Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
correctly exposing intra oral receptors include four basic steps
A
receptor placement, vertical PID (cone) angulation alignment, horizontal PID (cone) angulation alignment, and central ray centering.
B
receptor removal, vertical PID (cone) angulation alignment, horizontal PID (cone) angulation alignment, and central ray centering
C
receptor placement, vertical PID (cone) angulation alignment, horizontal PID (cone) angulation alignment, and lateral ray centering
D
receptor placement, vertical PID (cone) angulation alignment, horizontal PID (cone) angulation alignment, and patient cooperation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The closer the end of the PID is to the patient’s face, the less X-‐ray spread. The results are better contrast and density of a radiograph, and a smaller area of tissue being exposed to radiation. The XCP ring should be close to the patient’s face, and the PID close to the ring of the XCP.

Detailed explanation-2: -Two types of exposure techniques may be used for intraoral periapical radiography: the paralleling and the bisecting angle technique (Figures 1 and 2). With the paralleling technique, the tooth and the sensor are both kept on a parallel planes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Intraoral images can be divided into three categories: (1) periapical projections, (2) bitewing projections, and (3) occlusal projections. Periapical radiographs should show all of a tooth, including the surrounding bone. Bitewing images show only the crowns of teeth and the adjacent alveolar crests.

Detailed explanation-4: -1 Periapical. 2 Bite-wing. 3 Occlusal. 08-Jan-2015
