9. Have the patient smile to properly position the canine laser beam at the center of the
patient’s canine tooth. Rotate the thumb wheel, located under the patient support rest,
forward and backward to properly align the beam.
10. Position the head of the patient to
properly align their Frankfort plane with
the horizontal laser beam. For proper
positioning, adjust in which way the
patient’s head is tilted by adjusting the
unit slightly upward or downward using
the column up/down switch. The
Frankfort plane is the line from the
infra-orbital point to the superior edge of the External Auditory Meatus(EAM).
11. The horizontal laser beam, located at
the side of the column, can be
adjusted up or down to accommodate
different head sizes. This is done by
manually moving the horizontal laser
beam lever up or down.
