    What is the symptom of reversible pulpitis?

    • A.

      Sharp pain for short duration cause by stimulus

    • B.

      Sharp pain for an hour cause by stimulus

    • C.

      Sharp pain for 2 hours cause by stimulus

    • D.

      Sharp pain for 3 hours cause by stimulus

    Correct Answer
    A. Sharp pain for short duration cause by stimulus
    Explanation
    The symptom of reversible pulpitis is sharp pain for a short duration caused by a stimulus. This means that when the tooth is exposed to a trigger such as hot or cold temperature, sweet or sour foods, or biting pressure, the individual experiences a brief but intense pain. The pain subsides quickly once the stimulus is removed. This symptom is characteristic of reversible pulpitis, which is an inflammation of the dental pulp that can be reversed with appropriate treatment.

    • B.

      Dental abscess

    • C.

      Irreversible pulpitis

    • D.

      Periodontitis

    Correct Answer
    A. Reversible pulpitis
    Explanation
    Based on the given information, the patient is experiencing pain while eating for a few minutes, which suggests that the condition is not severe or chronic. Reversible pulpitis refers to inflammation of the dental pulp that can be resolved with appropriate treatment. This condition is characterized by temporary pain or sensitivity to hot or cold stimuli. Therefore, considering the patient's age and the temporary nature of the pain, reversible pulpitis is the most likely diagnosis in this case.

    What is the symptoms of irreversible pulpitis?

    • A.

      Pain more severe induced by hot, cold, sweet

    • B.

      Sharp pain for short duration

    • C.

      Pain to percussion

    • D.

      Pain when eating food

    Correct Answer
    A. Pain more severe induced by hot, cold, sweet
    Explanation
    The symptoms of irreversible pulpitis include pain that is more severe when triggered by hot, cold, or sweet stimuli. This indicates that the pulp tissue inside the tooth is inflamed and damaged, leading to heightened sensitivity to temperature and certain foods. The other symptoms mentioned, such as sharp pain for a short duration, pain to percussion (tapping on the tooth), and pain when eating, may also be present in irreversible pulpitis, but the most prominent symptom is the increased severity of pain when exposed to hot, cold, or sweet substances.

    • A.

      Irreversible pulpitis

    • B.

      Reversible pulpitis

    • C.

      Periodontitis

    • D.

      Pulp necrosis

    Correct Answer
    A. Irreversible pulpitis
    Explanation
    Based on the given information, the patient is experiencing severe and continuous pain in tooth 75, which also has a big hole. These symptoms suggest that the pulp (the innermost part of the tooth) is inflamed and damaged beyond repair. This condition is known as irreversible pulpitis, which is characterized by intense and persistent pain. Reversible pulpitis refers to temporary inflammation of the pulp that can be resolved with proper treatment. Periodontitis involves inflammation and infection of the surrounding tissues of the tooth, while pulp necrosis refers to the death of the pulp tissue. However, the symptoms described in the question point towards irreversible pulpitis as the most likely diagnosis.

    The patient 5 years old come to the dental clinic with the complain of pain on tooth 75 and the pain is more severe and continue for a few minutes check the tooth have big hole. What treatment of choice would you choose?

    • A.

      Pulpectomy

    • B.

      Pulp capping

    • C.

      Pulpotomy

    • D.

      Extraction

    Correct Answer
    A. Pulpectomy
    Explanation
    Based on the given information, the patient is experiencing severe pain and has a big hole in tooth 75. A pulpectomy is the most appropriate treatment choice in this case. A pulpectomy involves the complete removal of the infected pulp tissue from the tooth's root canal and filling it with a suitable material. This treatment is usually performed when the tooth is severely decayed or infected, as in this case. Pulp capping and pulpotomy are not suitable because they involve preserving the pulp tissue, which is not possible in this situation. Extraction may be considered if the tooth cannot be saved through other means, but it is not the first choice in this case.

    • C.

      Irreversible pulpitis

    • D.

      Gingivitis

    Correct Answer
    A. Acute apical periodontitis
    Explanation
    Based on the given symptoms, the patient is experiencing severe, throbbing, and continuous pain that is tender to percussion, chewing, and palpation. The pain is easily localized and may worsen at night. These symptoms are indicative of acute apical periodontitis, which is an inflammation and infection of the tissues surrounding the tooth's root. Reversible pulpitis refers to temporary inflammation of the dental pulp, while irreversible pulpitis refers to irreversible damage to the dental pulp. Gingivitis refers to inflammation of the gums, which does not match the given symptoms. Therefore, the correct diagnosis for this condition is acute apical periodontitis.

      Stomatitis

    Correct Answer
    A. Gingivitis
    Explanation
    Based on the given symptoms of swelling, redness, bleeding, and plaque buildup around the tooth, the most likely diagnosis is gingivitis. Gingivitis is characterized by inflammation of the gums, which can be caused by poor oral hygiene leading to plaque accumulation. The absence of pain suggests that it is an early stage of gum disease rather than a dental abscess or periodontitis. Stomatitis, on the other hand, refers to inflammation of the entire mouth and is not specific to the gums.

