1. C. Mandibular second premolar displaced bucally
Because, mandbular second molar erupts after the second
premolar and also bucal displacement is more common than
lingual displacement.
2. A. Stress importance of good oral hygiene
Fixed orthodontic appliances make maintenance of oral hygiene

15. C. More than 50% of preschool children
16. B. Early mobilization
Fortunately, most jaw fractures in preadolescent children can be
treated with little or no surgical manipulation of the segments
and little immobilization of jaws, because the bony segments

34. D. Postural position
35. C. Diffuse calcification of pulp
Devitalisation of teeth occurs when there is previous history of
trauma to the tooth or there is poor control of orthodontic force.
Root remodeling is constant feature of orthodontic tooth
movement but permanent loss of tooth structure would occur
only if repair did not replce the initially resorbed cementum, as
with heavy forces.If heavy forces are used to extrude a tooth
quickly, it is traumatic and can lead to ankylosis and/ or
resorption.
36. A. As early as possible

slightly outwards. More width is gained in the maxilla than in
the mandible.
54. D. Bilateral balance in both centric and eccentric
movement
55. C. Leeway space
At the time E’s are lost, both the max. and mand. Molar tend to
shift mesially into Leeway space, the mand. Molar normally
moves more forward tha its maxillary counterpart.This
differential movement is important for smooth transition of
flush terminal plane relationship in primary dentition to Class I
molar relationship in permanent dentition.
56. C. Cleidocranial dysostosis
57. C. Second molars
58. A. To redirect mandibular growth in skeletal class III
malocclusion with anterior open bite
Chin is rotated down and back and this way worsen anterior
open bite , Cases with only short vertical height are ideal
patients for chin cap.
59. A. Bilateral expansion of the maxillary arch
Prolonged sucking often produces mildly narrow max. arch and
tendency towards Bilateral cross bite. This condition is usually
associated with shift of the mandible to one side on closure to
gain better function.
60. C. Maxillary expansion appliance
61. C. Posterior teeth are 2 to 3 mm apart
It is indicated in deepbite pts. Where it is required to correct
deep bite by extrusion of posteriors. This is allowed so by

64. A. 90° ± 5°
According to TWEED, this is recommended for enhanced
stability.
65. D. After eruption of upper canines
The space tends to close as permanent canine erupts. As a
general guideline, a maxillary central diastema of 2 mm or less
will spontaneously tend to close, while total closure of diastema
initially greater than 2 mm is unlikely
66. A. Flush terminal plane
Flush terminal plane is normal relation of primary molars. If
the child has FTP in mixed dentition, about 3.5 mm of lower
molar forward relative to upper molar is required for smooth
transition of Flush terminal plane to Class I molar relation in
permanent dentition.

Andrews during 1970’s put forward six key to normal
occlusion. These are:
1) Molar Inter arch relationship
2) Mesiodistal crown angulation- The gingival part of long axis
of the crown must be distal to the occlusal part.
3) Labio-lingual crown inclination- If the gingival area of
crown is more lingually placed than the occlusal area it is
referred to as positive crown inclination and vice-versa.
4) Absence of rotation
5) Tight contacts between adjacent teeth
6) Curve of space-should be flat not exceeding 1.5mm

Many of the orthodontic problems of cleft palate children in the
late and early mixed dentition result not from the cleft itself,
but from the effects of surgical repair. Although the techniques
for repair of cleft lip and palate have improved tremendously in
recent years, closure of the lip inevitably creates some
constriction across the anterior part of the maxillary arch, and
closure of a cleft palate causes at least some degree of lateral
constriction.

93. A. 6 to 7 years
94. C. Intrusion
95. B. Lingually inclined maxillary incisors
96. B. Baker’s anchorage
97. B. Retroclined
The reason is found in the concept of "dental compensation for
skeletal discrepancy." This can occur naturally as well as being
created by orthodontic camouflage treatment. In mandibular
prognathism, for instance, as the individual grows the upper
incisors tend to protrude while the lower incisors incline
lingually. By the time growth is completed, the dental
discrepancy usually is smaller than the jaw discrepancy. Tooth
position has compensated at least partially for the jaw
discrepancy.

