Our Dental Radiography: HARP-approved Certification course is intended for those with a dental background – that is, employed in a dental practice in Ontario or a graduate of a dental office administration program or an internationally trained dental professional – who wish to be qualified to meet the requirements of the Healing Arts Radiation Protection (HARP) Act. This radiography course studies the theoretical, legal, and practical applications involved in the exposure, processing, and handling of dental radiographs. Practice various intra-oral radiographic techniques to produce radiographs of diagnostic value while learning to follow radiation safety protocol and processing procedures. Also learn how to identify normal radiographic landmarks and how to recognize and solve faulty radiographs. Focus on standard intraoral radiographic techniques, radiation hygiene measures, and provincial and federal regulations as well as client management.

 

Passing this course means you have met all the requirements set out by the HARP Act and are qualified to operate an x-ray machine in the province of Ontario. It also earns you a George Brown College certificate of course completion.
