Walshama"s forceps are used to
1) Remove teeth
2) Remove root
3) Clamp blood vessels
4) Reduce nasal bone fractures
Oral Surgery
Answer: 4
Walsham's forceps are a surgical instrument commonly used in maxillofacial surgery. They are designed to reduce and manipulate small, fine bony structures, such as the nasal bones in the case of nasal fractures.
Among the following items in the past medical history, which would most affect the choice of local anaesthetic agent?
1. RHD
2. Hyperthyroidism
3. Adrenal insufficiency
4. Asthma
Oral Surgery
Answer: 2
Adrenal insufficiency would most affect the choice of local anaesthetic agent.
Among the following which is advantage of sagittal split osteotomy over transoral vertical subcondylar osteotomy
1) Greater mandibular movement is achieved
2) Because it is intraoral procedure. No external scar is produced
3) Alone may be used to correct a mandibular retrognathism and prognathism
4) Less chance of injuring the inferior dental canal
Oral Surgery
Answer: 3
Among the given choices, the advantage of a sagittal split osteotomy over a transoral vertical subcondylar osteotomy is that it allows for greater mandibular movement. The sagittal split osteotomy is a surgical technique used in orthognathic surgery to reposition the mandible in cases of severe skeletal discrepancies. It involves splitting the mandible along the midline and moving the two halves apart, which can provide significant advancement or setback of the lower jaw. This technique may be used to correct both mandibular prognathism and retrognathism, making it a versatile option in orthognathic surgery. Additionally, it is associated with fewer complications compared to the transoral vertical subcondylar osteotomy, which involves cutting through the medullary bone of the condyle and can pose a higher risk of injury to the facial nerve and other vital structures. However, it's important to note that the choice of surgical approach is determined by the specific case and the individual patient's needs.
A dermatome is used
1. To remove scar tissue
2. To harvest skin grafts
3. To abrade skin which is pigmented
4. For pairing of lacerated soft tissue
Oral Surgery
Answer: 2
A dermatome is used to harvest skin grafts.
According to gate control theory of pain, large fiber impulses tend to
1. Bypass the central control process
2. Inhibit the effect of painful stimuli transmitted by small fibers
3. Both the above
4. None of the above
Oral Surgery
Answer: 2
According to gate control theory of pain, large fiber impulses tend to inhibit the effect of painful stimuli transmitted by small fibers.
A surgical procedure required bilateral block. A bilateral inferior alveolar nerve block is
1. Not contraindicated
2. Should rarely be preformed
3. May cause space infection
4. None of the above
Oral Surgery
Answer: 1
A bilateral inferior alveolar nerve block is not inherently contraindicated. It
is commonly performed in cases requiring surgery on both sides of the mandible.
However, it should be done with caution in patients with certain medical
conditions or anatomical variations that could increase the risk of
complications. It is important to assess each patient individually before
administering the block.
Compbell line is seen in
1. Transpharyngeal view
2. Transorbital view
3. Occipitomental view
4. Towne view
Oral Surgery Answer: 3
The Campbell line is an important anatomical reference line
used in radiology, particularly in the context of the occipitomental
view (also known as the Water's view). This line is drawn from the
outer canthus of the eye to the midpoint of the maxillary sinus and is used to
assess the position of the maxillary sinuses and other related structures in the
skull.
Occipitomental view: This view is commonly used in
maxillofacial imaging to visualize the maxillary sinuses, orbits, and nasal
cavity. The Campbell line helps in evaluating the relationship of these
structures.
Transpharyngeal view: This view is used to visualize the
pharynx
Transorbital view: This view focuses on the orbits and
surrounding structures
Towne view: This view is used to visualize the occipital
bone and the base of the skull
