According to gate control theory of pain, large fiber impulses tend to
1. Bypass the central control process
2. Inhibit the effect of painful stimuli transmitted by small fibers
3. Both the above
4. None of the above
Oral Surgery
Answer: 2
According to gate control theory of pain, large fiber impulses tend to inhibit the effect of painful stimuli transmitted by small fibers.
Advantage of chisel and mallet over bur in removing bone is
1. Less skill is needed
2. Psychologically more acceptable
3. No coolant is necessary
4. None of the above
Oral Surgery
Answer: 3
The advantage of chisel and mallet over bur in removing bone is that no coolant is necessary.
The direction of the bevel of the chisel during bone cutting is
1. Away from the bone to be sacrificed
2. Towards the bone to be sacrificed
3. Independent of the bone to be sacrificed
4. Parallel to stress lines
Oral Surgery
Answer: 2
The direction of the bevel of the chisel during bone cutting is towards the bone to be sacrificed.
An essential feature of a comminuted I fracture, is that, the
1. periosteum is intact
2. bone is fractured completely into two parts
3. overlying integument is intact
4. bone is splintered or crushed
Oral Surgery
Answer: 4
Explanation: A comminuted fracture is characterized by the bone being broken into multiple fragments. This type of fracture is often the result of high-impact trauma and can complicate treatment due to the complexity of the fracture pattern.
In peripheral nerve block, which of the following local anaesthetics has the longest duration of action?
1. Bupivacaine
2. Cocaine
3. Lignocaine
4. Prilocaine
In peripheral nerve block, the local anaesthetic with the longest duration of action is Bupivacaine.
Eburnation is seen in
1) Malunion
2) Nonunion
3) Osteomyelitis
4) Osteoradionecrosis
Oral Surgery
Answer: 2
Eburnation is the process of converting living bone tissue into a sclerotic, or hardened, avascular bone due to lack of blood supply. This can occur at the site of a nonunion, which is where a fracture fails to heal properly, and the bone ends remain separate.
For extraction of mandibular molar, anaesthesia is given to act on
1. Inferior alveolar nerve
2. Buccal nerve
3. Lingual nerve
4. Masseteric nerve
Oral Surgery
Answer: 1
For extraction of mandibular molar, anaesthesia is given to act on the inferior alveolar nerve.
Nerve membrane stabilization action of local anaesthetic agents is due to
1. Increasing conductance of potassium ions
2. Creating negative after potentials
3. Preventing conductance of Na ions from the exterior of the nerve to the intrior
4. None of the above
Oral Surgery
Answer: 3
Nerve membrane stabilization action of local anaesthetic agents is due to preventing conductance of Na ions from the exterior of the nerve to the interior.
