172-00-1) When implants are planned and placed into deficient jaw bone, what is the main difference between Fenestration and Dehiscence bone defect?

a) There is no difference

b) Fenestration is a window type of bone defect, apical from the neck of the implant. Dehiscence is when the defect involves the neck of the implant too

c) Fenestration and Dehiscence depend on the location of the implant in the mouth

d) None of the above

172-00-4) When is the "Sausage technique" by Istvan Urban advised?

a) For staged treatment of a severe horizontal ridge atrophy with a particulate mixed bone graft and a native collagen membrane.

b) It is only advised in the treatment of class 3 severe dehiscence

c) To improve the fenestration bone defect

d) None of the above

249-00-1) Which of the following statements is true regarding Alveolar Ridge Resorption?

a) Horizontal width loss > Vertical height loss

b) Buccal bone loss > palatal bone loss

c) 2/3 of volume loss happens in the first 3 months

d) All of them are true

249-00-2) Below are mentioned the characteristics of the Thin Biotype of the alveolar ridge, which one is the exception?

a) Thinner labial plate

b) Narrower keratinized tissue width

c) Shorter distance from CEJ to the alveolar crest

d) Greater gingival translucency

287-00-2) Below some possible complications with GBR treatment are mentioned. Which could happen more frequently?

a) Premature membrane exposure

b) Nerve / vascular damage

c) Infection

d) Tooth / root damage

287-00-3) Which of the following criteria is NOT true regarding a Class I GBR complication (small membrane exposure without purulent exudate)?

a) Partial removal of membrane and closure wound

b) CHX 0.20% twice a day

c) Weekly visits

d) Immediate membrane removal

289-00-3) According to the ITI Treatment Guidelines (2013) for immediate implant placement after tooth extraction (type 1) the following clinical conditions should be satisfied. Which one is not correct?

a) Intact socket walls

b) Facial bone wall of at least 1 mm in thickness

c) Thin soft tissue biotype

d) No acute infection at the site

e) The availability of bone apical and palatal to the socket to provide primary stability

290-00-1) Select a secondary objective of implant therapy.

a) Successful outcomes from an esthetic and functional point of view

b) Esthetic outcomes with long-term stability

c) A low risk of complications during healing and during function

d) Treatment with good cost-effectiveness

295-00-1) What are the indications of the d-PTFE membrane in Guided Bone Regeneration(GBR) in implant dentistry?

a) Solely GBR combined with implant placement.

b) Solely to augment bony defects prior to implant placement.

c) In ridge preservation procedures and to augment bony defects prior to or combined with implant placement.

d) To augment bony defects prior to or combined with implant placement.

295-00-4) The preliminary results of the presented study about using the fixation suture with d-PTFE titanium reinforced membranes shows;

a) Complications do occur in more over than 60 % of all cases.

b) If an exposure occurs, the result will be sufficient bone to place an implant at a later stage.

c) The fixation suture should not be used.

d) If an exposure occurs the result will be that the whole GBR procedure has failed.

300-00-1) What are the two ways ridge augmentation can be performed?

a) tridimensional and bidimensional

b) staged and simultaneous

c) stages and non-simultaneous

d) internal and external

300-00-2) What is the first step for ridge augmentation?

a) the bone anatomy correction

b) the scaling treatment

c) the soft tissue quality

d) none of the above

300-00-3) What is important when treating horizontal bone defects?

a) to have enough cortical bone

b) to have enough cancellous bone

c) to have enough cortical and cancellous bone

321-00-4) What does it mean "Surgical approach in One Stage", when we are talking about GBR procedures in the posterior atrophic jaw? It means...

a) dental implants are placed after the GBR procedure

b) dental implants are placed at the same moment of the GBR procedure

c) short dental implants are placed without GBR procedure

d) short dental implants are placed at the same moment of the GBR procedure

321-00-5) What is the importance of doing a surgical approach in one stage in the posterior atrophic jaw? Because...

a) the membrane creates a box that follows the lingual inclination of the dental implants on this site.

b) there is no need to re entry

c) the short dental implants have higher predictability

d) alveolar bone can be reviewed before placing the dental implants

322-00-3) How much time is suggested to wait until the PTFE membrane removal after a GBR procedure and why?

a) 6 months then leave the PTFE bone ridge covered by periosteum for 4 months to create cortical bone.

b) 9 months to have a mature bone ridge

c) 9 months then leave the bone ridge covered by periosteum for 6 months to create cortical bone

d) 4 months then leave the bone ridge covered by periosteum for 5 months to create cortical bone

322-00-5) The GBR guidelines state that membrane fixation for adequate bone graft stability needs:

a) the fixing of the membrane buccally and lingually

b) tacks should be used at the mesial area

c) avoid contamination of the graft area with saliva

d) should start fixing the membrane on the lingual side

e) all of them

323-00-1) The main reason a passive flap closure is not achieved is:

a) insufficient flap release with minimal or no periosteal cut

b) damage of the lingual nerve

c) mattress sutures

323-00-4) How to achieve the periosteal brushing movement technique?

a) with the non active part of the blade, dissect the superficial part of the flap from it deeper part.

b) with the active part of the blade, dissect the superficial part of the flap.

c) with the non active part of the blade, start cutting the deeper insertion of the milohyoid muscle.

d) with the active part of the blade, start cutting the deeper insertion of the milohyoid muscle.
