Solution

failed
failed

The answer is (B) False.

Explanation: The correct procedure for positioning the dental light typically involves placing it above the patient's oral cavity, not on the patient's chest. The light should be adjusted to illuminate the mouth area directly to provide the dentist with a clear view. Placing the light on the patient's chest would not be effective for this purpose. Therefore, the statement in the question is incorrect.
