanent teeth?

Explanation

The primary teeth, also known as deciduous teeth or baby teeth, have a more bulbous crown compared to permanent teeth. The enamel of primary teeth is thinner and appears whiter. Additionally, the root of a primary molar can have multiple canals and ramifications. These differences distinguish primary teeth from permanent teeth.

Submit
12. The cause of early childhood carie :?

Explanation

The correct answer is Frequencies of demand, Sweet drink and Feeding at night. This answer suggests that the cause of early childhood caries (tooth decay) is the combination of frequent demand for food, consumption of sweet drinks, and feeding at night. These factors contribute to prolonged exposure of the teeth to sugars and acids, leading to tooth decay. Water is not mentioned as a cause in this answer.

Submit
13. The primary teeth should be cleaned?

Explanation

It is important to start cleaning a baby's primary teeth as soon as the first teeth erupt. This helps to establish good oral hygiene habits early on and prevents the buildup of plaque, which can lead to cavities and other dental issues. Regular cleaning should continue as more primary teeth come in, ensuring that the child's teeth remain healthy.

Submit
14. Which dental material has fluoride released?

Explanation

Glass ionomer cement is a dental material that releases fluoride. Fluoride is a mineral that helps to prevent tooth decay by strengthening the enamel and making it more resistant to acid attacks from bacteria and plaque. Glass ionomer cement contains fluoride as part of its composition, and when it comes into contact with saliva or water, it releases fluoride ions. This continuous release of fluoride helps to provide long-term protection against tooth decay.

Submit
15. After extraction of primary teeth the socket should :?

Explanation

After extraction of primary teeth, it is important for the socket to stop bleeding with gauge. This is necessary to prevent excessive bleeding and promote the healing process. The use of a gauge helps to apply pressure on the socket, which in turn helps to control and stop the bleeding. It is a common practice in dental procedures to use a gauge to manage bleeding and ensure proper healing.

Submit
16. Treating children is different from treating adult, the dentist should :?

Explanation

When treating children, it is important for the dentist to be friendly and understanding towards the child. Children may be scared or anxious about dental treatments, so being friendly helps to create a comfortable and positive environment. Additionally, understanding the intellectual development of the child is crucial as it helps the dentist to communicate effectively and adapt the treatment approach accordingly. Asking the parent for more information about the child can also provide valuable insights, but it is not as essential as being friendly and understanding. Frightening the child when they reject the treatment is not a suitable approach and goes against creating a positive experience for the child.

Submit
17. Which age of children that we can use fissure sealant?

Explanation

Fissure sealants are used to protect the grooves and pits on the chewing surfaces of teeth from decay. These grooves are most susceptible to cavities in children as they are difficult to clean properly. Age 6-9 is the correct answer because this is the age range when children's permanent molars and premolars have erupted, and fissure sealants are most commonly applied to these teeth. Applying sealants at this age helps to prevent decay and maintain good oral health in children.

Submit
18. Tooth coloration appeared on enamel opaque, white spot with diffusion striation to a brown mottling is result of ?

Explanation

Tooth coloration appearing as an opaque, white spot with diffusion striation to a brown mottling is a characteristic of dental fluorosis. Dental fluorosis is caused by excessive intake of fluoride during tooth development, leading to the formation of enamel that is discolored and has a mottled appearance. Amalogenesis imperfecta, dentinogenesis imperfecta, tetracycline staining, and hyperplasia do not specifically result in this type of tooth discoloration.

Submit
19. A child comes to see you for dental checkup. There are no cavity but you see some area of the demineralization. What will you do?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Dentist applies fl varnish." When a dentist notices areas of demineralization on a child's teeth, it indicates early signs of tooth decay. Applying fluoride varnish helps to strengthen the tooth enamel and prevent further damage. It is a common preventive measure used by dentists to protect teeth from cavities.

Submit
20. Why we do fissure sealant ?

Explanation

Fissure sealants are done to prevent caries (tooth decay) in children. The deep fissures in the teeth can easily trap food particles and bacteria, making them more prone to decay. Additionally, children may not brush their teeth well, which further increases the risk of caries. By applying fissure sealants, the deep fissures are sealed off, preventing food and bacteria from getting trapped and reducing the risk of tooth decay.

Submit
21. Which dental material is shrinkage after filling cavity: ?

Explanation

Composite is the correct answer because it is a dental material that undergoes shrinkage after filling a cavity. When composite is placed in a cavity and cured with a light, it undergoes a process called polymerization, where it hardens and shrinks. This shrinkage can lead to gaps between the composite and the tooth structure, which can compromise the integrity of the restoration and potentially lead to leakage and recurrent decay. To minimize the effects of shrinkage, techniques such as incremental layering and the use of a curing light with a longer curing time can be employed.

