52. The primary purpose of using a dental liner under restoration is to: a. Increase strenght of the restoration b. Insulate the pulp c. improve adhesion of the restorative material d. enhance marginal adaptation

b. Insulate the pulp

53. The best primary liner for deep cavity preparation with near pulp exposure is: a. Calcium hydroxide because it is effective in promoting secondary dentin formation b. GIC because it releases flouride that can arrest caries formation e. ZOE because it soothes the pulp

a. Calcium hydroxide because it is effective in promoting secondary dentin formation

54. A base or liner which is contraindicated beneath filled or unfilled resins: a. Glass lonomer b. calcium hydroxide c. polycarboxylate cement d. zinc oxide eugenol

d. zinc oxide eugenol

55. The action of calcium hydroxide in promoting a calcified barrier to pulp that is accidentally exposed with an open a. Calcium ions form paste precipitates to form a calcified barrier b. Creating of an alkaline environment to form a calcified barrier c. Creation of a zone of coagulation necrosis d. Creation of necrotic tissue

b. Creating of an alkaline environment to form a calcified barrier

56. Why is it important to restore proper proximal contact when restoring teeth? a. To minimize periodontal pocket formation b. To maintain the proper height of the interproximal papilla c. To maintain tha mesiodistal dimension of the tooth d. d. All of these are correct

d. All of these are correct

57. During cavity preparation pulp damage can be prevented by : a. Use of diamond burs with a brush stroke b. Use of local anesthetics c. Use of adequate air pressure d. Use of adequate water coolant

d. Use of adequate water coolant

58. In preparing class I cavity for dental amalgam, the dentist will diverge the mesial and distal walls toward the occlusal surface. The divergence serves to: a. Prevent undermining of the marginal ridges b. Provide convenience form c. Resist the forces of mastication d. Extend the preparation into areas more readily cleansed.

a. Prevent undermining of the marginal ridges

59. Varnish will not prevent discoloration of tooth by checking migration of ions into dentin, it is used to reduce microleakage and improve sealing ability of amalgam. a. 1st statement is correct, 2nd statement is incorrect b. 1st statement is incorrect, 2nd statement is correct c. both statement are correct d. both satement are incorrect

a. 1st statement is correct, 2nd statement is incorrect

60. Reasons for incorporating an enamel cavosurface bevel in preparation for bonded, direct, composite restorations: 1. Provides more surface area foe bonding 2. Allows for more preferred end on etching of the enamel rods 3. Increase retention 4. Reduce leakage 5. Provide greater potential for straightening the remaining tooth structure a. 1,2,3,4 b. 2,3,4,5 c. 1,2,3,5, d. 1,2,4,5 e. 1,2,3,4,5

e. 1,2,3,4,5
