The Restorative Art Quiz! Trivia

Acquired furrows that radiate from the lateral corner of the eye onto the side of the face are known as Optical Facial Sulci or Crows Feet. These lines are commonly associated with aging and are caused by the repetitive contraction of the muscles around the eyes, as well as the loss of elasticity in the skin. They are called Crows Feet due to their resemblance to the footprints of a crow.

The normal direction of growth of the eyebrow is obliquely upward and outward. This means that the eyebrows grow at an angle, starting from the inner corner of the eye and sloping upwards and outwards towards the outer corner of the eye. This direction of growth helps to frame the eyes and enhance facial expressions.

The eye's natural repose refers to the relaxed state of the eye when it is not actively focusing on anything. In this state, the eyelids come into contact with each other, or abut, creating a closed position. Therefore, the correct answer is "Abut."

Starch would not convert restorative wax to a softer state. Starch is a carbohydrate derived from plants and is commonly used as a thickening agent. It does not have any properties that would cause it to soften or melt wax. Therefore, it would not be effective in converting restorative wax to a softer state.

In the case of decapitation, the head and torso are embalmed separately. This is because the head and torso are two separate entities after decapitation, and embalming them separately ensures that each part is properly preserved. Embalming involves the process of preserving the body by disinfecting, preserving, and restoring it. Embalming the head and torso separately allows for a more thorough and effective preservation process, ensuring that both parts are properly embalmed and preserved for funeral or burial purposes.

The widest part of the neck is measured between the sternocleidomastoid muscles. These muscles are located on either side of the neck and are responsible for various movements of the head and neck. Measuring the width between these muscles can provide an indication of the overall width of the neck. The other options listed, such as the coronoid processes, digastric muscles, and platysma muscle, are not directly related to the width of the neck.

Lemon juice or a 10% solution of Sodium Thiosulfate can be used to remove stains caused by nicotine. Nicotine stains can often be found on surfaces such as walls or fingers due to smoking. Lemon juice and Sodium Thiosulfate have properties that help break down and remove the nicotine stains effectively.

A small pellet of colored wax can be used to fill the triangular opening at the inner corner of the eyelids caused by a dehydrated inner canthus. This can help improve the appearance of the eyelids when they are closed.

The paired structures that exhibit the most difference in form and position are the ears. Ears can vary greatly in shape, size, and position on the head among different individuals. They can be small or large, protruding or close to the head, and have various shapes such as round, pointed, or folded. In contrast, eyes, cheeks, and eyebrows tend to have a more consistent form and position among individuals.

The correct answer is the tail. The supercilium is the area of hair located above the eye, commonly known as the eyebrow. The thinnest density of hair in the supercilium is found in the tail, which refers to the outer end or tip of the eyebrow. This means that the hair in this specific area is sparser compared to the rest of the supercilium.

The distance from the eyebrow to the base of the chin is equal to the distance from the base of the nose. This means that if you measure the distance from the eyebrow to the base of the chin, it will be the same as the distance from the base of the nose. Therefore, the correct answer is "The Base of the Nose."

The Philtrum is directly superior to the Medial Lobe of the integumentary lip. The Philtrum is the vertical groove located between the nose and the upper lip. It is a prominent feature on the face and is considered to be superior to the Medial Lobe of the lip.

The correct answer is G: D and F Only. The Procerus muscle is located near the nose and is responsible for wrinkling the skin between the eyebrows. The Levator Labii Superioris Alaeque Nasi muscle is also near the nose and is involved in lifting the upper lip and flaring the nostrils. The other options listed are not muscles of or near the nose.

The external auditory meatus, also known as the ear canal, is the passage that leads from the outer ear to the middle ear. It is the "KEYSTONE" in the replacement of the pinna because it is the main entrance for sound waves to enter the ear and reach the eardrum. The pinna, or outer ear, collects sound waves and directs them into the ear canal. Therefore, the knowledge of the external auditory meatus is essential in understanding the anatomy and function of the ear.

The correct answer is The Medial Lobe. The term "medial" refers to the middle or central part of something. In this context, the "medial lobe" refers to the prominence on the midline of the superior mucous membrane. This suggests that there is a specific part or area in the middle of the mucous membrane that is more prominent or noticeable than other parts.

Both Zygomatic and Maxilla are "Paired" bones and Occiput (occipital) is a cranial bone, but not a facial bone.

Hair restorations to the sideburns of a male cadaver should be applied so that each application overlaps the preceding one. This ensures a more natural and seamless appearance, as the overlapping of the hair creates a fuller and denser look. By applying the hair in this manner, it mimics the growth pattern of natural hair and helps to achieve a more realistic result.

Oval is the MOST Common Head Type

Blisters and pustules are lanced (opened) prior to arterial embalming. This is because lancing them allows for the release of any fluid or pus that may be present, reducing the risk of contamination during the embalming process. By opening the blisters and pustules beforehand, the embalmer can ensure a more thorough and effective embalming procedure.

Desiccation refers to the complete removal or loss of moisture from tissues. This process can occur naturally or artificially through methods such as drying or dehydration. Emaciation refers to extreme thinness or wasting away of the body, while putrefaction is the decomposition of organic matter. Dehydration, on the other hand, is the loss of water from the body. Therefore, the correct answer for the complete exhaustion of moisture from tissues is desiccation.

Excision Prior to arterial embalming ONLY when distribution is potentially affected. (See pg. 262-263 Mayer's Restorative )

Crepe hair is a type of theatrical hair that is commonly made from wool. It is used in the entertainment industry to create realistic-looking facial hair, such as beards and mustaches, for theatrical performances and costumes. The texture and appearance of crepe hair closely resemble natural human hair, making it an ideal choice for creating convincing hairpieces. Camel hair, cilia, and donor hair are not typically used in the production of crepe hair, making them incorrect options.

Monochromatic colors are variations of one color (hue) : such as tints, tones and shades od one hue.
Achromatic: is to be without color!

Cold water and vinegar both retard the setting effects of Plaster of Paris. Cold water slows down the chemical reaction that causes the plaster to harden, while vinegar, being acidic, also slows down the reaction. Therefore, options A and C are the correct choices.

The "Horseshoe" shaped portion of the largest single facial bone is known as the body.

Both Dr. Lou, Ralph and I did the research on disproving this Compend Question: Pg 327 #450. The Fossa exists in both bones!

Undercutting an excision helps to hold the wax reconstruction in place. By creating a groove or undercut along the edges of the excision, the wax can be securely anchored, preventing it from shifting or falling out. This technique is commonly used in prosthetic or reconstructive procedures to ensure the stability and longevity of the wax reconstruction.

Sodium Hypochloride is not a dehydrating agent because it is actually a disinfectant and bleaching agent. Dehydrating agents are substances that remove water or moisture from a material, while sodium hypochloride does not have this property. Phenol, hardening compound, and plaster of Paris are all examples of dehydrating agents commonly used in various applications such as preserving tissues, drying out wet surfaces, and setting or hardening materials.

Ivory bar soap is effective at removing stains caused by most mortuary cosmetics. It contains gentle yet powerful cleaning agents that can break down and remove stains from clothing. The soap's formula is designed to be safe for use on various fabrics, making it a suitable choice for treating stains on clothing.
