Vestibular extension procedure results in 
 1. Increase in width of keratinised attached gingiva
 2. Decrease in width of keratinised attached gingiva
 3. Increase in width of non-keratinised attached gingiva
 4. Decrease in width of non-keratinised attached gingiva
Periodontics Answer: 3

Vestibular extension procedure results in an increase in width of non-keratinised
attached gingiva

The vestibular extension procedure is a surgical treatment that involves the
apical movement of the vestibular mucosal tissue to increase the width of
attached gingival tissue around a tooth. This procedure typically does not alter
the width of the keratinized attached gingiva, which is the tissue that is
directly connected to the tooth surface. Instead, it primarily increases the
non-keratinized attached gingival width, which is the part of the gingival
tissue that is not directly attached to the tooth but is still important for
periodontal health and aesthetics.

The best indication for osseous grafts for bone regeneration procedure is 
 1. One-walled infrabony pockets
 2. One-walled suprabony pockets
 3. Two-walled infrabony pockets
 4. Three-walled infrabony pockets
Periodontics Answer: 4

The best indication for osseous grafts for bone regeneration procedures is three-walled infrabony pockets.

The first sequential step in osseous resection technique 
 1. Vertical grooving
 2. Radicular blending
 3. Flattening interproximal bone
 4. Gradualising marginal bone
Periodontics Answer: 1

The first sequential step in the osseous resection technique is vertical grooving.

In which of the following procedures, periodontal pack is not given 
 1. Gingivectomy
 2. GTR procedures without osseous transplants
 3. Osteoimplants with reattachment procedures
 4. Osteoplasty procedure
Periodontics Answer: 2

In periodontal surgery, a periodontal pack is not given in GTR procedures without osseous transplants.


Which of the following periodontal diseases does not have calculus:

1. ANUG.
2. Chronic adult periodontitis.
3. Juvenile periodontitis.
4. Periodontal abscess.
Periodontics Answer: 3

Juvenile periodontitis, now referred to as localized aggressive periodontitis, is characterized by the loss of periodontal attachment and bone in adolescents and young adults, often without the presence of significant calculus. This distinguishes it from other forms of periodontitis, where calculus is typically present.



Gingival curettage is the treatment of choice for

1. globulomaxillary cyst

2. bleeding gingiva

3. inflamed swollen gingiva

4. fibrous gingiva

Periodontics Answer: 3

Gingival curettage is a procedure used to remove inflamed and diseased tissue from the gingiva. It is particularly effective for treating inflamed swollen gingiva, as it helps to reduce inflammation and promote healing.

Craters in facial and lingual interdental bone are best eliminated by 
 1. Gingivectomy
 2. Osseous reconturing
 3. Osseous regeneration procedure
 4. Curettage
Periodontics Answer: 3

Craters in facial and lingual interdental bone are best eliminated by osseous regeneration procedures.


Which of the following changes occur in tissues around teeth o of function for a long time?

1. Atrophy of cementum

2. Secondary dentin deposition

3. Thickening of the periodontal ligament

4. Osteoporosis


Periodontics Answer: 4

Long-term functional changes around teeth can lead to osteoporosis in the
alveolar bone, which is characterized by a decrease in bone density. This can
affect the support of the teeth.
