BPKIHS Online OPD Registration

 

B.P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences (BPKIHS) has initiated an innovative service of Online registration and ticketing for providing OPD services from 2077-06-26. For this, the patients have to get themselves registered from the Android App BPKIHS  

Patients have to:

- register their personal details

- select the desired department and register the ticket / pay the stipulated amount via Khalti or eSewa or IMEPay

- If registered before 8:00 AM, the patients will be registered for the same day, and those registering after 8:00 AM will be registered for the next day. Patients have to collect their OPD cards from the counter in the respective departments and enter the doctor's chamber. 

At present, this service is available only for routine OPD (daily regular OPD). In the upcoming days, Institutional based private practice (Private OPD) registration will also be incorporated in the app.

Staffs from respective departments working in the OPD should collect the OPD cards of the patients registered through online within 9:00 AM on the same day.

Age related gingival recession

# Age-related gingival recession can be best treated by:

A. Gingivoplasty

B. Pedicle graft

C. Free gingival graft

D. No treatment

The correct answer is D. No treatment.

Gingival recession increases with age, the incidence varies from 8% in children to 100% after the age of 50 years. This has led to some investigators to assume that recession may be a physiologic process related to ageing. 

Tooth most affected by gingivitis

 # Facial surface of which tooth is most affected by gingivitis?

 A. Upper first molar

 B. Lower first molar

 C. Lower central incisor

 D. Lower premolar

The correct answer is A. Upper first molar.

Facial surface of upper first molar and lingual surface of lower central incisors is most affected by gingivitis. This is due to close proximity to opening of salivary ducts.

Life saver shaped gingival enlargement of Marginal Gingiva

 # Life saver shaped gingival enlargement of marginal gingiva is called:

 A. Stillman's cleft

 B. McCall's festoons

 C. Widow peaks

 D. Craters

The correct answer is B. McCall's festoons.

The term McCall's festoons has been used to describe a rolled, thickened band of gingiva that is usually seen adjacent to the cuspids when recession approaches the mucogingival junction.

Stillman clefts are apostrophe shaped indentations extending to marginal gingiva. They are usually present on facial surface. 

Craters are bony defects or concavities found in interdental areas.

Widow peaks are pseudo piling up of gingiva when failed to remove bony discrepancies at gingival line angles during osteotomy procedures. These are peaks of residual cortical bone left out during horizontal grooving at the facial/palatal/lingual line angles.
