MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A diastema is a space between two teeth in the same arch. When this occurs
between the maxillary central incisors, it is often the result of a pronounced labial
frenum.
a. Both statements are true.
b. The first statement is true; the second is false.
c. The first statement is false; the second is true.
d. Both statements are false.
ANS: A
A space, or lack of contact area, between any two teeth in the same arch is called a
diastema. When a diastema occurs between the maxillary central incisors, it is
often the result of a pronounced labial frenum extending to the crest of the alveolar
ridge and possibly over the ridge. This band of firm connective tissue causes the
erupting incisors to be pushed aside resulting in a diastema, or space. Correction of
a diastema usually involves surgical removal, or cutting, of the frenal tissue
between the teeth.

2. Torus palatinus is seen on the
a. Soft palate
b. Hard palate
c. Alveolar ridge
d. Oral pharynx
ANS: B
Torus palatinus is excess bone growth and occurs in the midline of the hard palate.
It may grow to varying sizes and is generally only a problem when the construction
of a maxillary denture is necessary. In health, such bony protuberances, or excess
bone growths, do not occur on the soft palate, alveolar ridge, or oral pharynx.
