1. Calcium
2. Bilirubin

Periodontics
Answer: 3
ANUG patients will have higher levels of free cortisol in urine.
Which of the following flap technique does not eliminate pocket depth and hence cannot increase the width of keratinised gingiva
1) Modified Widman flap
2) Undisplaced flap
3) Apically displaced flap
4) All of the above
Periodontics
Answer: 1
The Modified Widman flap is designed for access to the root surface for debridement without significantly altering the pocket depth or increasing the width of keratinized gingiva. Other techniques, such as apically displaced flaps, aim to modify the gingival architecture.
ANUG is caused by
1. Borrelia vincenti and Fusobacterium
2. Actinomycetam comitans
3. Actinomyces naeslundii
4. Streptococcus mutans
ANUG is caused by Borrelia vincenti and Fusobacterium.
Contraindication for distal wedge removal for periodontal surgery in mandibular molar area is
1. Distal root flutings
2. Presence of deep pockets
3. Insufficient space between distal molar & ascending ramus
4. A soft retromolar pad
Periodontics
Answer: 3
A contraindication for distal wedge removal for periodontal surgery in the mandibular molar area is insufficient space between the distal molar and ascending ramus.
At 6-years-age interdental papillary necrosis, ulceration, pain, bleeding and pseudomembrane formation is seen in
1. Herpetic gingivostomatitis
2. ANUG
3. Erythema multiforme
4. Streptococcal gingivostomatitis
Periodontics
Answer: 2
At 6 years of age, interdental papillary necrosis, ulceration, pain, bleeding, and pseudomembrane formation is seen in ANUG.
A hemiseptum is
1. one-wall defect
2. two-wall defect
3. three-wall defect
4. angular defect
Periodontics
Answer: 1
A hemiseptum refers to a periodontal defect with only one wall remaining, often
seen in sites of periodontal bone loss.
Subgingival curettage may result in all of of the following, except
1. root exposure
2. increased height of the gingiva
3. elimination of pockets
4. root sensitivity
Periodontics
Answer: 2
Subgingival curettage typically involves the removal of diseased tissue and can lead to root exposure and increased sensitivity. It may also help eliminate periodontal pockets. However, it does not result in an increased height of the gingiva; rather, it may lead to a reduction in gingival height due to tissue removal.
During activation of a scaling instrument, the facial surface of the blade and tooth surface should form an angle of
1. > 15 but < 45
2. > 30 but < 60
3. > 45 but < 90
4. > 90 but < 180
Periodontics
Answer: 3
During activation of a scaling instrument, the facial surface of the blade and tooth surface should form an angle of > 45 but < 90 degrees.
