Panorama Exposures
4. Have the patient stand straight, move forward and lightly
take the bite block in his mouth and then set his chin on it.
Have him grip the handles and lower his shoulders.
Close the temple stabilizers until they lightly contact the
patient’s head.
Use the laser beams as described on page 27 and then close
the temple stabilizers firmly.
Do not use excessive force to close the temple
stabilizers.
This could be uncomfortable for the patient or damage
the stabilizers.
Forcing the patient in or out could also damage the
stabilizers.
5. Make sure the patient’s face is straight and then line up the
Frankfort plane beam with the patient’s frankfort plane
using the beam Up or Down key.
The laser beam could cause eye damage. Do not look
directly into it or let it strike you or the patient in the eye.
6. Move the patient’s head to the left or right until the
Mid-sagittal beam lines up with the patient’s mid-sagittal
plane. Then tighten up the temple stabilizer so that the
patient’s face will not move.
