AB  - The risk of death rate resulted from imaging with X-rays has 
  been assessed as 2.5 vases of all one million radiographiesso that 170 cases 
  of death rate are annually occurred owing to using X-rays to perform a thorough 
  intra-oral radiography. For this reason, various guidelines are taken in recent 
  years regarding the protection against ionizing radiations in dental radiography 
  from the International Organization for Radiation Protection. This study aims 
  to determine observing the protection principles against radiation in dentistry 
  centers. In this descriptive study, a number of dentistry centers in Sistan 
  and Baluchestan Province were evaluated to determine observing the radiation 
  protection principles so that having been presented in dentistry centers, some 
  information was achieved the patients and personnel’s 
  observing the protection principles through observation and filling out the 
  questionnaire and the relative and absolute frequency of each indicators were 
  then analyzed in the next stage through SPSS Software. An undesirable condition 
  can be seen in most dentistry center due to existing the equipment of radiation 
  protection such aslead pinny, thyroid protection and compressed lead walls in 
  these centers such that 100% of dentistry radiography rooms had lead partitions, 
  31% of radiography rooms had thyroid protection and 26% were deprived of lead 
  immunized walls. Using high-speed films and automatic fixation and emergence 
  equipments in regarded centers is a very positive point and on the other hand, 
  one of the main problems in these centers is lack of periodically performing 
  quality control tests. Observing the protection principles against radiation 
  in dentistry centers had a desirable condition however, this condition was not 
  the same as those in quality control program.
