Oman Medical Specialty Board Dental Hygiene - FAQ Sample Questions

Which of the following can cause gingivitis to occur?





Correct Answer:
build up of plaque. 


gingivitis is a common and mild form of gum disease (periodontal disease) that causes irritation, redness, and swelling (inflammation) of your gingiva, the part of your gum around the base of your teeth. it is important to take gingivitis seriously and treat it promptly. gingivitis can lead to much more serious gum disease called periodontitis and tooth loss.

the most common cause of gingivitis is the buildup of plaque on the teeth. plaque is a sticky, colorless film composed primarily of bacteria. when sugars and starches in food interact with bacteria normally found in your mouth, plaque forms on your teeth and gums. if plaque is not removed by regular brushing and flossing, it can harden into tartar, also called calculus, at the base of your teeth near the gums. tartar makes plaque more difficult to remove, creates a protective shield for bacteria, and causes irritation along the gumline.

buildup of plaque is the correct answer to the question about what can cause gingivitis. this buildup leads to an immune response which causes the gum inflammation characteristic of gingivitis. if not removed, plaque can spread below the gum line, leading to infections and potentially more severe gum diseases and tooth decay.

other factors contributing to gingivitis include improper oral hygiene, smoking, genetic predisposition, certain medications, compromised immunity (such as in diabetes), and hormonal changes in the body. however, the primary and most common cause is the buildup of plaque. therefore, maintaining good oral hygiene, including regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups, is essential to prevent gingivitis.

frequent flossing, over brushing, or mineral buildup are not direct causes of gingivitis. while aggressive brushing can damage the gums and enamel, leading to other dental issues, it does not cause gingivitis directly. mineral buildup, referred to as tartar or calculus, typically forms from existing plaque that has not been adequately removed and can exacerbate the condition, but is not a primary cause. frequent flossing is recommended to help remove plaque and prevent gingivitis, not a cause of it.

A significant difference between deciduous and permanent dentition is:





Correct Answer:
deciduous teeth are smaller.
the question asks to identify a significant difference between deciduous teeth (commonly known as baby or milk teeth) and permanent teeth (adult teeth). the correct answer to this question is that deciduous teeth are smaller than permanent teeth.

deciduous teeth are the first set of teeth that develop in young children. typically, a full set of deciduous teeth consists of 20 teeth. these teeth start appearing around the age of six months and continue to emerge until about the age of three years. deciduous teeth are indeed smaller in size compared to permanent teeth. this is because the jaw size of infants and young children is smaller and continues to grow, necessitating a set of smaller teeth that are proportionate to their current jaw size.

in contrast, permanent teeth are those that replace the deciduous teeth as children grow older. generally, humans develop a set of 32 permanent teeth, which begin to emerge around the age of six years and can continue to come in until the late teens or early twenties with the arrival of the wisdom teeth. permanent teeth are larger, reflecting the larger size of the adult jaw and the need for more robust teeth for efficient chewing and biting functions as the individual matures.

another point of difference, though not the correct answer to the original question, is that deciduous teeth have shallower roots compared to permanent teeth. this characteristic facilitates their eventual natural fall-out process, allowing them to be replaced by permanent teeth. the deeper roots of permanent teeth provide them with greater stability, suitable for a lifetime of use.

understanding these differences is important from a dental health perspective, as it helps in anticipating dental development stages and potential issues that might arise during these transitions, such as the alignment of teeth, timing of teeth emergence, and overall oral hygiene practices suitable for each dental stage.
