x-ray digital sensor
Tracking root parallelism during treatment is critical, but our x-ray digital sensor is letting us down. The active area feels tiny compared to the housing, so if the patient moves 1mm we get a cone cut right over the lateral incisor roots. That’s the whole point of the image. We’ve recalibrated, checked positioning, but the sensor is just unforgiving. I’m wasting chair time and exposing patients multiple times to get one diagnostic shot. For an ortho practice shooting 20+ progress PAs a day, this is unacceptable. Need an x-ray digital sensor with better latitude and a larger active area. What’s actually reliable for ortho workflows?
