DEXIS
The sensor may alternatively be positioned by hand and held in place by the patient
with one finger just like conventional X-ray film. If the Positioning System is not
used, a wad of cotton wool may be useful for aligning the sensor parallel to the tooth.
It may be best to position the sensor by hand in the small mouths of children.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should the dental professional hold the
sensor by hand during the X-ray exposure.
Note however, that image quality might be inferior with respect to one attained using
an aiming device.
CAUTION
Biting down on the sensor or cable will damage the housing and/or
cable and lead to a sensor malfunction.
5. Position the X-ray generator as usual for X-ray film.
Use of the paralleling technique is highly recommended.
CORRECT
Important:
Verify connectivity of the DEXIS Sensor to the computer along with
having a green driver icon before attempting to take an X-ray.
CAUTION
For maximum image quality, make sure the patient remains still
during the exposure.
WARNING
Take the necessary steps to protect yourself from radiation. For
proper operator positioning, refer to the 'Instructions for Use' of your
intraoral X-ray equipment.
