1.

More difficult clinical situations can be tackled using new Captek B&I (Bridge & Implant) because:

  a. it contains much more gold than traditional Captek™
  b. the density of Captek B&I has been increased 33%
  c. both a and b
  d. none of the above
     
2.
 Which is/are true:
  a.

an all ceramic crown will always win an esthetic “shoot-out” compared to any PFM crown
  b.

except for tooth numbers 8 and 9, Captek crowns may be judged to be more esthetic than all ceramic crowns

  c. a platinum-palladium skeleton infused with 97% pure gold combine to give Captek a vital appearance
  d. all are true
   
3.
 Looking at the first clinical case:
  a. a 2-unit flipper was replaced with fixed crown and bridge
  b.

the patient wanted something quicker than implants
  c. the destructive wear of end-to-end occlusion, and bringing the teeth out to Class-I, was shown
  d. all of the above are true
   
4.
 For the above case, it was shown that following the outline of the free marginal gingiva, around the tooth:
  a. is seldom possible on the lingual
  b. with a round bur, followed step-one of the reverse preparation technique, which was breaking contacts
  c. is considered to be a poor method of margin formation
  d. all of the above
   
5.
 Some practice tips that were discussed include:
  a.

when lengthening teeth, measuring to provide 2 mm of occlusal reduction from the desired tooth length
  b. use of depth cuts to provide crowns that are not opaque, bulky or “bucky”
  c. use of new, sharp burs, for quick, more aggressive tooth removal, to avoid the risk of pulpal damage
  d. all of the above
   
6.
 When using Captek B&I for both bridges and crowns for Patient #2:
  a. the patient wanted a no-prep veneer on tooth #9 to match the #6-#8 bridge and #10 crown
  b. a fiber post and an Accor matrix crown form was used to build up a tooth with inadequate vertical dimension
  c. both a and b
  d. none of the above
   
7.
 For Patient #3’s 12-unit Captek B&I bridge case, the following were discussed or demonstrated, except:
  a. a 3-unit anterior flipper and old PFMs were replaced
  b.

the master impression was taken on the second appointment to allow time for the gingiva to heal
  c. the use of a custom tray to take a full arch impression
  d.

all of the above were discussed or demonstrated

   
8.

For the above case, which of the following is/are true:
  a. a 12-unit, splinted lab-fabricated temporary bridge was relined with methyl methacrylate
  b.

 a clear prep-guide was used to help achieve proper reduction, parallelism and a passive fit
  c. both a and b
  d. none of the above
   
9.
 Referring to the last case, Patient #4’s 12-unit bridge—first molar to first molar—in both questions 9 and 10:
  a. the patient, a dental technician, was dissatisfied with the size and shape of her old bridge
  b. lab-fabricated temporaries were placed in three segments to help maintain vertical dimension of occlusion
  c. both a and b
  d. none of the above
   
10.
 All of the following were discussed or demonstrated in the presentation, except:
  a. the two-cord technique and the judicious use of epinephrine
  b. the use of anatomic-shaped Comprecaps for compression and thoughts about drying-out teeth
  c. the use of a low speed handpiece
  d. both b and c
