A dentist recommends a procedure, remains on premises, and approves the work before the patient is dismissed. This is an example of what kind of dental supervision?

  1. General

  2. Direct

  3. Indirect

  4. Personal

The correct answer is: Direct

This is an example of direct dental supervision because the dentist is present and directly overseeing the procedure being performed. Options A and D are incorrect because they do not involve a dentist being present during the procedure. Option C is incorrect because indirect dental supervision would involve a dentist being available for consultation but not physically present during the procedure.
