Q-1) Write true (T) or false (F) in the following sentences: ( mark15)

1. The most important morphological or histological consideration in cavity preparation

in primary teeth is the thickness of enamel and dentin ( T ).

3. Untrue about pit and fissure sealant ,it is indicated in teeth with deep pit and fissures
with interproximal caries( T ).

extraction( F ).

walls should converge toward the occlusion ( T ).
8. The best appointments for dental treatment of children are after exhaustion from
playing and Lack of sleep ( F ).
9. The axio-pulpal line angle in class II cavity preparation should be beveled to reduce the
concentration of stresses ( T ).
10. In badly behaves children, Given a small gift to the child at the begging of every visit is
a correct strategy of behavior management ( T ).
11. Stretching the tissues prior to the insertion of the needle, will result in easier and less
painful penetration ( T ).
12. Lower primary molars cannot be anesthetized by infiltration anesthesia due to the
dense mandublar bone ( F ).
13. It is indicated to extract teeth in children having In acute and/or chronic infection ( F ).
14. Dens invaginatus is a deep surface invagination of crown lined by enamel, while dens
evaginatus is a cusp like elevation of enamel in central groove( T ).
