Q

When the cassette holder is exposed to X-rays

Q

If the tongue is not in contact with the palate during exposure a dark radiolucent shadow that obscures the spices of the maxillary teeth results.to prevent such errors…

16
Q

If the patients chin is po intend up or too high

A

1 the hard palate and floor of the nasal cavity appear superimposed over the roots of the maxillary teeth
2 a loss of detail in the maxillary incisor region occurs.
3 the maxillary incisors appear blurred and magnified
4 * a revers smile line :( is seen in the image.

17
Q

If the patients teeth are too far forward on the bite block

A

Anterior teeth appear skinny and out of focus

18
Q

If the patients teeth are too far back on the bit block

A

The teeth appear fat

19
Q

The images seen on the paranormic are not as sharp as the intra oral projections because of

A

The intensifying screen

20
Q

Extra oral images are

A

Placed out side of he mouth and used to view large areas of the skull or the Jaws. Many are primarily used in orthodontics and oral surgery.

21
Q

Extra oral projection may be used alone or in conjunction with

A

Intra oral projections, they aren’t also not as defined as intra oral projections.

22
Q

An occlusal size ? May be used for some extra oral images

A

4

23
Q

The occlusal film used extra orally does not

A

Cover as large of an area as does a screen film

24
Q

The fron side of the cassette

A

Covered with plastic and and permits the passage of the X-ray

25
Q

The back side of the cassette.

A

Made of metal to reduce scatter

26
Q

A grid

A

Canberra used to decrees film fog and increase the contrast of the image

27
Q

Scatter radiation is absorbed by the lead strips and does not reach the surface of the film to cause film fog to compensate for the lead strips

A

Exsposure time must be increased.

28
Q

Lateral jaw imaging is used to examine

A

The posterior region of the mandible and invaluable for use in children to patients limited jaw opening. And also in patients whom have difficulty stabilizing or tolerating intra oral receptors.

29
Q

The purpose of the lateral jaw projection- body of mandible

A

To evaluate impacted teeth ,fractures, and lesions in the body of the mandible.

30
Q

Head position

A

Tipped 15 degrees toward the side being imaged

31
Q

Revers towne projection

A

To identify fractures of the condylar neck and ram us area.

32
Q

Before the gag reflex is initiated the following two reactions accrue

A

Cessation of respiration

Contraction of the throat and abdomen muscles.

33
Q

The most likely to election the gag reflex is the

A

Maxillary molar receptor

34
Q

In The patent with hypersensitive gag reflex the exposure sequence should be altered so the

A

Maxillary molar receptors are last

35
Q

If the patents gag reflex is uncontrollable

A

The dental radiographer should not use the intra oral imaging.instead use the paranormic or lateral jaw images

36
Q

To reduce gag reflex

A

Do reassure the patient and remove the receptor as quickly as possible.
Do try to distract the patient. Position leg or arm in the air to divert attention.

37
Q

Patients with vision impared

A

Communicate using clear verbal explanations

38
Q

If a paranormic x ray machine is not available

A

14 periapicle (6 anterior 8 posterior ) can be used.

39
Q

Size ? Is typically used for the edentulose examination

A

2

40
Q

The receptor should be placed that…

A

One third of it extends beyond the edentulose ridge

41
Q

If the alveolar ridges are severely resorted

A

A bisecting technique is recommended
