Gillies approach for reduction of zygomatic fractures is done through
1. Temporal fossa
2. Infra temporal fossa
3. Infra orbital fossa
4. All of the above
Oral Surgery
Answer: 1
The temporal fossa is located on the side of the skull, above the zygomatic arch and lateral to the orbit. The Gillies approach involves an incision in the temporal region to access the zygomatic bone, which is then manipulated to reduce the fracture and restore its normal anatomical position. This approach is commonly used in oral and maxillofacial surgery for the management of complex zygomatic fractures.
A contraindication to local infiltration technique
1. Hypertension
2. Diabetic patient in whom urine sugar present
3. Infection in the arch
4. Kidney problems
Oral Surgery
Answer: 3
Local infiltration is a safe and effective technique for achieving anesthesia in
most situations. However, it is contraindicated in the presence of infection in
the arch because it can spread the infection further or lead to complications
like an abscess. Hypertension and kidney problems are not direct
contraindications to local anesthesia, but they may require careful monitoring
of the patient's condition. Diabetes with urine sugar present does not directly
contraindicate the use of local anesthetics unless there are severe
complications or neuropathy involved.
The following anatomical landmarks are useful in the closed mouth approach of mandubular nerve block except
1. Occlusal plane of occluding teeth
2. Anterior border of ramus
3. Mucogingival junction of the mandibular teeth
4. A & B
Oral Surgery
Answer: 3
The closed mouth approach of mandibular nerve block relies on the anatomical
landmarks of the occlusal plane of occluding teeth and the anterior border of
the ramus. The mucogingival junction is not a relevant landmark for this
technique.
Which of the following is complication of an open fracture
1) Malunion
2) Nonunion
3) Infection
4) Crepitation
Oral Surgery
Answer: 3
An open fracture is a fracture that communicates with the outside environment, typically through a wound. This increases the risk of bacterial infection
Alpha adrenergic agonists are used in combination with local anaesthetics to
1. Increase the rate of liver metabolism of local anaesthetic
2. Increase the concentration of LA at receptor site
3. Both the above
4. None of the above
Oral Surgery
Answer: 2
Alpha adrenergic agonists are used in combination with local anaesthetics to increase the concentration of LA at receptor site.
