The purpose of this learning object is to introduce the dental hygienist to the process of documenting a patient's dentition.

Dental x-rays are generated in the dental x-ray tube. Through this animated learning object, students will learn the steps in x-ray generation from turning on the x-ray unit to exposing the dental x-ray film.

In this animated activity, learners examine the components of the dental x-ray tube and how dental x-rays are generated.

The tubehead is a sealed, heavy metal housing that contains the x-ray tube that produces dental x-rays. This learning object will provide students with practice identifying and labeling the dental x-ray tubehead.

In this interactive object, learners complete dental formulas for various species of animals.

In this screencast, students read about the stages of microbial dental plaque formation and the time it takes for each stage to occur.

Learners examine the components of the x-ray tubehead, a sealed, heavy metal housing that contains the x-ray tube that produces dental x-rays. This object is designed to help students understand the functions and safety features of the tubehead.

Learners read a scenario about a blood-borne pathogen incident in the workplace and decide the best action to take.

Learners assess the periodontal status and the health risk factors of a fictitious patient. They also make treatment recommendations in this interactive lesson.

Interactive excercise to age deer by dental inspection.

Learners examine the contents of organized microbial plaque and test their knowledge in matching exercises.
