Patient or X-ray cone has moved during the exposure.
■ Check exposure procedure.
■ Check the stability of your intraoral X-ray unit.
■ Use proper holders.
■ Too long exposure time may have been used.
Use shorter exposure time (increase kV if neces-
sary to compensate effect of shorter exposure
time).
Geometry distortion
Improper patient positioning.
■ Use proper holders to avoid this.
Note! Never do accurate measurements on intraoral im-
ages unless having known size of reference object in the
imaging plane.
