Spring. The second year course in radiology presents an overview of methods and technology used to image and diagnose the oral and maxillofacial region. Lecture topics include principles of radiographic interpretation; evaluating the quality of images; imaging errors, appropriate viewing conditions, and the value of various radiographic examinations. Interpretive topics encompass developmental and environmental influences on the teeth and supporting structures, dental caries, periodontal disease, pulpal/periapical inflammation. The radiographic appearances of benign, malignant and traumatic disease of the oral and maxillofacial structures are presented.

2.00 Credits
Fall/Spring.?Developing clinicians apply principles of imaging and radiation safety toward selecting and taking the most appropriate radiographic examination to make accurate diagnoses and formulate a patient-centered treatment plan. The principles of radiographic interpretation, image quality, appropriate viewing conditions, and the value of alternative radiographic views are emphasized. Students become proficient in intraoral and panoramic radiographic technique and in interpretive topics including developmental and environmental influences on the teeth and supporting structures, dental caries, periodontal disease and pulpal/periapical inflammation. Students make clinical judgments and effectively apply problem-solving skills in a clinical environment with patient contact. They explain to dental patients the principles of radiation safety, imaging technique and radiographic findings at the level appropriate for a knowledgeable healthcare professional.

Fall/Spring. This course is the application of radiographic technique and interpretation in a clinical environment.???Developing clinicians refine their skills while?functioning as leaders in a clinical team applying principles of imaging and radiation safety toward selecting and taking the most appropriate radiographic examination to make accurate diagnoses and formulate a patient-centered treatment plan.? Year IV students?model the principles of radiographic interpretation, image quality, appropriate viewing conditions and the value of alternative radiographic views while directing Year II students in intraoral and panoramic radiographic technique and in interpretive topics. REST 528. Fixed Prosthodontics (7) Fall/Spring. The course establishes a basic understanding of fixed partial prosthodontics and develops the skills necessary to complete?the treatment and laboratory procedures with predictable, consistent success.? Principles involved in making both individual restorations and fixed partial dentures are taught.? The course includes different types of preparations for teeth, the fabrication of temporary restorations, impression techniques, the construction of working casts of these preparations, and the fabrication of single restorations and fixed partial dentures.
