FINAL EXAMINATION LAB Flashcards
Parts of the maxilla and the Mandible that forms the alveolar socket
Cementum
Dentin
Alveolar Bone
Cementoenamel junction
Alveolar Bone
The branch of external carotid artery that innervates both maxillary and mandibular teeth are
a. Superior Alveolar Artery
b. Inferior Alveolar Artery
c. Facial nerve
d. Sphenopalatine Artery
A and B. Superior Alveolar Artery and Inferior Alveolar Artery
The chief component of cementum at the cementoenamel junction is collagen, Fluoride being the principal mineral component. The chief Constituent of the organic material is collagen. (TRUE OR FALSE)
First part of the statement is TRUE, second is FALSE
The cementum joins the enamel near the middle third of the root of the tooth; the cementoenamel junction is somewhat variable. It may extend precisely to the termination to the termination of the enamel, it may extend beyond the cervical termination of the enamel or it may fail to extend to the enamel.
(TRUE OR FALSE)
First part of the statement is FALSE, second is TRUE.
Vitamin B Deficiency
- Xeropthalmia
- Scurvy
- Pernicious anemia
- Primary Adrenal Cortical insufficiency
Pernicious Anemia
This is a process in which the margin of the gum tissue that surrounds the teeth pulls back exposing more of the teeth.
Recession
The movement of the teeth is in a mesio-occlusal direction. Therefore, this movement is also called?
Physiologic Mesial Drift
A soft tissue that is composed of richly vascularized and innervated connective tissue
Pulp
A branch of the maxillary artery that runs to the ramus of the mandible projected by the phenomandibular ligament.
Inferior Alveolar artery
This is a muscle of lymphoid tissue with primary function of producing lymphocytes and has a role in immunization.
Tonsil
When considering the oral cavity, it is divided into 3 parts: the Vestibule, which includes all of the teeth, the oral cavity proper, which is the area from the teeth to the larynx, and the digestive system that begins at the lips to the palatine tonsils. (TRUE OR FALSE)
Both are false
The oral cavity begins at the lips and cheeks and extends posteriorly to the area of the palatine tonsils. These tonsils lie on the sides of the throat between two folds of tissues, 3 in front and 2 at the back. (TRUE OR FALSE)
First part of the statement is TRUE, second is FALSE
Alternating layers of acellular and cellular cementum during deposition may happen. (TRUE OR FALSE)
TRUE
Continuous axial tooth movement compensates for tooth wear. (TRUE OR FALSE)
TRUE
Pharyngeal tonsils are located on the medial surface of the dorsal wall of the oropharynx
False