121. A. Acrylic plate
122. A. Flattening
123. C. Long and narrow
Altered respiratory pattern, such as breathing through the
mouth rather than the nose, could change the posture of the
head, jaw, and tongue. This in turn could alter the equilibrium
of pressures on the jaws and teeth and affect both jaw growth
and tooth position. In order to breathe through the mouth, it is
necessary to lower the mandible and tongue, and extend (tip
back) the head. If these postural changes were maintained, face
height would increase, and posterior teeth would super-erupt;
unless there was unusual vertical growth of the ramus, the
mandible would rotate down and back, opening the bite
anteriorly and increasing overjet; and increased pressure from
the stretched cheeks might cause a narrower maxillary dental
arch.
124. B. An arch length deficiency
Loss of primary canine may be due to either ectopic eruption of
lateral incisor which indicates lack of enough space for all
permanent incisor or may resul from an abberant path of lateral
incisor.

166.C. At the center of resistance
Center of resistance- Point analogous to the centers of gravity.
Generally it is constant.In single root it lies between one third
and one half of the root apical to alveolar crest.
In multi rooted tooth it lies 1-2 mm apical to furcation
167. B. Gingival group of fibers
Principal fibers of the periodontal ligament rearranges
themselves quite rapidly to the position in about 4 weeks.The
supra-alveolar gingival fiber take as much as 40 weeks to
rearrange around the new position and thus predispose to
relapse.
168. C. Light and continuous
Use of continuous light force is recommended to be applied for
adult group of patient rather than intermittent force as applied
by removable appliance. This is because continuous forces are
expected to bring about direct resorption of the root socket.
They should hence not occlude more than a small percentage of
blood vessels with in the periodontal ligament, not substantially
interfere with their nutritional supply and little interference
with normal biologic functioning. In adult due to heavy force
teeth may devitalize because the opening into the tooth (apical
foramen) is smaller and blood vessels can be easily disrupted.

IC width serves as safety valve for dominant horizontal basal
mandibular growth spurt.
170. A. First and second branchial arch and tissue
surrounding the forebrain
171. A. 45 separated bones
172. B. Lack of interdental spaces
The possibility that a distal step would become class II is very
real, and this not self correcting problem. When the central
incisors erupt, these teeth use up essentially all of the excess
space in the normal primary dentition. With the eruption of the
lateral incisors, space becomes tight in both arches. Normal
child will go through a transitory stage of mandibular incisor
crowding at age 8 to 9 even if there will eventually be enough
room to accommodate all the permanent teeth in good
alignment. In other words, a period when the mandibular
incisors are slightly crowded is a normal developmental stage.
Continued development of the arches improves the spacing
situation, and by the time the canine teeth erupt, space is once
again adequate.
173. C. Superior constrictor
174. B. 150 to 500 pounds
During masticatory function, the teeth and periodontal
structures are subjected to intermittent heavy forces. Tooth
contacts last for 1 second or less; forces are quite heavy,
ranging from 1 or 2 kg while soft substances are chewed up to
as much as 50 kg against a more resistant object. When a tooth
is subjected to heavy loads of this type, quick displacement of
the tooth within the PDL space is prevented by the
incompressible tissue fluid. Instead, the force is transmitted to
the alveolar bone, which bends in response.

Wolf’s law of transformation of bone-Bone unlike other
connective tissues responds to mild degrees of pressure and
tension, by changes in its form. This may take place on the
surface of the bone under periosteum, or in the case of
cancellous bone on the surface of the trabeculae, or on the walls
of marrow spaces or air sinuses. It has been found that bone is
formed in just the quanitity and shape that will enable it to
withstand the physical demands made upon it, with the
greatest amount of economy of structure. This is the basis
of Wolff’s law.
