MDS PREP
The response to dental irritants is not likely to be altered by
1 cardiovascular disease
2. diabetes
3. pregnancy
4. steroid therapy
Periodontics
Answer: 1
While systemic conditions like diabetes, pregnancy, and steroid therapy can
significantly alter tissue responses to irritants, cardiovascular disease is
less likely to have a direct impact on local periodontal tissue responses.
Secondary occlusal traumatism is least likely to be associated with
1. inflamed gingiva
2. bruxism
3. tooth mobility
4. migration of teeth
Periodontics
Answer: 1
Secondary occlusal trauma primarily relates to occlusal discrepancies or effects
on tooth mobility due to periodontal attachment loss rather than localized
gingival inflammation alone.
A tight grasp by the operator on the explores will
1. Prevent tactile sensitivity
2. Provide greater maneuverability
3. Prevent muscle fatigue of the fingers
4. All the above
Periodontics
Answer: 1
A tight grasp by the operator on the explorer will prevent tactile sensitivity.
Which of the following conditions gingivectomy is contraindicated:
1. Gingival sulcus beyond mucogingival junction.
2. Enlargement of the gingival.
3. Papillary enlargement.
4. Enlargement due to acute systems disease.
Periodontics
Answer: 1
Gingivectomy is a surgical procedure used to remove excess gingival tissue. It is typically performed when the enlargement of the gingival tissue is due to chronic inflammation or other local factors. However, if the enlargement is caused by an acute systemic disease, the surgical intervention could potentially exacerbate the underlying condition or lead to complications.

1. Peppermint flavoured
2. Clove flavoured
3. Cinnamon flavoured
4. Banana flavoured
Periodontics
Answer: 1
Plasma cell gingivitis is seen in individuals who chew peppermint-flavored chewing gum.

1.bone taken frm same individual
2.bone taken frm genetically same individual
3.bone taken frm identical twin

Finger-on-finger rest is used for scaling on
1. Maxillary posterior region
2. Mandibular posterior region
3. Mandibular anterior region
4. Maxillary anterior region
Periodontics
Answer: 1
Finger-on-finger rest is used for scaling in the maxillary posterior region.
When doing instrumentation near the cementoenamel junction, cementum completely removed because it is
1. very thin in this area
2. usually softer than subgingival calculus
3. necrotic in the pocket
4. all of the above
Periodontics
Answer: 4
The cementum near the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) is indeed very thin, making
it more susceptible to removal during instrumentation. Additionally, cementum
can be softer than subgingival calculus, and in cases of periodontal disease, it
may become necrotic.
