NOTE
If needed, the full view position (right button) can be
disabled (Settings > User > 1300 Operational settings >
1330 Patient positioning). This might be necessary if there
is no space for the C-arm to move back.
NOTE
Planmeca ProMax 2D S2 units offer only one patient entry
position. This entry position is the closed patient entry
position where the C-arm is positioned around the temple
supports.
9.3.2 Positioning patient in X-ray unit
1. Press the temple support button to open the temple
supports if they are not already open.
2. Guide the patient to the X-ray unit.
3. Adjust the X-ray unit to suit the height of the patient.
To do this, press either of the height adjusting
buttons until the chin rest is approximately level with
the patient’s lower jaw.
4. Ask the patient to step forward, grasp the patient
handles, stretch and straighten their back and neck,
and bite the bite piece. The upper and lower incisors
must be in the groove in the bite piece.
NOTE
If you are using the chin support, position the patient so
that the chin touches the top bar as shown.
NOTE
If you are using the chin support or chin cup, use for
example a cotton roll to ensure that the patient’s upper and
lower incisors do not overlap.
