Title: Chapter 18: Test Generator Questions
Course: DEH 2821 Medically-Compromised Patient

Q: Distoclusion (Class II) occurs when:
- the buccal groove of the mandibular first permanent molar is mesial to the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first permanent molar
- the buccal groove of the mandibular first permanent molar is distal to the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first permanent molar
- the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first permanent molar occludes with the buccal groove of the mandibular first permanent molar
- none of the above
A: the buccal groove of the mandibular first permanent molar is distal to the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first permanent molar

Q: During the exam you notice that your patient's left mandibular second premolar (20) is buccal to the maxillary left second premolar (13); this condition is called:
- overbite
- underbite
- overjet
- crossbite
A: crossbite

Q: During your exam you noticed that the incisal edges of #8 and 9 occlude with the cervical third of the facial surfaces of #24 and 25; this would be identified as:
- deep overjet
- end-to-end bite
- edge-to-edge bite
- deep overbite
- crossbite
A: deep overbite

Q: Having a prominent maxilla and a mandible positioned posterior to its normal relationship would be classified as:
- mesognathic
- crossbite
- prognathic
- retrognathic
A: retrognathic

Q: A patient who has a Class III occlusion would most likely have a profile that is:
- mesognathic
- crossbite
- prognathic
- retrognathic
A: prognathic

Q: When molars and premolars occlude cusp to cusp as viewed mesiodistally, this is classified as:
- crossbite
- edge-to-edge bite
- overjet
- end-to-end bite
A: end-to-end bite

Q: When incisor surfaces of maxillary teeth occlude with incisor surfaces of mandibular teeth as viewed mesiodistally, this is classified as:
- crossbite
- edge-to-edge bite
- overjet
- end-to-end bite
A: edge-to-edge bite

Q: When there is a lack of occlusal or incisal contact between certain maxillary and mandibular teeth because either or both have failed to reach the line of occlusion, this is classified as:
- crossbite
- overjet
- open bite
- primate space
A: open bite

Q: The horizontal distance between the labioincisal surfaces of the mandibular incisors and the linguoincisal surfaces of the maxillary incisors is:
- overjet
- overbite
- crossbite
- open bite
A: overjet

Q: The vertical distance by which the maxillary incisors overlap the mandibular incisors is classified as:
- overjet
- overbite
- crossbite
- open bite
A: overbite

Q: The determination of the classification of occlusion is based on the principles of:
- occlusion
- radiographs
- Edward Angle
- G. V. Black
A: Edward Angle

Q: A more comprehensive picture of malocclusion is made by the:
- endodontist
- periodontist
- orthodontist
- prosthodontist
A: orthodontist

Q: A primary canine relation that does not exhibit any primate spaces is classified as:
- normal occlusion
- crossbite
- open bite
- closed arches
A: closed arches

Q: Occlusal contacts that are made outside of the normal range of function in occlusion are called:
- functional contacts
- parafunctional contacts
- primary contacts
- proximal contacts
A: parafunctional contacts

Q: The purpose of a proximal contact is:
- to prevent food impaction
- to stabilize the position of teeth in the dental arch
- to prevent drifting
- all of the above
A: all of the above
