Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback
A The parent may replace the tooth incorrectly, so it is best not to advise the parent
to do this.
B The parent should be told to keep the tooth moist by placing it in a saline
solution, water, milk, or a commercial tooth-preserving solution and get the child
evaluated as soon as possible.
C The tooth should be kept moist, not dry. The child should be evaluated as soon
as possible.
D Cleaning or scrubbing the tooth could damage it. It is essential for the child to
have an immediate dental evaluation.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C
Feedback
Correct These are appropriate techniques to use when trying to wake a sleepy
infant.
Incorrect This is not appropriate. The parent can rub the infant's hands or feet to
wake the infant. Applying a cold towel to the infant's abdomen may lead
to cold stress in the infant. The parent may want to apply a cool cloth to
the infant's face to wake the infant.
