This two part course combines a live Zoom lecture with hands-on skills sessions to ensure greater flexibility, protection, and safety measures in response to COVID-19. Upon registration you will receive confirmation to your Zoom lecture which will take place on Friday before your class. You will then attend your skills session the following day.

Note: This is a 4-day course and ALL participants will need 4 patients for the clinical examination.

The first day of the course will consist of didactic (lecture) and a radiography final exam. The second day will consist of laboratory practices on radiology manikins (4 sets of x-rays, processing, critiquing and mounting). The third day will be in the setting of your own dental office. You will need 3 clinical patients. A full set of x-rays (FMX) must be taken on each patient: 1 digital survey and 2 traditional surveys. If this is not possible, we can arrange for you to take x-rays at our facility. The fourth day of course is for your final clinical patient (you must provide patient-digital survey) and evaluations from previous clinical assignments. This must be performed at our facility.

    I learned how to take X-rays on Dexter the practice dummy, and then patients in real life. I feel confident in my skills 🙂
