2.14 ACCESSORIES
Temple rest
The temple rest supports provide support, frontal and lateral stability to the patient’s head for all types of examination.
Chin rest
The chin rest allows immobilizing the patient’s mouth during the 3D CBCT and the 2D maxillary sinus exams; it should also be
used for 2D panoramic exams in case of edentulous patients.
Sliding bite block and chin rest assembly
The combined use of the bite block and the chin rest improves the stability of the jaws, allows separating the teeth during the
acquisition and places in the same vertical plane the superior and the inferior incisors.
The bite block and chin rest assembly must be used for immobilizing the patient in panoramic exams except in case of
edentulous patients; in addition, it can be used in CBCT scans when an improved 3D reconstruction of the dental crown
surface is required.
