Class 2 malocclusions should be treated early in C1 during mixed dentition
Class 3 malocclusions should be treated during maximum growth (C3)
Intervention to increase the vertical dimension should be performed during maximum growth (C3)
Both of the C3
class 3 and class 2
Question 2
Question
The cervical vertebrae are used to anticipate maximum growth of the mandible. Cervical stage 3 is the point at which the bodies of C3/4 are rectangular but the others are square shaped.
Answer
Both true
First true, second false
First false, second true
Both false
Question 3
Question
Julian Singer's third stage marks the onset of puberty and is indicated by calcification of the ulnar sesamoid bone. The end of growth is marked by fusion of the epiphysis and diaphysis of the radial and ulnar bones.
Answer
Both true
First true, second false
First false, second true
Both false
Question 4
Question
In females, the mandible typically stops growing between the age of 18-19. In males, the mandible typically stops growing between the age of 15-16.
Answer
Both true
First true, second false
First false, second true
Both false
Question 5
Question
The dental and skeletal ages may not match the chronological age. Skeletal age may be taken from radiographs of the hand and wrist, cervical vertebrae, and frontal sinus.
Answer
Both true
First true, second false
First false, second true
Both false
Question 6
Question
Transverse maxillary treatments are more dentoalveolar if performed before peak skeletal growth velocity. The expansion is more pronounced at the skeletal level if done during peak skeletal growth velocity.
Answer
Both true
First true, second false
First false, second true
Both false
Question 7
Question
The best window of opportunity for maxillary expansion is before the onset of puberty. The optimal window of opportunity for mandibular growth is during the peak skeletal growth velocity because the condylar growth is accelerated.
