Hey Mitch.
I'd say
1.b (Enamel=Supra gingival calculus, Root=Subgingival claculus. The other 2 choices are obvious),
2.c (not sure, even though i've worked with N2O a lot. N2O has nothing to do with WBS's in the case of Luekemia, also N2O has no dependance tendency so b. is also crossed out, and the first INDICATION for N2O is infact dental anxiety so d. also is not an option. N2O also binds reversibly to Hemoglobin in RBC's, temporarily occupying most of the O2 binding sites, which may trigger an asthmatic attack in prone patients - ones with mild or moderate asthma. So answer c. seems logical),
3.a (I can say that I am pretty sure about this one).
Let me know what the correct answers are.
Good Luck.

Thanks Nile for the well explained answer.Could anyone tell me which is the most common oral cancer(not sq cell ca)and also which is the most common Salivary Gland Tumor?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I wanted to start working on part 2 as well...but I dont know where exactly to look for the material ...and suggestions?

Thanks Nile for the well explained answer.Could anyone tell me which is the most common oral cancer(not sq cell ca)and also which is the most common Salivary Gland Tumor?
Thanks in advance.

according to my knowledge..scc is the most commont type of oral cancer...followed by lymphoma then salivary gland malignancies. I think the most common type of salivary gland tumour is the pleomorphic adenoma, 70% of cases

thanks GKT Shafer says that solid undifferentiated is 4.5%then mucoepidermoid is 4 and adenoid cystic is 3.2 ansd acinic is 2.9.(these are stats for SG ca )

c. cementoenamel junction
d. cement pulpal junction

repeated asking of questions by a child indicates
a. curiosity of the child
b. interest in the procedure
c. trying to delay the procedure

Hey MITCH
I would say 1. b and 2. c
If you need any explanations, let me know.

 

[mitch74]

Hi, Thank u for the answers.
I agree more with NilebBDS. Thank u again.

1.Larger condensers and laterally applied condensation forces are recommended to ensure complete condensation of which of the following amalgam types?
a. admixed
b. spherical
c. lathe-cut
d. high-copper
e. conventional

1.Larger condensers and laterally applied condensation forces are recommended to ensure complete condensation of which of the following amalgam types?
a. admixed
b. spherical
c. lathe-cut
d. high-copper
e. conventional

the ans is b. spherical becz sperical amalgam requires less condensation forces when compared to other types as well as the size of the condensor working point is inversely propotional to the forces applied.

Hi,

I am planning to take part 2 this summer. I would also like to join the group. Thanks

 

[NileBDS]

Hi, Thank u for the answers.
I agree more with NilebBDS. Thank u again.

Thanks Mitch74.
Just for clarification purposes, since we have a slight confusion;
The radiographic apex (absolute apex) is always 1-2 mm apical to the anatomical apex (Cemento-Dentinal junction). The anatomical apex, is usually were you want your prep/filling to end, in avoidance of overpreps/fills and violating the apical constriction hence loosing the apical seal.

As for the second question, I can't really explain it. It is just child behavior and psychology.
Good luck all.

I'm not sure about this one, but if I were to take a guess in the dark, I would say c. lathe-cut.

Congrats on your exam MKOT !
I'm sure you will do just fine.
Although, I would agree and disagree with you.
Any preparation is good preparation, SPECIALLY with part II. Part I is basically memorizing lots of Junk ! No thinking is really involved, except maybe on dental anatomy and occlusion.
Part II is were your knowledge and experience really pay off ! Specially on the second day.
However, I agree that most study aids will not adequately prepare you for the clinical cases, but I guess that is one of the exams challenges. They need your case judgement and thinking logic. You are faced with new cases everyday in practise, and it is only natural for them to simulate such scenarios in the clinical based questions.
I remember that I had a case on day 2 of a 10 year old with a cleft (hard) palate and lip. They needed us to treatment plan his ortho visits, and serial extractions in addidtion to the chioce ortho appliances. Yeah right, go look for that in the decks !
Good Luck, and have a safe trip buddy ! You'll be just fine !

hey nilebds,
thanks . iam on the road of part 2 preparation.

hey mitch,
thanks for asking questions . it really helps me for my preparation. keep posting some more questions.

 

[Stelon]

I want to know the reason of the answer of following question.

Que: the dentist plans to place a crown on a patient’s maxillary canine. altering the existing canine-guided occlusion in a right lateral excursive movement to that of a group function will result in which of the following?
1. greater clearance on the left side –less potential for a non-working contact
2. less clearance on the left side-greater potential for a non-working contact
3. No effect on the non-working side clearance.

the answer is 2. why? this is asked in released papers of asda.
thanks for the help in advance.

My fragile head hurts just by reading the question (specially canine guidance part). I'll try reading it again later, and give my best shot ! Long day ...

Hi mkot, u r rite no prep materials have those cases.And u sure do need clinical judgement to answer those.

 

[bridge]

Hi

I may not be right but giving it a shot.
Whenthe patient had canine guided occlusion the disocclusion on lateral excursive is more and the teeth move further apart. When u change the same to group function more teeth contact and the disocclusion is less coz now u may contact the premolar before. So you will have more chances of non-working prematurities.

I hope I have not confused you even more.

Hi mkot
I just took my part I today, your advices was so helpful for me on part I, but I have no idea about how I took the test, there was alot of tests which I couldn't decide to choose the right answer anyway what are the study materials for part II and how long did you study for that, how much time do I need for that test?
thanks and good luck for everything

 

[mina_dds]

Hi guys
Is Kaplan review book helpful for part II?

 

[anjoliey]

[32Dentist]

Hey guys,

Can anyone please tell me - if there are some wrong answers in released question papers. Because I m getting very much confused in some of the questions .

 

[degol]

Hi guys!

I have been following all discusions very thoroughly. For part II preparation I can recommend decks (I have 2004), released papers and reprints of previous tests. I also have Kaplan book, but I don`t find it to be very useful.

I have part II exam on 23rd and 24th of May. I`m not familiar with computer testing, since I took part I paper based. Please, If anyone have any experience about the procedure concerning computer testing write about it - timing, answering etc.

Any help would be very useful to blind man!

Thanx

 

[dentistjas]

Hello all,

I want to start my prep for part 2.
What would one need other than decks and kap books? I also learned from Rahmed that question papers are needed too.
It would be very nice if some one could give me a list of prep material I need to collect. I really want to take my part 2 by july. Time is very less and I work full time.....Oh gosh i am getting so anxious.
I have not got in any school this year so want to take part 2 atleast

Thanking in anticipation.
