Exam Flashcards
List some indications for an MCC
- If aesthetics are a concern
- Good patient compliance
- Good oral hygiene
- Root canal done
- Post and core done
List some contra indications of an MCC
- Subgingival caries
- Short crown length
- No ferrule of 0.5-2mm
- Large pulp
- Bruxism
List some indications for an FVC
- Aesthetics NOT a concern
- Bruxism
- lArge pulp
- Root canal done
- Post and core done
List some contra indications of an FVC
- Subgingival caries

List the stages of clinical assessment for a patient we might place a crown on
- . Extra oral exam
- Intra oral exam
- Occlusion
- Dental chart
- BPE and sub gingival health
- Special test
- Differential Diagnosis
- patient preference
- Do you need to Reorganise occlusion ?
Describe the loose criteria that determines if RCT has been a success
- Absence of pain swelling and other symptoms
- No associated sinus tract
- No loss of function of the tooth
- Radiogrpahic evidence of a normal PDL around the root
- A reduction in the size of the lesion
Describe the loose criteria that determines if RCT has failed
- Pain, swelling and other symptoms
- Lesion remained the same size or only slightly demined
- Ainus tract
- Loss of function
List the stages of placing a rubber dam
- Floss the contact points
- Select a clamp a nd thread a safely line
- Try clamp over tooth carefully
- Punch holes into the rubber sheet
- Clamp the most distal tooth
- Stretch rubber dam over and around the wings of the clasp
- Flosss down the mesially position hole and secure using a widget
- Apply dam Frame
- Place napkin/gauze between patient’s skin & dam
When placing a rubber dam for an Endodontics procedure what else should you do
Use oraseal around the tooth

What are the advantages of using a rubber dam
- Airway protection
- Crossi infection control
- Aseptic field
- Soft tissue protection
- Prevents contamination of bonding surfaces.
- Soft tissue retraction
What are the disadvantages of using a rubber dam
- New range of skills to acquire
- LA might be needed
- Potentila for gingival trauma
- Shade taking compromised
- Potential for claustrophobia.
- Potential latex allergy.
- Increased treatment costs, time, materials and equipment required.
How do we determine the working length using a radiograph
Working length is at the apical constriction, 0.5 – 2mm away from the radiographic apex
When examine a patients occlusion what do you ask yourself
- What is the patients angles incisor relationship
- Does the patent have a stable ICP
- Does the patient have a cross bite
- Are there any interferences in ICP or lateral excursion
- What class do the patient’s incisors fall under?
What can be some intra oral signs of adverse occlusion
- Cheek ridging
- Tongue scalloping
- Evidence of wear
- Fracture e
- mobility
- Drifting
- Overeruption
What would you need to record if models of teeth would have fit together but you have now prepped a tooth making it unclear how they fit together
Blue mousse over top of the prep and getting patient to close together in ICP
If there is significant wear and no clear position of models what would you record
Full arch wax/ Blue mousse in RCP
If there are too many missing teeth and there is no stable ICP what would you record
Wax rims in edentulous spaces & blue mousse
