Rule 380. Conventional building materials in partitions, floors, and ceilings may
provide adequate radiation shielding for dental installations. When a conventional
building structure does not provide adequate shielding, the shielding shall be increased by
providing greater thickness of building materials or by adding lead, concrete, steel, or
other suitable materials to the walls, floor, and ceiling of an existing room. In multiple
tube installations the possibility of exposure from multiple sources shall be considered.
Shielding shall be subject to approval by the department.
