 # A patient has a 5 mm probing depth on the distal of their maxillary second premolar, 2 mm of recession was also charted in that area. What is the attachment loss in that area? A. 7 mm B. 10 mm C. 5 mm D. 3 mm The correct answer is A. 7 mm. Periodontal health is assessed by determining how much attachment a tooth has lost. A healthy periodontium demonstrates a sulcular depth of 1-3 mm. Recession is the distance from the CEJ to the marginal gingiva. Probing depth is the distance betweeen the marginal gingiva and the floor of sulcus.  Loss of attachment is measured as the distance of CEJ from the sulcular depth.  So, Loss of Attachment (LOA) = Recession+Probing depth CLICK HERE FOR MORE MCQs

 # How many hours after mechanical debridement with a toothbrush is a mature dental plaque found? A. 24-48 hours B. 3-5 hours C. 6-10 hours D. 12-24 hours E. 1-2 hours The correct answer is A. 24-48 hours. Mature dental plaque is usually formed on the teeth within 24-48 hours after plaque removal. The bacterial biofilm first attach to the tooth via a pellicle, consisting of glycoproteins. The first bacteria to attach to the pellicle glycoproteins are gram positive aerobic cocci such as Streptococcus sanguinis.  After 24 hours, anaerobic gram negative cocci, rods, and filaments begin to colonize the plaque.  CLICK HERE TO VIEW MORE MCQs BY TOPIC

 # A buccal flap used to cover an oroantral communication associated with maxillary third molar would receive nourishment from which of the following arteries? A. Posterior superior alveolar B. Nasopalatine C. Greater palatine D. Facial The correct answer is A. Posterior superior alveolar.

Facial artery branches out and supplies blood to several parts of the face which includes the lips, portions of the nose, submental area and some portions of the tonsils. Nasopalatine artery (sphenopalatine artery) branches off to the walls of nasal septum. Greater palatine artery gives off blood supply to the nasal septum and the hard palate. CLICK HERE...