Submit
22. Fluoride varnish can:?

Explanation

Fluoride varnish is a dental treatment that helps prevent dental caries, also known as tooth decay. It achieves this by strengthening the enamel and making it more resistant to acid attacks from bacteria in the mouth. Additionally, fluoride varnish can also help prevent tooth sensitivity by forming a protective barrier on the teeth, reducing the exposure of sensitive nerve endings to external stimuli such as hot or cold temperatures. Therefore, the correct answer is that fluoride varnish can prevent dental caries and prevent tooth sensitivity.

Submit
23. The children come to meet you. How to communicate and get the successful treatment? 1.Be friendly to the child 2.Use the technique Tell, Show, Do 3.Show respect and treat them as an individual 4.Treat them as the adults 5.Make them fear and tell lies

Explanation

To successfully communicate and provide treatment to children, it is important to be friendly towards them, use the technique of Tell, Show, Do, and show respect by treating them as individuals. Being friendly helps to establish trust and a positive rapport with the child, making them more receptive to treatment. The Tell, Show, Do technique involves explaining the procedure to the child, demonstrating it, and then performing it. This helps to reduce anxiety and fear. Treating children as individuals and showing respect acknowledges their autonomy and promotes their cooperation.

Submit
24. Advice to the children about toothbrushing at night:?

Explanation

The correct answer is to brush the teeth with fluoride toothpaste, keep it in the mouth for one minute, spit out but do not rinse before going to bed. This is because fluoride toothpaste helps to strengthen the teeth and prevent tooth decay. Keeping the toothpaste in the mouth for one minute allows the fluoride to have maximum contact with the teeth. Spitting out the toothpaste without rinsing ensures that the fluoride continues to protect the teeth throughout the night.

Submit
25. The effective way of tooth brushing to the children:

Explanation

The most effective way of tooth brushing for children is to demonstrate the proper technique and then follow up with them until they are able to do it themselves. This ensures that they are learning the correct method and can maintain good oral hygiene. Educating the parents and the child is also important, but the key is to actively involve the children in the process and provide ongoing support and guidance. Demonstrating posters can be helpful, but it is not as effective as hands-on instruction and supervision.

Submit
26. The first molars of a child 7 years old has deep fissure with stain, the bitewing radiograph. Showing that the dentino enamol junction in normal which material should use :?

Explanation

The correct answer is fissure sealant. Fissure sealants are commonly used to protect the deep fissures and grooves on the chewing surfaces of molars in children. These sealants are applied to prevent food and bacteria from getting trapped in these areas, reducing the risk of tooth decay. In this case, the presence of deep fissures with stain suggests that the dentinoenamel junction is normal, indicating that a fissure sealant would be the appropriate material to use for preventive treatment.

Submit
27. Child behavior in relation to development two yeas-old?

Explanation

Dental treatment for a two-year-old should be accompanied by a parent. This is because at this age, children may not be able to fully cooperate or understand the dental procedures. Having a parent present can help comfort and support the child during the treatment. Additionally, parents can assist in holding the child still and ensuring their safety during the procedure.

Submit
28. Which cavities are not suitable for ART?

Explanation

Cavities that are very deep with the pulp exposed and causing pain are not suitable for Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART). This is because ART involves the removal of decayed tissue and the placement of a filling, which may not be effective or comfortable in cases where the pulp is exposed and the tooth is already painful. In such cases, other dental treatments may be necessary to address the underlying issues and alleviate the pain.

Submit
29. Who can benefit from ART?

Explanation

ART, or Art Therapy, can benefit a wide range of individuals. Young children can benefit from ART as it provides a creative outlet for self-expression and can help them process and communicate their emotions. Very anxious patients can also benefit from ART as it can help reduce anxiety and provide a calming and relaxing experience. People in nursing homes can benefit from ART as it can improve their cognitive abilities, enhance their social interactions, and provide a sense of purpose and enjoyment. Therefore, all three options, 1, 2, and 3, are correct.

Submit
30. After you apply fuji IX with ART what your advice you will tell patient?

Explanation

After applying fuji IX with ART, it is advised for the patient to not eat or drink for 1 hour. This is important because it allows the material to set and harden properly without being disturbed by food or liquids. Waiting for this duration ensures the longevity and effectiveness of the treatment.

Submit
31. Which tooth are we use to do sealant?

Explanation

Sealants are a protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of teeth to prevent cavities. The first molars of permanent teeth are typically the first permanent teeth to erupt in the mouth, usually around the age of 6. These teeth have deep grooves and pits that make them more susceptible to cavities. Therefore, it is recommended to use sealants on the first molars of permanent teeth to provide added protection against tooth decay.

