WARNING
Be careful not to project the laser beams directly into the
patient’s eyes as this could severely damage the patient’s
vision.

Position the Mid-sagittal plane laser
beam at the center of the patient’s face to
prevent magnifications of the left or right
side in the final image.
B.
Frankfurt plane laser beam:
The
Frankfurt plane laser beam should go from
the top of the ear to the tip of the nose
when the patient’s head is tilted back 10 –
15 °.
You may adjust the Frankfurt plane laser
beam by manually adjusting the Frankfurt
plane laser beam lever.
C.
Canine laser beam:
Have the patient
smile to properly position the canine laser
beam on the center of the patient’s canine
tooth.
Completing Patient Positioning

supports to fit snugly on both sides of the patient’s head using the temple
support wheel. The temple support wheel is located underneath the patient
support rest.

Ready
button on the PC or Touchscreen after the patient has been
properly positioned. At this point, X-Ray will not be emitted. The rotating unit
