Cheers from the dental side of the world. I'm an oral radiology resident and I am trying to gauge how imaging is handled in your EDs for patients that present with dental pain/infection. First of, I want to say its unfortunate that this burden often falls on you. At my university it is all too common for patients with tooth pain/infections to be seen in the ED. That being said, my questions are:
1) What are your imaging protocols for patients with dental issues?
2) Who reads/interprets the imaging you order for dental issues?
Thanks!
