In TMJ Single Phase function it is possible to obtain 2 different acquisitions that
represent the right and left condyle with closed mouth or open mouth.
Figure 26 shows the information related to the single sectors.
Note
During the TMJ exam, the emission of X-rays is intermittent (it is interrupted
during the transition phases between various exposures), but it is necessary to
keep the X-ray button pressed for the entire rotation time. Do not release the
X-ray button during emission interruption, unless necessary. The cooling phase
of the tube-head occurs at the end of the exposures. In the CHILD position, the
start of exposure is delayed by a few degrees compared to the ADULT position.
