- A . Buccal root recession
- B . Thin attached gingival tissue
- C . Loss of interdental papilla
- D . Localized alveolar ridge defect
When utilizing an acellular dermal matrix as a graft material in covering exposed root surfaces, which of the following is BEST to completely cover the area?
- A . An envelope flap
- B . A double papillae graft
- C . A free gingival graft
- D . A coronally positioned flap
When preparing for posterior porcelain to zirconia crown, the recommended occlusal reduction should be:
- A . 1.0 mm.
- B . 1.5 mm.
- C . 2.0 mm.
- D . 2.5 mm.
Which of the following is a disadvantage of subepithelial connective tissue (CT) grafting?

- B . Primary closure of the donor site
- C . Two surgical sites
- D . Change in amount of keratinized tissue
A patient presents with an endodontically treated tooth fractured subgingivally within 2.0 mm of the crestal bone.
Considering this, the MOST appropriate treatment would be to:
- A . Prepare the tooth no more than 2.0 mm from the crestal bone.
- B . Place a post, core, and full-coverage restoration.
- C . Adjust the gingival height of the fractured tooth and the adjacent teeth.
- D . Erupt orthodontically, complete fiberotomy, and restore.
How is tissue guidance for implants BEST accomplished?
- A . By placing an over-sized healing abutment following second stage surgery
- B . By placing an anatomically correct screw retained provisional following second stage surgery
- C . By placing an over-sized healing abutment four to six weeks after second stage surgery
- D . By placing an anatomically correct removable provisional four to six weeks after second stage surgery
Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) can BEST be accomplished using:
- A . freeze-dried bone allograft without a barrier.
- B . autogenous bone with a barrier.
- C . mineralized freeze-dried bone allograft.
- D . mineralized freeze-dried bone with a barrier.
When a connective tissue graft is placed over an anterior implant site, it is BEST to:
- A . use a stayplate or a "flipper" as a temporary to direct healing.
- B . bond a temporary tooth to the adjacent teeth to keep pressure off the site.
- C . place the permanent restoration as fast as possible.
- D . prepare a fixed temporary to develop proper tissue contour.
In comparing the use of electrosurgery lasers, and scalpels to achieve the desired gingival modification around implants:
- A . scalpels are safe, provide minimal hemostasis, and the least amount of gingival recession following surgery.
- B . electrosurgery units are safe, provide excellent hemostasis, and the least amount of gingival recession following surgery.
- C . scalpels are safe, provide excellent hemostasis, and the least amount of gingival recession following surgery.
- D . lasers are safe, provide excellent hemostasis, and the least amount of gingival recession following surgery.
Ridge collapse following extraction is likely to create which of the following types of defect?
- A . Apico-coronal
- B . Buccolingual
- C . Both apico-coronal and buccolingual
- D . Tissue loss
