The imaging plate has two sides: the active side for capturing the X-ray image and the inactive side.
The active side of the imaging plate includes an orientation mark ‘c’ to facilitate accurate positioning
within the patient’s mouth. The inactive side has a printed dot that corresponds to the location of the
orientation mark on the active side. This dot is visible through the transparent hygienic sheath and is
also helpful for positioning the imaging plate correctly in the patient’s mouth.

positioning the imaging plate correctly in the patient’s mouth while the opaque side protects the active