Submit
32. Extraction in the mixed dentition?

Explanation

Extraction in the mixed dentition may be necessary for purely orthodontic reasons, such as crowding. This means that if there is not enough space in the mouth for all the teeth to properly align, extraction may be recommended to create more space and allow for proper alignment.

Submit
33. Serial extraction?

Explanation

Serial extraction is a procedure used in orthodontics to relieve crowding at an early stage. By removing certain primary teeth, space is created for permanent teeth to erupt into good alignment. This can help avoid the need for later appliance therapy, such as braces or other orthodontic treatments. Therefore, the correct answer is 1, 2, and 3, as all three statements explain the benefits of serial extraction.

Submit
34. Before doing local anesthesia what should you say to the child?

Explanation

Before doing local anesthesia, it is important to prepare the child for what they will experience. Saying "Put the tooth asleep and Feel pain like mosquito bite" is a good way to explain the process to the child. It informs them that their tooth will be numbed, so they won't feel any pain during the procedure, but they might feel a slight sensation similar to a mosquito bite. This explanation helps to alleviate any fears or concerns the child may have about the anesthesia.

Submit
35. Tooth that erupt within 30 days of birth are called:?

Explanation

Neonatal teeth are the correct answer because they are the teeth that emerge within the first 30 days after birth. These teeth can appear in the oral cavity shortly after birth or during the first month, and they are relatively rare. Natal teeth, on the other hand, are the teeth that are present at birth, and primary teeth are the set of teeth that replace the neonatal teeth. Prenatal teeth do not exist as teeth cannot form before birth.

Submit
36. Dental carie progresses when the demineralization is greater than remineralization. What is the level of PH dental carie?

Explanation

Dental caries, also known as tooth decay, occurs when the demineralization (loss of minerals) of the tooth enamel is greater than remineralization (gain of minerals). The pH level of dental caries is 5.5. This acidic pH level is caused by the bacteria in the mouth that produce acids when they break down sugars and food particles. The acidic environment promotes the demineralization of the tooth enamel, leading to the development of dental caries.

Submit
37. Which cavities are suitable for ART ?

Explanation

The answer is correct because all three statements mention the conditions under which ART (Atraumatic Restorative Treatment) is suitable for cavities. According to the statements, cavities that are not deep, cavities in dental clinics without electricity, and cavities that do not have enough instruments are all suitable for ART. Therefore, Answer 1, 2, and 3 are correct.

Submit
38. The answer below is the management of children?

Explanation

The answer "Make friend first with children and do the simple one" is the correct answer because it suggests that building a friendly and trusting relationship with children is important in the management of children in a dental office. By making friends with the children, the dental staff can create a comfortable and relaxed environment for the children, which can help alleviate their fears and anxieties. Additionally, by starting with simple procedures, the children can gradually become more comfortable and familiar with the dental office, making future visits easier.

Submit
39. Which tooth are not sealant?

Explanation

The correct answer is "The first molars of permanent teeth big cavities with pulp exposed." This answer states that the first molars of permanent teeth have big cavities with the pulp exposed. This means that these teeth are not suitable for sealant application because sealants are used to prevent cavities and protect the tooth enamel.

Submit
40. The first teeth affected to Early Childhood Caries:?

Explanation

Early Childhood Caries refers to tooth decay that occurs in young children, typically between the ages of 1 and 5. The primary upper incisors are the first teeth to erupt in the mouth, making them more susceptible to decay. These teeth are also more exposed to bacteria and food particles, as they are located at the front of the mouth and are used for biting and cutting food. Therefore, it is not surprising that the primary upper incisors are the first teeth to be affected by Early Childhood Caries.

Submit
41. The ideal restoration of primary teeth after pulp therapy:?

Explanation

The ideal restoration of primary teeth after pulp therapy is a stainless steel crown. This is because stainless steel crowns provide excellent durability and longevity in primary teeth, which are prone to heavy wear and tear. They also provide optimal protection and support to the remaining tooth structure, preventing any further damage or decay. Additionally, stainless steel crowns are easy to place and require minimal tooth preparation, making them a preferred choice for restoring primary teeth after pulp therapy.

Submit
42. If a root tip of primary tooth fractured during extraction it is important to:?

Explanation

Leaving the fractured root tip in situ is the correct answer because primary teeth have shallow roots and are eventually shed naturally. Removing the root tip may cause unnecessary trauma and damage to the surrounding tissues. Additionally, removing it and performing curettage may also lead to further complications. Leaving the fractured root tip in place and allowing it to naturally shed is the most appropriate course of action in this situation.

