Imaging Basics
Dental imaging includes intraoral, panoramic, and cone beam CT. These techniques visualize teeth and surrounding structures. Students learn common projections.
Cone Beam CT
Cone beam CT provides three dimensional views. It helps evaluate bone structure and pathology. Students explore clinical applications.
Clinical Uses
Maxillofacial imaging supports diagnosis of trauma, infection, and developmental issues. It also aids surgical planning. Students learn common scenarios.
Safety Considerations
Radiation dose varies across dental imaging techniques. Proper shielding and technique reduce exposure. Students learn guidelines for safe practice.
