The coronoid process
1. Limits the extension of maxillary posterior teeth setting
2. Limits the thickness of the distobuccal flange of the upper complete denture
3. Limits the thickness of the ditobuccal flange of the lower complete denture
4. Determines PPS
Prosthodontics
Answer: 2
The coronoid process limits the thickness of the distobuccal flange of the upper complete denture.
The massetric notch in distobuccal corners of the mandibular denture is due to
1. Action of buccinator on masseter
2. Action of masseter on buccinator
3. Action of palatoglossus on buccinator
4. Action of superior constrictor on masseter
Prosthodontics
Answer: 2
The massetric notch in the distobuccal corners of the mandibular denture is due to the action of masseter on buccinator.
In the sequencing of a treatment plan for a conventional immediate complete
denture, the dentures are fabricated
1. before any teeth are extracted
2. immediately after the extraction of all posterior teeth
3. 6-8 weeks after the extraction of posterior teeth
4. after extraction of all the teeth
Prosthodontics
Answer: 4
Explanation: Immediate complete dentures are fabricated after the extraction
of all the teeth. They are inserted into the patient's mouth immediately after
the extraction to provide immediate tooth replacement and allow for healing
without a gap in the patient's smile.
All of the following landmarks are included while making a postdam for maxillary arch except
1. Pterygomaxillary notch
2. Hamular process
3. Fovea palatina
4. Vibrating line
Prosthodontics
Answer: 2
All of the following landmarks are included while making a postdam for maxillary arch except hamular process.
As lower denture settles down due to ridge resorption, the effect is a
1. Prominent chin
2. Receded chin
3. Deepening of mentolabial sulcus
4. Deepening of nasolabial fold
Prosthodontics
Answer: 1
As lower denture settles down due to ridge resorption, the effect is a prominent chin.
In a complete denture, the position of the mandibular first premolar is
determined by the
1. mental foramen
2. adjacent second premolar
3. termination of the mylohyoid ridge
4. mandibular canine
Prosthodontics
Answer: 4
Explanation: In the arrangement of teeth in a complete denture, the
mandibular first premolar is typically positioned with its mesial aspect in
contact with the lateral aspect of the mandibular canine. This is part of the
denture setup to ensure proper occlusal relationships and aesthetics.
Isolated recession on a labially prominent upper canine is noted. Examination revealed absence of keratinised gingiva in that area and the vestibule is shallow. The best mehtod to create zone of attached gingiva in this case
1. Free pedicle graft
2. Lateral sliding graft
3. Apically positioned flap
4. Coronally displaced flap