Submit
43. The common useful material filling in children?

Explanation

Glass ionomer cement is a common and useful material for filling in children. It is a type of dental cement that is made of a mixture of glass powder and an organic acid. It is used for various dental applications, including filling cavities in primary teeth. Glass ionomer cement has several advantages in pediatric dentistry, such as its ability to release fluoride, which helps prevent tooth decay, and its ability to bond to both enamel and dentin. Additionally, it has a tooth-colored appearance, making it aesthetically pleasing for children.

Submit
44. Why we do ART ?

Explanation

The reason we do ART (Atraumatic Restorative Treatment) is mainly because it is suitable for treating occlusal caries that are not deep. This means that it is a suitable treatment option for cavities that are not too severe or extensive. Additionally, ART is a cost-effective option as it does not require expensive materials. The materials used in ART are also easily accessible, making it convenient for dental practitioners to perform the treatment. Lastly, ART is considered a good material for filling as it provides a durable and long-lasting restoration for the tooth.

Submit
45. Eruption of primary lateral incisor begins:?

Explanation

The eruption of primary lateral incisors typically begins between 7 and 10 months of age. This is a normal developmental milestone in infants where the teeth start to emerge from the gums. The timing can vary slightly from child to child, but on average, the primary lateral incisors will start to appear during this time period.

Submit
46. Bottle feeding should be changed to cup:?

Explanation

Bottle feeding should be changed to cup after 1 year of age because by this age, most children have developed the necessary oral motor skills to drink from a cup. Additionally, prolonged bottle feeding can lead to dental issues such as tooth decay and malformation of the teeth and jaw. Introducing a cup at this age helps promote independence and healthy oral development.

Submit
47. We can do fissure sealant on ?

Explanation

Fissure sealants are a preventive dental treatment that involves applying a protective coating to the chewing surfaces of teeth to prevent cavities. The correct answer states that fissure sealants can be done on the first molars of permanent teeth that are healthy. This means that if the first molars of permanent teeth do not have any existing cavities or decay, they can still benefit from fissure sealants to protect them from future cavities.

Submit
48. The most durable of dental material filling is:?

Explanation

Amalgam is the most durable dental material filling. It is a mixture of metals, including silver, tin, copper, and mercury. Amalgam fillings have been used for many years and have a long track record of durability and strength. They are resistant to wear and can withstand the forces of chewing and grinding. Additionally, amalgam fillings are less likely to fracture or break compared to other materials like composite or glass ionomer.

Submit
49. The indication for serial extraction are?

Explanation

The indication for serial extraction includes a patient aged about 9 years old, significant incisor crowding, and all permanent teeth present. Serial extraction is a treatment approach in orthodontics where primary teeth are selectively removed to create space for the eruption of permanent teeth. This is typically done in cases where there is severe crowding and the patient is still growing. By removing certain primary teeth, the orthodontist can guide the eruption of permanent teeth into a more favorable position, resulting in improved alignment and occlusion.

Submit
50. Management of enamel dentine fracture of permanent teeth:?

Explanation

Filling with indirect pulp capping is the correct answer because it is a conservative treatment option for managing enamel dentine fractures of permanent teeth. This procedure involves removing the damaged enamel and dentin, and then placing a protective material over the exposed pulp to promote healing and prevent further damage. It is a less invasive approach compared to pulpotomy or pulpectomy, which involve removing the entire pulp tissue. Filling with direct pulp capping is not suitable for enamel dentine fractures as it involves placing a protective material directly on the exposed pulp, which may not provide enough protection for the damaged tooth.

Submit
51. The tooth discoloration appeared in the enamel white spot with striation, brown mottling is the result of :?

Explanation

Tooth discoloration appearing as white spots with striations and brown mottling is a characteristic sign of dental fluorosis. Dental fluorosis occurs due to excessive intake of fluoride during tooth development, typically from sources like drinking water or certain dental products. The excess fluoride disrupts the normal enamel formation, leading to the appearance of white spots and brown stains on the teeth. Amelogenesis imperfecta, dentinogenesis imperfecta, tetracycline staining, and hypoplasia can also cause tooth discoloration, but they present with different patterns and characteristics compared to dental fluorosis.

Submit
52. In children the most frequently missing permanent teeth are:?

Explanation

The most frequently missing permanent teeth in children are the maxillary lateral incisors. This means that these teeth are commonly absent or do not develop in some children. The first and second premolars and mandibular lateral incisors may also be missing, but the maxillary lateral incisors are the most commonly affected.

Submit
53. Enlargement of the tooth body on the expense of its root is called:?

