The science, at the chair. One decision at a time.
Foundation knowledge applied to diagnosis, treatment planning and oral health management — the general dentist’s board, written as the patient-centred decisions it asks for.
A non-vital mandibular molar is asymptomatic. On examination there is a small pimple-like stoma on the attached gingiva that intermittently drains pus; a gutta-percha cone traced to the apex of this tooth. What is the most likely diagnosis?
a chronic apical abscess is an inflammatory reaction to pulpal necrosis with gradual onset, little or no discomfort, and the intermittent discharge of pus through an associated sinus tract (the stoma seen on the gingiva). "Acute apical abscess" is incorrect because an acute apical abscess is painful with rapid onset and swelling and does not present with an established draining sinus tract. "Symptomatic apical periodontitis" is incorrect because symptomatic apical periodontitis presents with percussion and biting pain but not a draining sinus tract or purulent discharge. "Condensing osteitis" is incorrect because condensing osteitis is a radiopaque bone reaction without pus formation or a draining sinus tract.
Every question is a patient decision.
The INBDE is 500 questions over two days, pass/fail. Every question here carries its clinical section and its content domain, so you see whether the gap is the science or the decision.

Five things built for the general dentist.
Every plan opens everything. These are the five that matter most for this exam, shown the way you’ll meet them.
Twelve practice papers of 200
The real paper is 500 questions, 400 of them scored. Our practice papers are 200 items. Every item is tagged to the JCNDE Domain of Dentistry, so your score is reported area by area. 2,220 original questions in all, counted once.
- Timed, or in tutor mode explaining as you go
- A form of only what you got wrong
Every form with its real size. Difficulty is the form’s own rating.
Every wrong answer gets its own reason
Each explanation says why the right answer is right and why each distractor fails — the exact line you would want if you had picked it. Every item is checked blind by a second AI model that never sees the key. This one is a real item from the On-level 1 form.
A panoramic radiograph shows the anterior teeth appearing narrowed and blurred.
This most likely indicates the patient was positioned:
A tutor who asks what you do first — and why
Say what you are stuck on, out loud. Axon teaches the section in the voice of the integrated national board dental exam (JCNDE), draws the reasoning on a board as it speaks, and quizzes you on it before it moves on. It knows your syllabus, your weak spots and where you left off.

“The tooth is non-vital and asymptomatic, and the tracing cone runs to its apex. Before you name it — is this acute or chronic, and what does the stoma tell you?”
Six lectures. A check after every section.
56 sections, each closed by its own knowledge check. Select any word on any page and Define opens a one-line meaning, why it matters and what it connects to — written for this exam.
Four of the 6 lectures, by their real titles. The bars are an example of checks passed. Audio narration for INBDE is on its way; the text is all here today.
Weak Spots, and a plan that reschedules itself
Your true score per area, settled from every answer you give anywhere in the course. The plan books the red ones around your week — hand it a screenshot of your timetable — gives every lecture seven spaced looks, and carries forward whatever a missed day ate.
One price. Everything open. A free day to decide.
Before you start
Is the full mock two days?
The real INBDE is 500 questions over two days in six sections of 105 minutes. Our twelve practice papers are 200 items each; the full mock draws 500 from all of them in one sitting. Image-based radiograph items are not included yet — radiographic findings are described in words.
Is there a score?
JCNDE reports pass or fail; a candidate who fails is told their scale score, where 75 is the minimum to pass on a 49–99 scale. A scale score is not a percentage. SynkMind’s readiness estimate is its own, not JCNDE’s.
Are these real exam questions?
No. Every item is original, written to the public content outline and checked blind by a second AI model that never sees the key. Nothing is copied from a published form, and we are not affiliated with any examining board.
