Questions and 100% correct Answers
dental radiograph - answer A photographic image produced on film by the passage
of x-rays through teeth and related structures
X-ray - answer A beam of energy that has the power to penetrate substances and
record image shadows on photographic film
Radiation - answer A form of energy carried by waves or a steam of particles
Dental radiographer - answer Any person who positions, exposes, and processes
dental x-ray image receptors
Radiography - answer The production of radiographs by the exposure of film to x-
rays
X-radiation - answer A high-energy radiation produces by the collision of a beam of
electrons with a metal target in an x-ray tube
Radiology - answer The science or study of radiation as used in medicine
Dental radiography - answer The production of radiographs of the teeth and
adjacent structures by the exposure of image receptors to x-rays
radiograph - answer A two-dimensional representation of three-dimensional object

Can detect a disease/condition that would otherwise go unnoticed* - answer
Discuss the importance of dental images*
1. Roentgen experimented with the production of cathode rays using a:
-vacuum tube
-electrical current-special screens covered with fluorescent material
2. Roentgen observed that cathode rays:
-appeared as colored light passing from one end of the tube to the other
-didn't travel far outside of the tube
-caused fluorescent screens to glow
3. Roentgen concluded the fluorescence must be the result of an unknown ("x") ray
4. Roentgen replaced the fluorescent screens with a photographic plate and realized
shadowed images could be permanently recorded on the plate when it
5. Exposed his wife's hand to x-rays for 15 minutes and seen the outline of her bones -
answer Summarize the discovery of x-radiation*
