RADIOGRAPHY

1.Intensifying screens are used in EXTRAORAL RADIOGRAPHIC
CASSETTES TO REDUCE THE EXPOSURE TIME AND DOSE FOR
THE PATIENT
---------------------------------------------------------------to
----------------------------------------------------------------.
2. DPT stands for ------------------------------------Dental
PanoramicTomograph------
3.Intra-oral film packets contain lead foil to -----------stop the x-ray beam
passing out of the film packet after exposing the film and causing
unwanted exposure.
----------------------------------------------------------------
4 Anterior occlusal radiographs are often taken to --------
determine the position of unerupted canines
and to diagnose mesiodens
5 Silver bromide is used in dental radiography as
the coating on the unexposed film
which acts by absorbing the x-ray beam on exposure to produce the
image.
6.Staff X-ray exposure can be checked using
monitoring badges which should be checked by an authorised
radiographic monitoring company.
7. Elongation occurs on radiographs when the cone of the machine at too
shallow an angle to the film packet.
8. A radicular cyst appears on a radiograph as a radiolucent area adjacent
to the apex of the tooth, with a white rim around it.
9. The bisecting angle technique is used to ensure that neither elongation
or foreshortening of the image occurs.
10. An underdeveloped radiograph will appear as ------------

should show ---------------------------------------------------------
