MDS PREP
Site specific characteristic in oral cavity is not seen in which disease
1. Herpetic gingivostomatitis
2. ANUG
3. Diphtheria
4. Desquamative gingivitis
Periodontics
Answer: 1
Site-specific characteristics are not seen in herpetic gingivostomatitis.
Which of the following periodontal diseases does not have calculus:
1. ANUG.
2. Chronic adult periodontitis.
3. Juvenile periodontitis.
4. Periodontal abscess.
Periodontics
Answer: 3
Juvenile periodontitis, now referred to as localized aggressive periodontitis, is characterized by the loss of periodontal attachment and bone in adolescents and young adults, often without the presence of significant calculus. This distinguishes it from other forms of periodontitis, where calculus is typically present.
A young adult shows non-fluctuant, tender and redness swelling in the marginal ginginal lesion. This is most likely:
1. Periodontal abscess.
2. Periapical abscess.
3. Gingival abscess.
4. Periapical sinus.
Periodontics
Answer: 3
A gingival abscess is localized to the gingiva
and typically presents as a painful, non-fluctuant swelling with redness and
tenderness. It differs from periodontal abscesses, which involve deeper
structures, and periapical abscesses, which originate from the tooth apex.
The first sequential step in osseous resection technique
1. Vertical grooving
2. Radicular blending
3. Flattening interproximal bone
4. Gradualising marginal bone
Periodontics
Answer: 1
The first sequential step in the osseous resection technique is vertical grooving.
The most prominent immunoglobulin in sulcular fluid is
l . Ig A
2. Ig E
3. Ig M
4. Ig G
Periodontics
Answer: 4
The most prominent immunoglobulin in sulcular fluid is IgG.
Sulcular fluid is the fluid found in the space between the tooth and the
surrounding gingival tissue. It contains various immunoglobulins that contribute
to the local immune defense against oral pathogens. While IgA is the most common
immunoglobulin found in saliva, which is closely related to the oral cavity, the
most prominent immunoglobulin in sulcular fluid is actually IgG. IgG is the most
abundant antibody in the blood and can be found in various bodily fluids,
including sulcular fluid, where it provides protection against infections and
inflammation. IgE is associated with allergic reactions, IgM with early immune
responses, and IgA with mucosal surfaces
The term gingival ablation indicates
1) Gingival recession due to faulty tooth brushing
2) Gingival recession accentuated by prominent palatal root
3) Gingival recession due to friction from hard root
4) Gingival recession due to friction from soft tissue
Periodontics
Answer: 4
Gingival ablation is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of a portion of the gingival tissue. It is often used to treat conditions such as excessive gingival overgrowth or to improve the health of the gum tissue. Gingival recession due to friction from soft tissue, such as the tongue or cheek, is one possible outcome of this procedure. It does not inherently involve the removal of tissue due to tooth brushing, prominent roots, or hard tissue friction.
Which of the following procedures is least successful in resolving a periodontally related osseous defect
1. Osseous coagulum graft
2. Resection surgery
3. Reattachment procedure
4. Alloplast graft
The procedure least successful in resolving a periodontally related osseous defect is the reattachment procedure.
The following most frequently forms at tooth-tissue interface following flap surgery or curettage
1. Scar formation
2. Adhesion of collagen fibres
3. Long junctional epithelium
4. Collagen fibres parallel to root surface
The most frequently formed tissue at the tooth-tissue interface following flap surgery or curettage is long junctional epithelium.
