Question | Answer |
---|---|
Atom | The basic unit of matter |
Electron | The negatively charged particle in the atom |
Energy | The ability to do work |
Ion | An electrically charged particle |
Matter | Anything that occupies space and has form or shape |
Molecule | Two or more atoms that are joined by chemical bonds |
Photon | A minute (tiny) bundle of pure energy that has no weight or mass |
X-radiation | High-energy ionizing electromagnetic radiation |
Nucleus | Dense core, of the atom is composed of particles known as protons and neutrons. |
Electrically unbalanced | An atom that gains or lose an electron |
X-rays have enough energy to push an electron out of its orbit, producing an | Ion |
X-rays have enough energy to push an electron out of its orbit, producing an ion | In a process called ionization. |
What are the shells in order | K, L, M, N, O, P |
Ionization is the process | Electrons are removed from the orbital shells of electrically stable atoms through collisions with x-ray photons |
Ion pair is when | Electron is removed from the atom |
If the atom gains an electron | It has a negative charge |
If the atom loses an electron | It has a positive charge |
An atom that gains or loses an electron | Gets electrically unbalanced is called an ion |
Converting an atom into ions is the process of | Ionization |
Percutaneous | Needle-puncture of the skin or cut through skin |
What does a bite wing capture | Captures the mx and md arch |
kVP | Kilovoltage peak, Contrast, how fast is quality |
Ma | Milliamperage, Density, how much is quantity |
The tooth | Whole tooth & nothing but the tooth |
Peri | Tissue surrounding the root of the tooth |
Apical | End of Apex |
2-3 mm | Above and below the root apex |
1/8 inch | Superior of incisal or occlusal edge |
Posterior | Yellow placed on premolars and molars vertically |
Anterior | Blue place behind anterior teeth vertically |
Bite wing | Place on occlusal surface of premolars and molars either vertically of horizontally |
XCP | X-tension Cone Paralleling Ring |
DXCP | Digital X-tension Cone Paralleling Ring |
Parts on a XCP | Ring, Rod, and Sensor holder |
Ring is | Non-critical (NC) |
Rod is | Semi-critical (SC) |
Sensor holder is | Semi-critical (SC) |
Sensor is | Non-critical (NC) |
Unexposed Film Appearance | Clear film with a bluish tinge |
Premolar Bite-Wing must include | Distal 1/2 canine, all premolars present and 1st molars of the MX and MD teeth and crestal bone |

Cone-cut Appearance | a clear, unexposed area on the film |
Phanagioma Appearance | Patient's finger appears on the film image |
CR | Central ray |
Dead man switch | The X-rays do not continue after the button is pressed |
Patient movement Appearance | Film image is distorted or blurred |
Incorrect Vertical Angulation Appearance | Short teeth with blunted roots appear on the film (Foreshortened) |
Dropped Film Corner Appearance | The occlusal plane appears tipped or tilted |
Incorrect Film Placement Appearance | No apices on the film |
Molar Bite-Wing must include | Distal 1/2 of second premolar, all molars present and both MX and MD molars, and crestal bone |
