Multiple odontogenic cysts are seen in:

 # Multiple odontogenic cysts are seen in:
A. Cherubism
B. Apert’s syndrome
C. Marfan’s syndrome
D. Down’s syndrome


The correct answer is C. Marfan's syndrome.

Oral Manifestations of Marfan's syndrome
According to Baden and Spirgi, who have reviewed the oral manifestations of this disease, a high, arched palatal vault is very prevalent and may be a constant finding. Bifid uvula is also reported as well as malocclusion. In addition, multiple odontogenic cysts of the maxilla and mandible have occasionally been reported, most recently by Oatis and his coworkers. One additional finding sometimes present, is temporomandibular dysarthrosis

Right coronary artery arises from:

 # Right coronary artery arises from:
A. Anterior aortic sinus
B. Posterior aortic sinus
C. Right aortic sinus
D. Left aortic sinus





The correct answer is A. Anterior aortic sinus.

An aortic sinus is one of the anatomic dilations of the ascending aorta, which occurs just above the aortic valve. These widenings are between the wall of the aorta and each of the three cusps of the aortic valve. 

There are generally three aortic sinuses: (one anterior and 2 posterior sinus) 
• Right coronary artery arises from anterior aortic sinus of ascending aorta. 
• Left coronary artery arises from left posterior aortic sinus. 
• Right posterior aortic sinus is non-coronary sinus. 

A sphygmomanometer reading can be correct only when:

 # A Sphygmomanometer reading can be correct only when :
A. Deflation is 5-10 mm Hg per heart beat 
B. cuff is slightly full on applying to patient's arm 
C.  the cuff width is 25% of the diameter of the patient's arm 
D. length of the bladder encircle 80% of the patient's arm 


The correct answer is D. length of the bladder encircle 80% of the patient's arm.

Choosing appropriate sized cuff is vital to record accurate blood pressure in children. Small sized cuff gives elevated blood pressure readings and bigger sized cuffs give low blood pressure reading. The inflatable bladder inside the cuff should have an ideal width of at least 40% of the mid arm circumference and a cuff length that is 80 - 100% of the arm circumference. 

Nomenclature of Hand Instruments

# The shape of the shank of an instrument is described by: 
A. Class 
B. Subclass 
C. Suborder 
D. Order 



The correct answer is B. Subclass.


Dr. G.V. Black established a nomenclature for hand instruments, similar to the biological classification. 

1. Order : Purpose of instrument Eg : excavator or scaler. 
2. Suborder : Position or manner of use Eg : Push, pull 
3. Class : Form of working end, Eg : hatchet, chisel. 
4. Subclass : Shape of shank Eg : Monoangle or binangle. 

Naming usually moves from 4 to 1.
