Q

a thin, stretchable material that becomes a barrier when it is appropriately applied to selected teeth.

When this is in place, only selected teeth are visible through the dam

A

dental dam

18
Q

The 6 × 6–inch dental dam size is used for applications on the posterior teeth in the _____ dentition.

The 5 × 5–inch size is used for primary dentition or for______ application on permanent dentition

A

permanaent

anterior

19
Q

this dental dam thickness is selected when tissue retraction and extra resistance to tearing are important.

Examples of this include placement over a crown, a fixed bridge, or teeth with tight contacts.

A

heavy

20
Q

this dental dam thickness is widely used in operative procedures because of its ease of handling and ability to isolate selected teeth.

A

medium

21
Q

this dental dam thickness is most frequently used for endodontic applications. Because only one tooth is isolated, less stretch is required.

A

Thin

22
Q

necessary to stabilize and stretch the dam, so it can fit tightly around the teeth but remain out of the operator’s way

A

dental dam frame

23
Q

can be used and is placed between the patient’s face and the dam. The primary purpose of the this is to increase patient comfort by absorbing moisture

A

dental dam napkin

24
Q

When the dam is placed, two types of lubricants may be selected

A

zinc oxide
or petroleum jelly

water soluble lubricant ( should not be used with rubber dam)

25
Q

used for the placement and removal of the dental dam clamp

A

dental dam forceps

26
Q

Dental Dam Stabilizing Methods

A

dental dam clamp

dental dam stabilizing cord,

compound wax.

27
Q

the rounded portion of the clamp that extends through the dental dam

A

bow

Q

encircle the tooth and are shaped into four prongs

A

jaws

29
Q

The anchor tooth holds the _____ , and the keypunch hole covers the ____ _____ .

A

dental dam clamp

anchor tooth

Q

In general, the holes are spaced with __ to __ mm between the edges, not the centers, of the holes

A

31
Q

The isolation of anterior teeth occurs typically from _____ to _____

A

33
Q

The concern in a surgical procedure is the removal of _____, _____ & _____ rather than a large amount of water and fluid

A

34
Q

true or false

A

false. always place evacuator before the dentist positions handpiece and mouth mirror.

35
Q

Frequent rinsing of the oral cavity maintains a ________ ______ _______ for the dentist and keeps the patient comfortable

A

clear operating field

36
Q

the following features should characterize the isolation technique:

A
  • Easy to apply
  • Protective of soft and hard tissues
  • Comfortable for the patient
  • Retraction that provides better visualization for the operator
  • Prevention of moisture contamination
  • Isolation of the area of concern
37
Q

designed to hold multiple cotton rolls in a more secure manner for the mandibular quadrant

A

cotton roll holder

38
Q

The dental dam is routinely placed AFTER the local anesthetic has been administered.

t or f

A

true

39
Q

are used to mark the dental dam with predetermined markings for average adult and pediatric arches

provides greater flexibility when one or more teeth in the arch are out of alignment.

A

Dental Dam Stamp and Template

40
Q

always should be attached to the bow of the dental dam clamp as a ligature before the clamp is placed in the patient’s mouth.
