In the realm of dental health, patient safety and regulatory compliance are paramount, particularly when it comes to the use of X-ray technology. X-ray imaging is a cornerstone of modern dental diagnostics, providing invaluable insights into oral health and aiding in the detection and treatment of dental issues. However, the use of radiation, despite its benefits, necessitates stringent safety measures to protect both patients and healthcare professionals. MarShield, a leader in radiation shielding solutions, stands at the forefront of offering innovative and custom shielding products designed specifically for the dental industry.
The Importance of Radiation Protection in Dental Practices
In Canada, medical and dental facilities using X-ray equipment are governed by Health Canada guidelines, with oversight and management at the provincial level. In Ontario, the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care (MOH-LTC) oversees this area. For facility owners and operators in Ontario, this means obtaining approval for any new equipment installations or renovations and ensuring compliance with the latest Healing Arts Radiation Protection Act (HARP) legislation.
