Across
- 2. light at either end of the visible spectrum of light that is invisible to the naked eye
- 3. completes an electric circuit and carries the current safely away
- 5. switch that will automatically interrupts or shuts off an electric circuit at the first indication of overload
- 6. process of fusing a acidic product into deeper tissues using galvanic current from the positive pole toward the negative pole
- 10. opposite pole from the active electrode
- 11. constant even flowing current that travels in one direction only and is produced by chemical means
- 12. a medical device that uses multiple colors and wavelengths of focused light to treat different conditions
