Dental Radiology (Dental Assisting)
Sinopsis :
The fourth edition of this highly regarded manual provides
information on current intraoral radiographic techniques and
new material on radiation safety. Featured in this book are
illustrated descriptions of techniques for taking periapical and
bitewing films, including Precision Instrument and Stabe
paralleling as well as bisecting-the-angle periapical
techniques. Also described and illustrated are panoramic and
cephalometric radiographic procedures and supplemental
intraoral procedures such as occlusal radiography and third
molar disto-oblique films. The basic principles of radiation
biology and radiation safety presented here provide a scientific
basis for safe and effective clinical radiography as well as the
information needed to answer patients' questions about
radiation effects and safety. An illustrated section on

radiographic anatomy gives students the background
necessary for assessing clinical film quality and correctly
mounting radiographs. The authors discuss the composition of
radiographic film and film processing procedures in order to
enable students to effectively organize a dental darkroom and
correctly process dental radiographs.The extensive use of
illustrations throughout the manual adds significantly to the
clarity of the material. Dental Radiology is intended for dental
auxiliary students as well as practicing dental assistants and
hygienists.