      Dental traumatic

    • B.

      Poor oral hygiene

    • C.

      Restoration overhangs

    • D.

      Orthodontic appliances

    Correct Answer
    A. Dental traumatic
    Explanation
    Dental trauma refers to injuries to the teeth and surrounding structures caused by external forces. While dental trauma can lead to various dental problems, it is not directly linked to gingivitis. Gingivitis is primarily caused by poor oral hygiene, restoration overhangs, and orthodontic appliances, which can all contribute to the buildup of plaque and bacteria in the gums. Dental trauma, on the other hand, may result in tooth fractures, dislodgement, or avulsion, but it does not directly cause inflammation of the gums.

    Correct Answer
    A. Cyclosporin
    Explanation
    Cyclosporin is a drug that can cause gingival enlargement. This side effect is known as drug-induced gingival overgrowth, and it occurs due to an abnormal response of the gum tissues to the drug. Cyclosporin is an immunosuppressant medication commonly used in organ transplant recipients to prevent rejection. It is believed to cause gingival enlargement by stimulating the growth of fibroblasts and collagen in the gums. This can lead to an overgrowth of gum tissue, causing the gums to become swollen, red, and prone to bleeding. Regular dental care and good oral hygiene are important for individuals taking cyclosporin to minimize the risk of gingival enlargement.

    • C.

      Alpha chymotrypsin

    • D.

      Biotin

    Correct Answer
    A. Nifedipine
    Explanation
    Nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker commonly used to treat high blood pressure and angina. One of the side effects of nifedipine is gingival enlargement, which is the abnormal overgrowth of gum tissue. This side effect occurs due to the drug's ability to increase the production of connective tissue in the gums, leading to their enlargement. Therefore, nifedipine can cause gingival enlargement. Atropine, alpha chymotrypsin, and biotin do not have this side effect.

    • D.

      Dentinogenesis Imperfecta

    Correct Answer
    A. Amelogenesis Imperfecta
    Explanation
    Based on the description provided, the patient's complaint of bad color and soft enamel suggests a condition that affects the development of tooth enamel. Amelogenesis Imperfecta is a genetic disorder that causes abnormal enamel formation, resulting in discolored and weak teeth. Enamel hypoplasia refers to underdevelopment of enamel, but it does not explain the color changes mentioned. Fluorosis is caused by excessive fluoride intake and leads to enamel discoloration, but it does not mention soft enamel. Dentinogenesis Imperfecta affects the dentin layer, not the enamel. Therefore, Amelogenesis Imperfecta is the most likely diagnosis.

      Making teeth prone to rapid wear

    Correct Answer
    A. All of above
    Explanation
    Dentinogenesis Imperfecta is a genetic disorder that affects the development of tooth dentin, leading to various dental problems. It can cause teeth to have a discolored appearance, with shades of blue, grey, brown, or yellow. Additionally, the condition can make teeth translucent, giving them a glass-like appearance. Due to the abnormal development of dentin, the teeth become weak and prone to rapid wear, making them more susceptible to damage and decay. Therefore, all of the mentioned options are correct outcomes of Dentinogenesis Imperfecta.

    • A.

      Dentinogenesis Imperfecta

    • B.

      Amelogenesis Imperfecta

    • C.

      Dentin dysplasia

    • D.

      Dentin hypocalcification

    Correct Answer
    A. Dentinogenesis Imperfecta
    Explanation
    Dentinogenesis Imperfecta is a hereditary disorder that affects the development of dentin, the hard tissue that makes up the majority of a tooth. In this condition, the root canal and pulp chamber of the tooth are prematurely obliterated, meaning they are filled or closed off before they should be. This can lead to weakened teeth that are more prone to fractures and dental problems. Dentinogenesis Imperfecta is often characterized by discolored, translucent teeth that are prone to wear and tear.

      Overdose of fluoride

    • D.

      Dental caries

    Correct Answer
    A. Genetic disorder
    Explanation
    Dentin dysplasia is caused by a genetic disorder. This means that it is a condition that is inherited from one or both parents. It is not caused by trauma, an overdose of fluoride, or dental caries. Genetic disorders are caused by changes or mutations in genes, which can affect the development and function of various body systems. In the case of dentin dysplasia, there is a defect in the development of dentin, which is the hard tissue that makes up the majority of a tooth.

  • 48. 

    In the dentin dysplasia premature tooth loss may occur because of?

    • A.

      Short root

    • B.

      Gingivitis

    • C.

      Periodontitis

    • D.

      Chronic pulpitis

    Correct Answer
    A. Short root
    Explanation
    In dentin dysplasia, premature tooth loss may occur due to short root. Dentin dysplasia is a genetic disorder that affects the development of dentin, the hard tissue that forms the majority of the tooth structure. Short root is a common characteristic of dentin dysplasia, where the roots of the teeth are underdeveloped and shorter than normal. This can lead to instability and weakness in the teeth, making them more prone to premature loss.
