Tips for taking oral dental radiographs Positioning.

1, the positioning of the patient: the patient should be seated in a vertical sagittal plane position; the upper maxillary radiograph, the nose - ear plane must remain horizontal; the lower maxillary radiograph, the plane of the occlusal plane must remain horizontal.

2, the positioning of the dental film: the side of the dental film without labels on the side facing the area to be examined. Angle-splitting technique, place the dental film and the x-ray generator as in Figure 2 (the ray beam is perpendicular to the equidistant line formed by the angle formed by the teeth and the dental film). The patient is asked to hold the veneer with his or her thumb and place the other fingers out of the radiographic range.
