Attachment loss and probing depth
# 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
A mature dental plaque is formed after:
# 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.
Artery supplying the buccal flap in an oroantral communication associated with maxillary third molar
# 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 buccal flap will receive its nourishment from the blood vessel that supplies the maxillary third molar, which is the posterior superior alveolar artery.
Posterior superior alveolar artery is the blood vessel that provides blood supply to the lining of maxillary sinus, the alveolar bone, the molars and premolars of the maxilla and the gingiva.
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.

# Who among the following is named as the pioneer in the treatment of cleft palate and related problems?
A. Norman Kingsley
B. Edward H. Angle
C. Graber
D. Nance
The correct answer is A. Norman Kingsley.
Kingsley, was among the first to use extraoral force to correct protruding teeth. He was also a pioneer in the treatment of cleft palate and related problems.
First Orthodontic Appliance was developed by:
# Who among the following developed the first orthodontic appliance?
A. Pierre Fauchard
B. Norman Kingsley
C. Emerson C. Angell
D. Edward H. Angle
The correct answer is A. Pierre Fauchard.
Orthodontics truly began developing in the 18th and 19th centuries. In 1728, French dentist Pierre Fauchard, who is often credited with inventing modern orthodontics, published a book entitled "The Surgeon Dentist" on methods of straightening teeth. Fauchard, in his practice, used a device called a "Bandeau", a horseshoe-shaped piece of iron that helped expand the palate. In 1754, another French dentist, Louis Bourdet, dentist to the King of France, followed Fauchard's book with The Dentist's Art, which also dedicated a chapter to tooth alignment and application. He perfected the "Bandeau" and was the first dentist on record to recommend extraction of the premolar teeth to alleviate crowding and to improve jaw growth.
Pierre Fauchard, 'Father of modern dentistry', as early as 1723, developed first orthodontic appliance.
Norman Kingsley, the first to use extraoral force on teeth. He is also considered to be the first person to use orthopedic force to correct protruding teeth.
Bunon- first to use the term 'orthopedic appliances'
Emerson C. Angell - founder of 'rapid maxillary expansion'
William E. Magill - First person to band teeth for active tooth movement.
