An Ellis Class IV crown fracture
1. does not involve the pulp
2. is so extensive that the entire crown has been lost
3. involves only the enamel
4. may expose the pulp
Pedodontics
Answer: 2
An Ellis Class IV crown fracture is characterized by the loss of a significant portion of the crown, often such that the pulp may be exposed. This severe type of fracture requires immediate attention to prevent further damage to the tooth
Ellis Class IV fractures are the most severe form of crown fractures. They extend below the gingival margin and involve the enamel, dentin, and often the pulp. The pulp may be exposed, making it a dental emergency.
Major disadvantage of temporary intracoronal splinting is
1. Not esthetic
2. Less rigid

The principal advantage of functional type of space maintainer is
1) It is removable
2) Replaces the tooth/teeth
3) Prevents mescal drift of the permanent molar
4) Prevents supraeruption of the teeth of the opposing arch
Pedodontics
Answer: 4
Functional space maintainers are typically made to be removable for ease of cleaning and adjustment, which is essential for the patient's oral hygiene and the overall success of the treatment. While they also replace the tooth/teeth and prevent mesial drift and supraeruption of teeth from the opposing arch, the key advantage is their ability to maintain function and promote proper eruption of the permanent teeth.
