Conversely, the introductory section on radiation physics is perhaps too detailed to keep the reader involved, and the interpretation section appears to be very basic. It covers radiological interpretation of restorations, caries, periodontal disease and dental trauma but does not cover facial trauma and salivary gland pathology: topics which are covered in the undergraduate curriculum. I recall as an undergraduate being particularly concerned about differential diagnoses of radio-opaque and lucent lesions and this was only touched on briefly. For advanced oral radiography techniques or interpretation, one should refer to a more detailed text.

The dental radiographer must have a working knowledge of radiographic image receptors and intraoral radiographic techniques to produce quality images. Occasionally, errors will occur which can result in diagnostically unacceptable radiographic images. When errors do occur, the radiographer must have the requisite skills to evaluate, correct and ultimately eliminate the errors. A review of image receptors and the following troubleshooting steps can help correct and subsequently prevent common errors.

The information in this 12-module syllabus is intended (1) to meet elements of initial educational/training requirements for Dental Students, Dental Hygiene Students, and Dental Assistant Students related to dental radiography; (2) to provide a framework for an in-service training program in oral healthcare settings to meet annual educational/training requirements as mandated by federal, state, local and professional organizations; and (3) to serve as a resource for oral healthcare personnel wishing to review evidence-based information on specific topics related to dental radiography. A PDF is available for each module that may serve as a convenient resource.

Providing essential coverage of dental radiography principles and complete technical instruction, Dental Radiography: Principles and Techniques, 4th Edition, is your key to the safe, effective use of radiation in the dental office. The first ever full-color dental radiography resource, this combination of a textbook and a training manual guides you step-by-step through common procedures, with accompanying illustrations, case studies, and interactive exercises to help you apply what you've learned to practice.

Practicing dental assistants will learn the basic principles and techniques of digital intraoral and panoramic radiography as they expose and evaluate radiographic images during laboratory sessions. Certification in the NOMAD handheld dental X-ray unit is now included in this course.

This intensive two-week course educates dental assistants in the basic fundamentals of dental radiography. Successful course completion satisfies the Rhode Island Department of Health requirement for exposure of radiographs in the dental office setting.

Dental radiography uses ionizing radiation; thus, it is essential that all dental personnel maintain knowledge of radiographic techniques and radiation safety to perform clinical procedures. The course reviews current knowledge of radiation physics, biology, and protection and imaging principles, as well as techniques. The most common pathology in dentistry will also be discussed. The course is a didactic experience and will be conducted using lectures aided by online videos.

1. Discuss the principles of radiation physics.
2. Describe the biologic effects of ionizing radiation.
3. Discuss the principles and techniques of commonly used diagnostic imaging techniques in general dental practice.
4. Interpret two- and three-dimensional dental and maxillofacial radiographs.
5. Determine which type of and how many dental radiographs are needed on an individual basis.
6. Use digital imaging software tools.
7. Explain to patients the benefits and potential risks of the use of diagnostic ionizing radiation.

It is obvious that you are quite concerned about what happened at your last dental visit. First, let me confirm what your dentist likely told you about the radiation dose from panoramic radiographs: this type of imaging requires the smallest amount of radiation of any x-ray technique for the teeth and jaws. A common way of looking at x-ray amounts for various imaging techniques is to convert them to a unit called "effective dose." This allows us to compare different types of x-ray exams and also to compare them to the amount of natural background radiation we receive every day.

3. The sponsoring entity and the dental radiography training must be approved by the State entity responsible for approving dental hygiene education programs or the State entity responsible for credentialing dental personnel in radiography.

1. The dental radiography curriculum content and learning experiences must include the theoretical aspects of the subject as well as practical application of techniques. The theoretical aspects should provide content necessary for dental hygienists to understand the critical nature of the radiological procedures they perform and of the judgments they make as related to patient and operator radiation safety.

1. This may include a D.D.S./D.M.D. degree; graduation from an accredited dental assisting or dental hygiene education program with a certificate or an associate or baccalaureate degree; status as a Certified Dental Assistant certified by the Dental Assisting National Board; or recognition as equivalently qualified by the State entity which approved the training program in dental radiography.

Adequate radiographic facilities must be available to permit achievement of the dental radiography training objectives. The design, location, and construction of radiographic facilities must provide optimum protection from X-radiation for patients and operators. Equipment shall meet State and Federal laws related to radiation. Monitoring devices shall be worn by dental personnel. Lead aprons must be placed to protect patients. Safe storage for films must be provided. Darkroom facilities and equipment must be available and of a quality that assures that films will not be damaged or lost.

This module aims to develop knowledge of the science and technology underpinning 2-D and 3-D imaging techniques; Computed Tomography (CT), Mammography, Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasound, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), interventional and dental radiography. It addresses the principles of safe practice in using these various modalities and quality assurance in medical imaging. The module further aims to provide practical experience in interpretation of the images that arise from these modalities.

This module aims to equip you with a fundamental understanding of the roles and scope of Computed Tomography (CT), Mammography, Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasound, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), interventional and dental radiography within the field of medical imaging to underpin appropriate decision-making when justifying imaging requests. The module also aims to develop safe practice within these modalities so that you have appropriate awareness of restrictions, ethics, legislation and professionalism to be able to maintain the safety of yourself and others present in the imaging environment.

Nonetheless, the conventional plain film imaging has been the examination of choice over the last century in the initial evaluation of maxillofacial pathological lesions as well as in determining the need for other projections [7]. However, the intrinsic limitations of conventional radiography include anatomic superimposition of structures, geometric distortion and lack of soft tissue imaging in addition to the examinations being technique sensitive [3]. Therefore, the need for other advanced imaging modalities such as conventional CT which is the technique of choice in the evaluation of most maxillofacial pathology since it gives excellent bone and soft tissue details [8]. Over the past decade CBCT has also increasingly replaced conventional dental radiological procedures [6]. It has been clinically applied in implantology, orthodontics, maxillofacial surgery and the assessment of dentoalveolar pathology [9,10].