Explanation

Taurodontism is the correct answer because it refers to the enlargement of the tooth body at the expense of its root. This condition is characterized by a vertically elongated pulp chamber and shortened roots, resulting in a rectangular-shaped tooth. It is commonly seen in individuals with certain genetic disorders or as a variation in tooth morphology. Gemination refers to the splitting of a single tooth into two separate crowns, Macrodontia is the condition of having abnormally large teeth, and Fusion is the joining together of two separate tooth buds to form a single tooth.

Submit
54. Radiographic diagnosis of an upper incisor consisting of two crown and one root with one root canal:?

Explanation

Gemination is a dental anomaly where a single tooth bud attempts to divide, resulting in a tooth with two crowns but a single root and root canal. In this case, the radiographic diagnosis suggests that the upper incisor has two crowns and one root canal, indicating gemination. Supernumerary teeth refer to the presence of extra teeth, concrescence refers to the fusion of two adjacent teeth, and fusion refers to the union of two separate tooth buds.

Submit
55. Which type temperament of children display a positive approach to the dentist:?

Explanation

Children with an easy temperament are more likely to display a positive approach to the dentist. This is because children with an easy temperament are generally adaptable, have a positive mood, and are able to regulate their emotions well. They are more likely to approach new experiences, such as visiting the dentist, with curiosity and openness, making the experience less stressful for both the child and the dentist.

Submit
56. A child 8 years old lost lower 6th molar. What is happening the teeth both side?

Explanation

When a child loses their lower 6th molar at 8 years old, it can lead to the distal shifting of the 2nd premolar and the mesial shifting of the 2nd molar. This means that the 2nd premolar tooth will move towards the back of the mouth, away from the missing molar, and the 2nd molar will move towards the front of the mouth, towards the space left by the missing molar. There will be no shifting of the 2nd premolar.

Submit
57. There are 12 permanent teeth and 12 primary teeth in the mouth of the child. How old is he/she?

Explanation

The answer 8 years and a half is correct because children typically start losing their primary teeth around the age of 6 and all their permanent teeth have usually come in by the age of 12. Therefore, if a child has a mixture of permanent and primary teeth, they are likely around 8 years old. The phrase "and a half" is added to indicate that the child is halfway between 8 and 9 years old.

Submit
58. By age 8 a child has a gross carie on 46. What do you manage for this tooth?

Explanation

Extraction is the correct answer because a gross carie refers to a severe decay or cavity in the tooth. In such cases, it is often necessary to remove the tooth completely to prevent further damage or infection. Extraction is a common treatment option for advanced tooth decay in children.

Submit
59. Before treating the child, the dentist should :?

Explanation

The dentist should use technique TSD before treating the child. This implies that the dentist should employ the TSD technique, which stands for Tell-Show-Do. This technique involves explaining the procedure to the child, demonstrating it using visual aids or models, and then performing the procedure. By using this technique, the dentist can help alleviate the child's anxiety and fear, making the treatment process smoother and more comfortable for both the child and the dentist.

Submit
60. The conversation is important to treat the child to whom, the dentist should focus more on:?

Explanation

In a conversation about treating a child, it is important for the dentist to focus more on the child. The child is the one receiving the treatment and their comfort and well-being should be the dentist's priority. While the parents, sibling, dental assistant, and child and parents may also be involved in the conversation, the dentist should primarily direct their attention towards the child to ensure they receive the appropriate care and attention.

Submit
61. The positive reinforament is :?

Explanation

Positive reinforcement is a technique used to encourage and strengthen desired behavior by providing a reward or incentive. Giving a reward to a child is an example of positive reinforcement. This can be in the form of tangible rewards such as toys or treats, or intangible rewards such as praise or recognition. By associating the desired behavior with a positive outcome, the child is more likely to repeat the behavior in the future.

Submit
62. ART we use when?

Explanation

The answer is 1,2 and 3 because ART (atraumatic restorative treatment) is a dental technique that is used when there is a lack of electricity (1), a lack of equipment (2), and mainly occlusal caries (3). ART is a minimally invasive approach to treating dental caries, and it can be performed in resource-limited settings where electricity and advanced equipment may not be available. Therefore, all three conditions mentioned in the question are valid reasons for using ART.

Submit
63. The primary canine usually erupt :?

Explanation

The primary canine usually erupts after the primary incisor and after the primary 1st molar. This means that the primary canines typically come in after the front teeth (incisors) and before the first molars in the primary dentition.

Submit
64. Tooth induced by tetracycline, becomes to :?

Explanation

Tetracycline is an antibiotic that can cause tooth discoloration when taken during tooth development. This discoloration typically appears as a gray color. Therefore, the correct answer is gray.

