Q

Describe the growth patterns of the maxilla and mandible.

A
  • Maxilla
    • Intramembranous ossification
    • Moves out from under cranium - downward and forward
  • Mandible
    • Endochondral and Intramembranous ossification
    • Chin - downward & forward
    • Condyle - upward & backward
    • Ramus - grows away from chin

A

Band & Loop

17
Q

What space management would you use for unilateral single tooth?

A

Distal Shoe

*Careful in medically compromised

18
Q

Describe the “Tell-Show-Do” method.

A

Tell-show-do - teaches aspects of visit and familiarizes, desensitizes and covers expectations

Tells - patient what will happen

Shows - on patient’s hand, etc

Do - the treatment as said

19
Q

A
  • Hands over patients hands or arms
20
Q

What is the appropriate use of active restraint?

A
  • Holding hands, legs, shoulders, etc
  • Knee to knee
  • Mouth props are not protective stabilization**
21
Q

What is the primary source of Strep Mutans in children?

A

Maternal Vertical Transmission

22
Q

What are the indications for a stainless steel crown?

A
  • Coronal breakdown
  • Marginal ridge break through
  • Cervical caries
  • Multiple proximal surfaces
  • Hypoplasia
  • Pulp therapy
  • Caries risk, other materials likely to fail
  • Special needs
  • General anesthesia
23
Q

What are the indications for filling restorations?

A
  • Proximal caries
  • No marginal ridge break-through
  • No cervical caries
    • No MOD’s in proximal molars!!
24
Q

What makes a crown stay on a tooth?

A

Cement and contours of the crown (undercuts)

25
Q

On anteriors, if you’redoing a class III, when would you pick entering one side or another?

A
  • Direct - accessible proximal
  • Indirect - via affected embrasure (labial lingual)
26
Q

What pliers would you use for the following?

  1. ​Countouring
  2. Crimping
  3. Flatten proximal wall
A
  1. 114 Pliers
  2. 417 Pliers
  3. Howe Pliers - flattens the proximal wall of crown to round the crown by compressing mesial-distal (used when interproximal decay has caused space loss)
27
Q

What is the success rate of stainless steel versus amalgam?

A

Stainless steel is twice as durable as amalgam

28
Q

What are the indications for Interim Therapeutic Restorations?

A
  • When circumstances do not permis traditional cavity preps
  • Placement of traditional dental restorations or when caries control in necessary prior to placement of definitive restorations
  • Minimal lesions
  • Young children
29
Q

What is not a factor to consider when deciding whether a fluoride supplement should be prescribed to the child?
