DEN3019 — TTT: Radiog for Den Educators
This course provides comprehensive preparation for dental educators who teach or supervise dental radiography in North Carolina. It integrates core radiographic science, radiation biology, safety and protection, infection control, and intraoral techniques with instructional methodology, North Carolina-specific laws, regulations, and competency-based assessment strategies. Emphasis is placed on paralleling and related intraoral techniques, radiographic error recognition and correction, radiographic anatomic interpretation, and the design of syllabi, objectives, rubrics, and remediation plans that meet NC State Board of Dental Examiners and NC Radiation Protection Section requirements. Through a combination of lectures, discussions, case-based activities, and intensive laboratory practice, participants will develop both technical proficiency in dental radiography and the ability to evaluate, coach, and calibrate students and colleagues in safe and effective radiographic practice. Colleges offering this course must be CODA accredited and approved by the NC State Board of Dental Examiners.