Submit
65. The concentration of Fluoride in the water of rural area?

Explanation

The concentration of fluoride in the water of a rural area is 1 ppm. This means that for every million parts of water, there is 1 part of fluoride. This level of fluoride concentration is considered safe for consumption and is within the acceptable range set by regulatory authorities.

Submit
66. Eruption of upper first premolar begins:?

Explanation

The eruption of the upper first premolar typically begins around 10-11 years of age. This is a normal developmental milestone in the growth of permanent teeth in children.

Submit
67. Preventive Resin Restoration (PRR) should be used the dental material as:?

Explanation

PRR should be used with composite + sealant as the dental material because it provides a combination of strength and esthetics. Composite resin is a tooth-colored material that can be used to restore the natural appearance of the tooth, while the sealant helps to prevent further decay by sealing off the tooth surface. This combination ensures both the functional and aesthetic aspects of the restoration are addressed. Glass ionomer cement, resin sealant, and intermediate restorative material (IRM) may have their own benefits, but they do not provide the same combination of strength and esthetics as composite + sealant.

Submit
68. The patient 10 years old complains eating on upper rishi primary 2nd molar. Clinical examination shows, the  canty occlusal. How do you think?

Explanation



The presence of pain while eating, mobility, and an uneven bite suggests that there may be trauma or excessive force exerted on the affected tooth during occlusion (biting). This condition is known as traumatic occlusion, where abnormal forces on the tooth can lead to pain, mobility, and occlusal (bite) irregularities.
Submit
69. Pulpotomy for primary teeth should be done on:?

Explanation

Pulpotomy for primary teeth should be done on carie lesions of the inner half of dentin (R4) because this indicates that the decay has not reached the pulp chamber yet. Performing a pulpotomy in this case involves removing the infected dentin and placing a medicament to preserve the vitality of the remaining pulp tissue. Carie lesions of the inner half of enamel (R2) and outer half of dentin (R3) may require less invasive treatments such as fillings or sealants. Hyperhemie pulp and chronic pulpitis are conditions that typically require more extensive treatments like root canal therapy.

Submit
70. Fluoride vanish should be wipe on caries lesion of primary teeth:?

Explanation

R1 is the correct answer because fluoride vanish is a topical fluoride treatment that is applied directly to the surface of the teeth. It is specifically used to treat caries lesions, which are areas of decay or damage on the teeth. By wiping the fluoride vanish onto the caries lesion of primary teeth, it can help to strengthen the enamel and prevent further decay. This treatment is commonly used in pediatric dentistry to protect and preserve the primary teeth.

Submit
71. The anterior tooth with guateot variation size and shape in:?

Explanation

The maxillary lateral incisor is the anterior tooth with the variation in size and shape known as guateot.

Submit
72. The effective communication with children requires:?

Explanation

Effective communication with children requires understanding their intellectual development. This means being aware of their cognitive abilities, language skills, and learning styles. By understanding their intellectual development, adults can tailor their communication to meet the child's needs and abilities, ensuring that the message is understood and meaningful to them. This understanding also helps in choosing appropriate language, examples, and activities to engage the child in a way that promotes effective communication.

Submit
73. Eruption of primary first molar begins:?

Explanation

The eruption of the primary first molar typically begins between 12 months and 16 months of age. This means that most children will start to see their first molar teeth coming in during this time period. It is important for parents to monitor their child's dental development and seek dental care if there are any concerns or delays in eruption.

Submit
74. A child has 12 primary teeth. How old is he/she?

Explanation

The correct answer is 12 - 16 months. This is because primary teeth, also known as baby teeth, typically start to erupt around 6 months of age and are usually fully developed by the age of 3. Since a child has 12 primary teeth, it can be inferred that they are between 12 and 16 months old.

Submit
75. What age the lower permanent canine will erupt?

Explanation

The lower permanent canine typically erupts between the ages of 9 to 11 years old. This is a common age range for the eruption of the lower permanent canines in most individuals.

Submit
76. Clinical signs of gingivitis in children :?

Explanation

The clinical signs of gingivitis in children include plaque and inflamed gingiva. Plaque is a sticky film that forms on the teeth and contains bacteria. When plaque is not properly removed through brushing and flossing, it can irritate the gums and cause inflammation. Inflamed gingiva refers to red, swollen, and tender gums. These signs indicate that there is an ongoing inflammation in the gums, which is a characteristic feature of gingivitis.

Submit
77. The indication for serial extraction ?

Explanation

The indication for serial extraction is when pulpotomy or pulpectomy have failed and the first permanent molars are in good condition. Additionally, class I occlusion without a deep overbite is also an indication for serial extraction.

