happy and prosperous new year to all.

for prelims we know that odell,bouchers and clinical dentistry handbook are a must.like that ....
does anyone know of any recommended books to study from for clinicals?
do reply.

 

[Cacaums]

That is a good question. The clinical is a mistery for me. I will attend the march preliminar(2008) and I haven't thought about the clinical yet.
Hope you can find out.

[Cacaums]

cacaums, how will you study in the rest 2 months ?

I will try to review the mcq and go back to books to clear any doubts. Also read Odell e Oxford hand book. I have been reading the Dental decks and I found helpfull. I guess we don't have much time to walk around anymore, we just need to focus on the exam itself. 🙄
How about yourself?

[Doctormelbourne]

hey friends m very happy today as i got odell.🙂
now plz plz plz tell me how should i start reading the book,As this is my first book to start with for preparing ADC exams.

I think the answer is 'canellous bone graft' as the cancellous/spongy bone has rich blood supply than that of the cortical/compact and so greater osteogenic potential.

The MOST stable area to evaluate the craniofacial growth is:

A. Nasal floor
B. Cranial vault
C. Occlusal plane
D. Naso maxillary complex
E. Anterior cranial base

Is it D?

people always say such things and make other people scared but instead of concentrating on such rumours, we all should believe in our hard work,determination and devotion to our goals.

hi dr. melbourne

it is good to be a part of this forum.

I'm intrested in the material for ADC prelim. I'm preparing for ADC part I and m taking it up in March '08.

I learnt for the previous post that you have already cleared you part I, if you could help me with MCQ's and short notes from the past ADC exams (are the MCQ's solved with reasoning. Are the appropriate answers provided for the Short Answer Questions (SAQ's).)

your help will be appriciated and I can help you out with some clinical material that I have with me, it is soft copy that I have.

Thanks & Kind Regards,

according to me it should be the anterior cranial base..as u can can measure it from broadbent point..you need atleast one stable point to keep as reference so dat u can evaluate..the diff or study the cranio facial growth pattern..since the question is to evaluate growth..the ans acc to me should be ant cranial base..can look into reference to support this..

 

[alldent]

I think the answer is 'canellous bone graft' as the cancellous/spongy bone has rich blood supply than that of the cortical/compact and so greater osteogenic potential.

Dr. Melbourne

i would like to bring one point into notice..ostoegenic, osteogenetic are 2 different things..so make sure what has been asked in the exam..the answers could vary..the chapter in carranza has a very detailed explanation on this..so pls read it in detail..i think its a imp question..as in my sept exam..i found perion the most tuff..i had read c arranza but think that certain things needed more attention..like certain topics..on root recession..

4) question bank/1060 MCQs
5) Cowson for MCQs

I will much appreciate if you can send me the soft copy of clincial exam material on [email protected]

Is it D?

well the answer to this question is definetly E.
as we relate the maxilla and mandible with the cranial base to verify from a radiograph whether if the maxilla(SNA) or mandile(SNB) is prognathic or retrognathic
as we ALWAYS RELATE OUR READINGS WITH THE MOST STABLE AREA WHICH IS ANTERIOR CRANIAL BASE
i need the oet material plus prelimanary questions
if any one can send it to me please do help! THANKS

Hi
Odell is actually a book which is very useful for attempting preliminary SQAs. the actual title of the book is " clinical problem solving in dentistry" . the author is W. D. odell. it has got 56 clinical case studies.
This book is avaliable in melbourne uni book shop. i bought it for 101/- dollars and now i think it is 115/-. and nobody is going to give it to you for free because everybody needs it even for the clinical,so better buy it lol.

Hi
ofocurse OTc is the best but expansive. AIDER is also good but not like OTC as you don't work on actualy patients like otc.
I think you be able to clear the clincial exam even without these course if you have done or doing clinical practice. or alternitively if you are in australia, you should work as a dental assistant to have the oppertunity to observe the clinical dentistry here.
+ everybody knows his abilities,skills and confidance. what i mean is that may be you are confidant enough to go for the clinical without any courses.

in speaking part of oet exam, we are given a role play card. Im just wondering : how many minutes do we have to read this card before starting our concersation/?
thank u very much in advance

i read my cards for about 1-2 min and then i looked up and everytime i was asked if iam ready. i think if you need more time its ok as well. was a very relaxed atmosphere. just concentrate on reading and when you think you are ready look up or tell.

thank u very much in advance

Hi
Officially,you will get five minutes to read the role play cards before you strat the test. But you will be able to read it even just in 2 or 3 minutes. The exminer will always ask you if you are ready or not and if you are not , you can ask for a minute again. The envirnoment is very relaxing but you have to be confidant and just think that you are actually dealing with the patient in a clinic or hospital and you are in authority not the exminer. By acting like an actual doctor and not like an exam candidate, you will look more confident to the examiner.
Don't concentrate much on the medical aspect of the test e.g. correct history and diagnosis and treatment etc. as the exminer is not a dentist. Try to concentrate on fluency, accent, grammer and vocabulary. Keep talking.
Best of luck with your exam.
Cheers
Dr. Melbourne
