Specialty Cases
In some cases, maintaining patient comfort while capturing an accurate image requires an alternative approach. Anatomical challenges that benefit from special positioning techniques include:
- Shallow palates which may prevent the patient from occluding
- Narrow arches where an alternative media holder may be needed
- Patients with a sensitive gag reflex
We offer holders to support all media types and sizes, for every case, setting clinicians up for success no matter what hurdles they may face.

Bisecting technique steps
- Place the biteblock on the lingual aspect of the tooth
- Place the biteblock as close to the tooth being imaged
- The biteblock and long axis of the tooth form an angle
- Visualize an imaginary bisector line down the middle of the angle created by the tooth and biteblock
- Position the central ray perpendicular to the imaginary line
