MULTIPLE CHOICE
| a. | larynx. |
| b. | pharynx. |
| c. | soft palate. |
| d. | hard palate. |
ANS: C
The gag reflex is elicited by stimulation of the sensitive tissues of the soft palate.

| b. | involuntary; cessation |
| c. | voluntary; cessation |

| a. | Maxillary premolar |
| b. | Maxillary molar |
| c. | Mandibular premolar |
| d. | Mandibular molar |
ANS: B
The maxillary molar receptor placement is most likely to elicit the gag reflex.

| a. | 1, 2, 3 |
| b. | 2, 1, 3 |
| c. | 2, 3, 1 |
| d. | 3, 1, 2 |
ANS: A
Anterior, premolar, and then molar receptor placement would represent the suggested sequence for a patient who is likely to gag.

MSC: NBDHE, 3.0 Planning and Managing Dental Hygiene Care
| a. | Slide the receptor along his palate. |
| b. | Slowly place the receptor in his mouth to avoid stimulating his gag reflex. |
| c. | Let the patient get used to each receptor placement, and wait 20 seconds before exposing the receptor. |
| d. | Put your finger on the tissue where the receptor will be placed to demonstrate the receptor placement. |
ANS: D
Sliding the receptor along the palate stimulates this sensitive area and causes the gag reflex. Suggestions to avoid stimulating the gag reflex include demonstrating receptor placement in the area where the receptor will be placed to desensitize the tissue. The longer the receptor placement takes, the more likely the patient is to gag.
