DEHY 2830

This course builds on the technical and theoretical aspects of dental radiography, the hazards and safety of radiation, as well as interpretation of radiographic images for dental hygiene care that were covered in the DEHY 2029. Course material will be presented through lectures and laboratory sessions. Laboratory sessions will include a "hands on" portion that allows students to expose intraoral images using prototype heads. This course will include advanced techniques not taught in DEHY 2029. The principles of digital imaging will be implemented, and students will use this technology to complete practical assignments.
