Public Health Dentistry

The examination procedure described, where an examiner feels or presses parts of the body with their fingers, is known as palpation. This technique is a key part of a physical examination to assess the texture, size, consistency, location, and tenderness of body organs or structures.
Palpitation refers to a person's subjective sensation of their own heart beat being rapid, pounding, or skipped.
Inspection involves visually examining the body for signs of disease or injury.
Auscultation is the action of listening to sounds from organs (like the heart, lungs, or intestines) with a stethoscope.

Orthodontics

The high labial-bow is typically used for molar retraction and is not designed for incisor retraction. In contrast, Roberts retractors, split labial-bows, and apron springs are all instruments that can be used effectively for retracting incisors during orthodontic treatment.

General Microbiology

Copro antibodies are antibodies found in feces These are typically IgA antibodies that are produced in response to infections in the gastrointestinal tract, including typhoid fever. They can be detected in stool samples and are used in diagnostic tests.

Periodontics

The apically positioned flap is a standard periodontal surgical procedure.

It increases clinical crown length by exposing more tooth surface.

It preserves the width of attached gingiva, which is a key advantage of the technique.

It is effective for pocket elimination or reduction.

It is more commonly performed on the buccal (cheek) and lingual (tongue) sides of the teeth, where there is sufficient attached gingiva.

Due to the anatomical limitations and lack of attached gingiva, it is generally contraindicated or less commonly done on the palatal (roof of the mouth) side.

Periodontics

Typically, gingivitis does not present distinct radiographic changes as seen in periodontitis, where bone loss is evident. Gingivitis is characterized mainly by inflammation of the soft tissues.

Pharmacology

Heparin Heparin does not the cross the placenta.

Hence its safe for use in pregnant patients who need anticoagulation.

Pedodontics

While sharpening curettes and sickles, the internal angle of 70-80 degrees must be preserved between the face and lateral surface.

Conservative Dentistry

The bonding in porcelain fused to metal (PFM) restorations is achieved through a combination of both chemical and mechanical mechanisms. 


The chemical bond forms due to oxide interactions between the metal and the porcelain, while the mechanical bond is created by the porcelain flowing into microscopic irregularities on the surface of the metal.

Physiology

The question contains an error. The terms autocrine, paracrine, endocrine, and synaptic are not types of action potential propagation. Instead, they describe different modes of hormonal or neuronal signaling. Action potentials are propagated along axons without any of these specific types of interactions.

Endodontics

In endodontics, the primary goal of using gutta-percha is to achieve a proper seal at the apex of the root canal system. A definite apical seal is crucial to prevent the ingress of bacteria and fluids, which can lead to reinfection. While the cone should fit well within the canal, the emphasis is on achieving a good seal rather than merely fitting exactly at the apex or being 2 mm from it.
