18. A clinical diagnosis based upon subjective and objective findings that the inflammation should
resolve and the pulp return to normal is….. - reversible pulpitis
19. A clinical diagnosis based on subjective and objective findings indicates that the inflamed pulp is
incapable of healing. Additional descriptions: thermal pain, spontaneous pain, reffered pain. The
diagnosis is: - symptomatic irreversible pulpitis
20. Inflammation, usually of the apical periodontium, produces clinical symptoms including painful
response to biting and percussion. It may or may not be associated with an apical radioluscent area. This
diagnostic category is symptomatic apical periodontitis. -True
21. An inflammatory reaction to pulpal infection and necrosis characterized by rapid onset, spontaneous
pain, tenderness of the tooth to pressure, pus formation and swelling of associated tissues. This clinical
diagnostic category is: - Acute apical abscess
