Bisecting Angle Dental X-Ray Positioner - 1

COCHRAN BISECTING ANGLE 1 DENTAL X-RAY POSITIONER Small animal dental radiography is vital to the successful diagnosis and treatment of dental disease. However, obtaining accurate intra-oral films can be challenging unless the proper techniques are used. Bisecting Angle Imaging is a well-established technique in both human and veterinary dentistry. With this approach, even the most difficult to reach teeth are properly radiographed. The patented COCHRAN BISECTING ANGLE DENTAL X-RAY POSITIONER will help veterinarians and technicians get excellent quality films each time. What is a Bisecting Angle? In any 90-degree arc there is one angle at which an X-ray beam will accurately shadow the tooth on film. This is the bisecting angle: the bisection of the long axis of the tooth and the angle of the film. The X-ray beam is directed perpendicular to the bisecting angle for the perfect undistorted image.
