periodontics - 3 Questions

1
Periodontics
All are true of apically positioned flap except 
 1. Increases clinical crown length
 2. Preserves the width of attached gingiva
 3. Eliminates pockets
 4. More commonly done on palatal side

📠Explanation:

The apically positioned flap is a surgical procedure in periodontology used to reduce pocket depths and increase the width of attached gingiva.

It increases the clinical crown length by exposing more tooth structure. 

It preserves the width of the attached gingiva, which is a key advantage of the procedure.
 
It is effective at eliminating or reducing periodontal pockets. 

The procedure is most commonly performed on the buccal (cheek) and lingual (tongue) sides of the teeth where there is sufficient attached gingiva, not the palatal side, as the anatomy of the palate (presence of palatal rugae and greater palatine neurovascular bundle) makes it less suitable for this specific technique.

The finger rest established on tooth surfaces on the opposite side of the same arch is known as 
1. Conventional finger rest
2. Opposite arch finger rest
3. Cross-arch finger rest
4. Finger-on-finger rest

📠Explanation:

The finger rest established on tooth surfaces on the opposite side of the same arch is known as cross-arch finger rest.

Periodontics
Secondary occlusal traumatism is least likely to be associated with
1. inflamed gingiva
2. bruxism
3. tooth mobility
4. migration of teeth

📠Explanation:

Secondary occlusal trauma primarily relates to occlusal discrepancies or effects on tooth mobility due to periodontal attachment loss rather than localized gingival inflammation alone.
