a) Exacting
b) Philosophical
c) Critical
d) Indifferent

2. What is the treatment of choice for a small torus in the palate of an edentulous patient?
a) Surgical removal of torus
b) Adequate relief in the complete denture over the torus
c) Denture is made as such
d) Patient is rejected for prosthodontic treatment

3. In history taking for complete denture patient, increasing age

a)Increase the readiness to form new habits
b)Decreases the ability to form new habits
a)has no effects on developing new habits
b)None of the answers are true
4. An advantage of alginate impression is:
a) Attachment of the alginate to the tray is good.
b) It can be added to if faulty.
c) Dimensional stability.
d) It is elastic and can be withdrawn over undercuts.

5. In mandibular selective pressure impression, the pressure is made on:

a) The ridge crest.
b) All denture foundation.
c) The retromolar pad area.
d) The buccal shelf area.
6. To aid the patient to retrude the mandible during centric relation registration,
he/ she should be asked to:
a) Protrude the tongue
b) Wetting lower lip by the tongue
c) Raise the tongue backwards
d) Move tongue from side to side

7. Freeway space less than normal, in complete dentures has the following
adverse result:
a) Mucosal irritation
b) Irresistible alveolar ridge resorption
c) Nonspecific ulcerations
d) None of the answers are true
8. Excessive or inadequate vertical dimension of occlusion may result in problem.
What is the effect of excessive vertical dimension?
a) Poor denture retention.
b) Increased interocclusal distance.
c) Drooping of the corners of the mouth and winkles around the lip.
d) Trauma to underlying supporting tissues.

9. The freeway space is 2-4 mm. How can you get it?
a) By getting the vertical dimension of occlusion
b) By getting vertical dimension of rest
c) By getting the difference between the vertical dimension of rest and vertical
dimension of occlusion
d) By getting the space between posterior teeth during mandibular protrusion

10. Applying unilateral pressure on the occlusal surface of the trial denture causes
its instability when:
a) Posterior teeth are set at ridge crest
b) There is high vertical dimension
c) There is low vertical dimension
d) Posterior teeth are set outside the ridge.

11. The maxillary teeth if placed too far anteriorly and superiorly in a complete
denture result in faulty pronunciation of:
a) F and V sounds
b) S and T sounds
c) Vowels
d) Consonants
12. Initial speaking problems with new denture are usually transitory:
a) True
b) False
13. Balanced occlusion in complete denture is essential
a) For the patient to masticate properly
b) For the denture to have adequate retention
c) To ensure even pressure all over the arch, for denture stability in centric and
eccentric position
d) Balanced occlusion is not essential in complete denture

3
14. When there is a prematurity in centric occlusion but not in eccentric or other
movements then reduce
a) Cusps of the opposing teeth
b) Mesiodistal position of the teeth
c) Opposing fossa or marginal ridge
d) None of the answers are true

15. Discrepancies in the occlusion of a denture can be clearly detected from:

a) Observation of the denture in mouth
b) Masticatory efficiency
c) Clicking sounds at the TMJ
d) Remounting procedure of the denture

16. Using of pressure-indicating paste (PIP) with denture is better applied on

a) Wet surface
b) Dry denture
c) Dry denture, dry tissue
d) Dry denture, wet tissue

17. Application of pressure-indicating paste (PIP) to denture surface using

a) Finger
b) Hair camel brush in one direction
c) Syringe
d) Hair camel brush in one direction & syringe

18- Many prosthodontic instruments are available for treatment of completely and
partially edentulous patients. Hooper's jig is a prosthodontic instrument used for:

a) Clinical remounting.
b) Relining and rebasing.
c) Laboratory remounting.
d) Repair.

19- One of the techniques used for maintenance of complete denture is relining.
Relining involves many steps. Which one of the following steps is used with
relining?
a) Two dots technique.
b) Functional impression technique
c) Swenson technique.
d) Selective pressure impression technique.
20. Geriatric ill patient has old complete denture complained from crazed stained
denture. what is your treatment plan?
a) Advise him to do new denture.
b) Advise him to do denture relining.
c) Advise him to do denture duplication.
d) Dismiss the patient.

Good Luck
