    The document contains multiple choice questions about dental topics. The key points summarized are: 1) The appropriate initial treatment for a 4mm carious exposure on a vital permanent first molar of a 7 year old child would be to perform a pulpotomy. 2) When removing an impression from the oral cavity, if material falls in the throat, the patient should be instructed to continue coughing. 3) In a healthy patient with an acute localized periodontal abscess, initial treatment must include scaling and root planing.
