This course is approved by the New Jersey Radiologic Technology Board of Examiners. Students will be introduced to the basic radiologic principles of intraoral and extraoral imaging of the dentoalveolar structures, as the radiographic examination plays an integral role in the diagnostic process in dentistry in conjunction with the clinical examination. The dental assistant must be proficient with intraoral and extraoral techniques to fulfill their roles as dental professionals.
Please submit a copy of your high school diploma or official transcript to jklepadl@rcsj.edu to complete your enrollment in the course.
