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. ” T/F.
true
5. Mastication forces are mainly vertical and parafunctional forces are both horizontal and vertical (pg 17). T/F.
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” T/F.
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). T/F.
false
9. The incisive papilla acts as a guide to denture tooth placement because it is located approx 12mm posterior to the central incisors. T/F.
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
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/F.
true
17. Minimizing the amount of pressure in a final impression to complete dentures is most closely associated with which objective of impression making?
preserve
18. The surface area of support for the mandibular arch is approx half that of the max. The max arch resorbs 4x as fast at the mandible. T/F.
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. T/F.
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
22. An enlarged maxillary tuberosity may interfere with (contact) what anatomic structure(s)?
Two of the above
23. The plane of occlusion is located at the level of ¾ the height of the retromolar pad. T/F.
false
24. Which muscle(s) forms boundaries to the retromylohyoid space?
Two of the above
25. Which of the following is a secondary stress bearing area?
residual ridge of the mandible
Formula for RVD-OVD
= IOD; also IOD + OVD = RVD
purpose of facebow

Facebow for
(orientation/relation) of maxilla to articulator

mandibular arc of closure
protrusive gives you

protrusive taken during ________ relations
horizontal condylar inclination

horizontal
7. CR is _________ relation
horizontal
8. contacts during bilateral are
protrusive, lateral excursive, CR But NOT physiological rest
teeth ________ contact in bilateral in physiological rest
should not
monoplane neurocentric C2/3; second best would be
lingualized
Phonetics: F sounds are for lip length
S: occluding vertical dimension; closest speaking space

M: RVD (Emma)

F sounds for tooth position/lip length
12. separation of jaws as mandible protrudes =
christensen’s effect
13. when jaws are at rest, teeth are separated by
IOD
14. Freeway space =
IOD
Consistent with neurocentric occlusion
set on flat plane, NO overlap of anterior teeth, NO lateral excursive, parallel to mean foundation plane
Bilaterally balanced contact occurs:
in protrusion, not in rest, in centric, in lateral excursion
Mandibular Bone resorption:
labial of anterior, equal in PreMolars and more lingual on the posterior
posterior palatal seal functions
(all of the above—prevent ingress of food, etc)
Incisal guidance is for
ESTHETICS
Lip Support + Incisor Placement
2/3 of anterior teeth and 8-10 mm for papilla
Fish:
neutral zone is the arch form or denture space
degree of separation is due to
slope of articular eminence and can be set w/ protrusive
Hanau’s quint:
occlusal plane is parallel to ala-tragus (Campers) line
Mandibular occlusal rim ________ have a lingual concavity for the tongue
does NOT
decrease vertical and increase horizontal to __________ incisal guidance
decrease
