Abstract | Data from dental intraoral radiography quality controls was gathered from 1201 units (22% of the licensed X-ray units existing in Portugal), using film and digital image systems, between 2016 and 2018. The median incident air KERMA for standard superior molar tooth was evaluated in 0.9 mGy with the value of 1.3 mGy as the upper quartile. Comparisons with a 1990 published survey from dental exposures in Portugal were made. A 85% reduction for incident air KERMA per exposure was observed (6.0 mGy for the 1990 survey), which can be attributed to technical advances in the X-ray image receptors, as well as the implementation of legal requirements for technical acceptability of radiological units. It was also observed an increase of X-ray exams, which is related to an increase of dental practitioners, available radiological equipment and the level of dental healthcare. |
