● The positioning of the sensors using the parallel technique (with XIOS
sensor holders) ensures an optimal positioning of the sensors in the
beam path of the cone.
● It is the responsibility of each individual dentist to determine the
required dose for each patient in order to achieve image quality
suitable to make a diagnosis. Sirona can only make
recommendations.
When the desired patient symbol is set to the tooth symbol, the
recommended exposure times are assigned automatically.
Each tooth symbol is subdivided into three different exposure times.
For digital X-ray exposures, make sure to set the longest exposure time
setting within a tooth symbol for X-rays of adults, and the shortest
exposure time setting for X-rays of children.
Only then does the corresponding value appear on the digital display.
Adjacent example: Maxillary molar
Valid for software version 17 and higher (number appears briefly after the
unit is switched on).
Classification of recommended exposure
times by tooth region:
● A = adults
● B = children
● C = Mandibular anterior tooth
● D = Mandibular canine tooth
● E = Maxillary anterior tooth
● F = Maxillary molars
● G = Maxillary canine tooth / Mandibular molars
● H = occlusal exposure
If a 12" SSD cone is used together with a size 1 / size 2 XIOS X-ray
sensor, the above exposure times are doubled!