Submit
78. Absence of pulp chamber of primary maxillary incisor, caused by :?

Explanation

The absence of a pulp chamber in a primary maxillary incisor is most likely caused by trauma. Trauma to the tooth can lead to damage or death of the pulp tissue, resulting in the absence of a pulp chamber. Amelogenesis imperfecta, hypophosphatasia, ectodermal dysplasia, and hypoplasia are conditions that can affect the development or structure of the tooth, but they would not specifically cause the absence of a pulp chamber.

Submit
79. There are many ways of child behavior technique. What is the behavior shaping?

Explanation

Behavior shaping is a technique that involves starting with easy tasks and gradually progressing to more difficult ones. This approach allows children to build their skills and confidence gradually. By starting with simpler tasks, children are more likely to succeed and feel motivated to continue. As they become more comfortable and proficient, they can then move on to more challenging tasks. This method encourages gradual progress and helps children develop their abilities in a step-by-step manner.

Submit
80. Modeling is a technique :?

Explanation

The correct answer is "The dentist shows the model to the child." This answer is correct because the question asks for a technique, and modeling refers to the act of showing or demonstrating something to someone as an example or representation. In this case, the dentist is showing a model to the child, which could be a model of teeth or a dental procedure, to help the child understand or become familiar with what will happen during their treatment.

Submit
81. Fusion most commonly affects the following sites: ?

Explanation

Fusion most commonly affects the mandibular anterior region. This refers to the area in the lower jaw where the front teeth are located. Fusion is a dental anomaly where two teeth are joined together, resulting in a larger tooth with two separate root canals. This condition can cause issues with tooth eruption, alignment, and overall oral health.

Submit
82. The difference enamel of primary teeth and permanent teeth. The enamel of primary teeth is:?

Explanation

The enamel of primary teeth is more permeable and has a thinner depth compared to the enamel of permanent teeth. This means that substances can pass through the enamel more easily in primary teeth, and the enamel layer is thinner, making the teeth more vulnerable to damage and decay.

Submit
83. There are many ways of child management technique which one is limit setting?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Dentist should count 1 to 10 when the child is boring." This technique of counting can help distract the child and redirect their attention, making the dental visit more manageable. By counting, the dentist provides a structured and predictable environment, helping the child feel more secure and in control. Additionally, counting can serve as a time limit, encouraging the child to cooperate within a specific timeframe.

Submit

Submit
85. One tooth have cavity not deep and we want to fill that tooth but no electricity ?

Explanation

The best option for filling a tooth with a shallow cavity when there is no electricity is to use the ART (atraumatic restorative technique) method and fill it with Fuji IX. ART is a minimally invasive technique that involves removing the decayed part of the tooth using hand instruments and then restoring it with a suitable material, such as Fuji IX. This method is effective in providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing filling without the need for electricity or advanced equipment.

Submit
86. A child 8 years old has a large cavity on his primary teeth. How to manage this tooth:?

Explanation

A temporary filling is a suitable option for managing a large cavity in a primary tooth of an 8-year-old child. Primary teeth are eventually replaced by permanent teeth, and a temporary filling can help preserve the tooth until it naturally exfoliates. Extraction might be considered if the tooth is causing severe pain or infection, but it's generally preferred to maintain primary teeth as long as possible to guide the eruption of permanent teeth. Apexogenesis and apexification are procedures used to treat permanent teeth with damaged or undeveloped roots and are not relevant in this case. Medication might be necessary to address pain or infection, but it doesn't address the underlying cavity.

Submit
87. Complete root formation of upper central incisors :?

Explanation

The complete root formation of upper central incisors typically occurs between the ages of 9 to 10 years old. This is the stage when the roots of the teeth have fully developed, indicating that the teeth are fully matured and anchored in the jawbone.

Submit
88. One first molar have small cavities on the enamel ?

Explanation

Fissure sealants are a preventive dental treatment that involves applying a thin protective coating to the grooves and pits of the teeth, particularly the molars, to prevent the formation of cavities. Therefore, even if the first molar has small cavities on the enamel, it can still undergo fissure sealant treatment to protect the remaining healthy tooth structure and prevent further decay.

Submit
89. Related to the intellectual development which group of children that they start to be cooperated with the dentist:?

Explanation

Children typically start to cooperate with the dentist around the age of 4. At this age, they have developed a better understanding of instructions and are able to follow them. They are also more likely to have better control over their behavior and can sit still for longer periods of time, which is important during dental exams and procedures. Additionally, by the age of 4, children have usually developed better communication skills, allowing them to express their needs and concerns to the dentist.

