Cone Beam CT Certification Program For Dental Assistants
Cone Beam CT Certification
Program For Dental
Assistants & Hygienists
COURSE OUTLINE:
Cone Beam CT (CBCT) is one of the fastest growing technologies in dentistry, with
approximately 100% growth per year since 2005. The applications of this technology
span every dental discipline and specific functions in implant planning, TMJ, airway
analysis and pathology. While there are courses on CBCT for dentists, there are very
few available for dental assistants and hygienists. Yet, most offices rely upon the staff
to be involved with the various aspects with the various aspects of CBCT imaging of
patients. This program is designed to fulfill a need for continuing education on the
topic of CBCT imaging and includes practical information for the utilization of CBCT.
Key topics include the fundamental technology behind CBCT, operational parameters,
patient management and positioning strategies, data management and reformatting
radiation hygiene and dosimetry.
The program includes a 2 hour workshop for hands on training on 3-D visualization.
Participants will be provided 3-D viewing software and practice cases to “walk through”
with guidance from the presenter. Participants will be required to carry a fully charged
laptop for this course (no MACs, your PC will need a graphics card with a minimum of
256 Mb of RAM). Course material will be emailed a few weeks prior to course date.
