2. According to Zab and Bolender (pg 4) “many edentulous patients may be described as unable to adjust to complete dentures and are described as prosethically”?
|
maladaptive
|
|
|
3. The mandibular prosethesis featured in this picture is properly termed?
|
hybrid prosthesis
|
|
|
4. Accord to Zab and Bolender (pg 16) “chewing occurs chiefly in the premolar molar regions and both right and left sides are used to the same extent.. the tougher the consistency of the food bolus, the greater is the person’s preference to the premolar area. ”
|
true
|
|
|
5. Mastication forces are mainly vertical and parafunctional forces are both horizontal and vertical (pg 17).
|
true
|
|
|
6. Accord to Zab and Bolender (pg 441), “retention is ‘suction’ or negative pressure’ that resists removal of the denture in a direction opposite to that of its insertion”
|
false
|
|
|
7. If the gray stick compound is not sufficiently softened when border molding, the most likely effect on the denture border is?
|
overextension
|
|
|
8. The vibrating line represents the posterior terminus of the maxillary complete denture and is located at the junction of the hard and soft palates (pg 217).
|
F
|
|
|
9. The incisive papilla acts as a guide to denture tooth placement because it is located approx 12mm posterior to the central incisors.
|
false
|
|
|
10. The retromolar pad is extremely resistant to resorption due to tensile stimulus from?
|
the temporalis
|
|
|
11. What causes the pronounced curve in the db border of a mandibular complete denture?
|
Action of the masseter forcing the buccinators in during clenching
|
|
|
12. When border molding the max tuberosity area, it is necessary to ask the patient to open wide and move the jaw around in order to register what?
|
Hamular Notch—I think its coronoid process
|
|
|
13. The impression technique using in lab is?
|
selective pressure
|
|
|
14. Boxing around the preliminary alginate impression with wax or creating a tongue space causes which of the following?
|
causes lateral pressure to be exerted on the impression leading to an inaccurate diagnostic cast
|
|
|
16. Preliminary impressions are made with an impression material that has a relatively high viscocity to help compensate for the deficiencies of a stock tray.
|
T
|
|
|
17. Minimizing the amount of pressure in a final impression to complete dentures is most closely associated with which objective of impression making?
|
preserve

|
First statement is true. Second statement is false.
|
|
|
19. Covering the widest possible area within the functional limits of the surrounding tissues is most closely associated with what objective of impression making?
|
support
|
|
|
20. Epidemiologic studies suggest that although the rate of edentulism is decreasing, this decrease is offset by rapid expansion in the elderly population groups resulting in a continued need for complete denture services.
|
true
|
|
|
21. Which of the following statements correctly describes denture maintenance?
|
Two denture adjustments are generally needed. The first occurs 24 hrs post denture deliv and the second occurs 1 week later