Submit
90. Which patient should you use atraumatic restorative technique :?

Explanation

The atraumatic restorative technique is a minimally invasive approach to dental restorations that aims to preserve as much healthy tooth structure as possible. It is particularly suitable for patients who may have difficulty tolerating traditional restorative techniques, such as old patients and anxious children. These patients may have limited ability to cooperate or may be more sensitive to pain and discomfort. Using the atraumatic restorative technique can help alleviate their anxiety and ensure a more comfortable and successful treatment outcome.

Submit
91. A girl 9 years old had accident on tooth 21 fractured crown with pulp exposed. What treatment do you choose?

Explanation

Apexogenesis is the preferred treatment option for a 9-year-old girl with a fractured crown and exposed pulp on tooth 21. This treatment allows for the continuation of root development and encourages the formation of a healthy apex. It involves removing the infected pulp tissue and placing a medicament to stimulate the growth of the root. This approach is suitable for young patients with open apices, as it promotes natural healing and avoids the need for more invasive procedures such as pulpotomy or pulpectomy. Direct pulp capping is not suitable in this case as the pulp is already exposed. Apexification is typically used when the apex is already closed and root development has ceased.

Submit
92. Modeling technique: ?

Explanation

The correct answer is demonstrating to the anxious child what the dentist is doing to a well-behaved child. This modeling technique helps alleviate the child's anxiety by showing them that another child is able to handle the dental procedure without any issues. By witnessing this demonstration, the anxious child may feel more comfortable and less fearful about their own dental treatment.

Submit
93. Pediatric dentistry is a dental professional that is focusing specify on: ?

Explanation

Pediatric dentistry focuses specifically on preventive treatment for children's dental health. This means that the dental professional aims to prevent dental problems from occurring in the first place, rather than just treating them after they arise. This can include regular check-ups, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and education on proper oral hygiene practices. By emphasizing preventive measures, pediatric dentistry aims to promote good oral health habits and reduce the need for more extensive and invasive treatments in the future.

Submit
94. How can you detect the early earie in the examination?

Explanation

The early stage of tooth decay, also known as dental caries, can be detected by observing the presence of a white spot on the enamel. This white spot indicates the demineralization of the enamel, which is the outer protective layer of the tooth. Additionally, the area of demineralized enamel can also be an indication of early tooth decay. These signs can help in identifying and diagnosing dental caries at an early stage, allowing for timely intervention and prevention of further damage to the tooth.

Submit
95. Fusion is a dental anomaly that effects the shape of the tooth and is characterized by:?

Explanation

Fusion is a dental anomaly that occurs when two separate tooth germs fuse together during development, resulting in a larger tooth with an altered shape. This fusion causes the affected tooth to have a single root and root canal instead of the normal two. It is important to note that fusion does not necessarily involve the dentin, which is the hard tissue that forms the bulk of the tooth. Additionally, fusion can lead to a reduction in the overall number of teeth in the mouth.

Submit
96. The primary upper central incisor extruded of a child 2 years old must be :?

Explanation

The primary upper central incisor extruded of a child 2 years old must be extracted because extrusion refers to when a tooth is pushed out of its socket. In this case, the tooth has been pushed out of its normal position, which can cause problems with alignment and bite. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the tooth to prevent further complications and to allow for proper growth and development of the permanent teeth.

Submit
97. Which one of these is a suitable restraint technique? 

Explanation

The correct answer is "Focus the child to carry out the treatment." This technique involves directing the child's attention and concentration towards the treatment or procedure that needs to be carried out. It may involve using distractions, engaging the child in conversation, or providing clear instructions to keep the child focused and cooperative during the treatment.

Submit
98. The treatment of subluxation of upper primary incisors: 1. Soft diet 2. Splinting 3. Medication 4.No treatment needed 5. Monitoring the color change

Explanation

Splinting: Splinting may be done to stabilize the affected teeth. This involves attaching the loose or subluxated tooth to neighboring teeth to prevent further movement.





No treatment needed: In some cases, if the subluxation is minor and there is no significant displacement of the tooth, no active treatment may be necessary. The tooth may heal and stabilize on its own.





Monitoring the color change: Monitoring the color change of the affected tooth is essential. Changes in tooth color can indicate damage to the pulp (the inner part of the tooth). If the tooth becomes discolored, further treatment may be required.

Submit
99. At what age should you palpate for the presence of the upper permanent canine?

Explanation

At the age of 8-9 years old, one should palpate for the presence of the upper permanent canine. This is because the eruption of the permanent canines usually occurs around this age. By palpating, one can feel for the presence of the permanent canine teeth, which helps in assessing the dental development and growth of a child.
