Definition 1 of 129
An area specific curet with a complex, extended shank
Rationale: These modifications facilitate instrumentation in these hard to access areas. Complex
shanks are bent in two planes (front to back and side to side) to reach around the crown of
posterior teeth; Extended, or long functional shanks are used on both the crown and the root
allowing for subgingival access not provided by short shanks.

Removing subgingival calculus deposits from the distal of terminal molars would be BEST
accomplished using:
,Term 2 of 129
Which of the following is not an assessment tool for caries?
CAMBRA
diagnodent
Dexis carie vu
radiograph
Term 3 of 129
Tooth #19 has significant recession of the gingival margin. If there were light tobacco stain on the
root surface, what would be the BEST way to remove it?
Use a straight slim diameter ultrasonic tip with light overlapping strokes
Do not remove the stain because it is not visible when the patient smiles and stain does not
contribute to periodontal disease or dental caries
use a rigid gracey 11/12 curet with light pressure
Use an air polisher with glycine or erythritol

, Definition 6 of 129
Close the face of the working end and insert, adapt toe-third apical to deposit, adjust and
stabilize grasp, apply lateral pressure, activate pulling stroke coronally with hand-forearm
activation
Rationale: Closing the blade for insertion is the first step of subgingival calculus removal.
Adapting the toe-third only, at the appropriate angulation apical to the deposit will help to ensure
a strong removal stroke. Adjusting and stabilizing the grasp prior to activation will ensure the most
effective lateral pressure, and help reduce burnishing, as will activating a hand-forearm pulling
stroke.
The aura appears during which phase of convulsive seizures?
a. Tonic
b. Clonic
c. Postictal
d. Preictal
Correct sequence in steps for executing a subgingival calculus removal stroke?

a. 2
b. 3-4
c. 5-6
d. 7
e. 9
What assessment classification is used to screen this population?
a. type 1 I
b. type 2 II
c. type 3 III
d. type 4 IV
