Online retraining
Dental assistants and dental hygienists
Many oral care practice assistants and dental hygienists have undergone training to take radiographs on assignment. According to professional guidelines, this knowledge must be refreshed every five years. With this online retraining you fulfil this requirement. You will receive the certificate upon completion.
Has the assistant or dental hygienist not yet completed basic training?
The KNMT guideline Dental Radiology states that staff who take X-rays must have basic training in X-ray recording technique and radiation protection. Such a course consists of both a theoretical- as a practicecomponent. Our basic course fully meets these requirements. The certificate consists of a theoretical part that can be followed online, the practical part you carry out in your own working environment and have the TMS sign off on it.
This course is suitable for you if you:
✔ Currently working as a dental assistant or dental hygienist and have not yet completed a basic course
✔ Want to know more about working safely with X-rays
✔ Need an official and legally valid certificate
Both beginners and assistants with experience can participate. This course is not part of the VGT's 'Portal Radiation Protection PLUS' subscription.
