Pedodontic Placement Techniques
When you are placing a sensor in the mouth of a child, you will often face the same
challenges that you face with placing film in their mouths. Keep in mind that although
the sensor is larger than a film pack, it is also smoother. This will work to your
advantage.
Here are some techniques that will help you succeed in using the sensor in children
when standard techniques fail. You may be familiar with many of them, since they
work not only for the DEXIS Titanium and IXS size 1 sensor, but for film as well.
To begin, you should set the child up for X-rays both physically and psychologically;
that is, ready their mouths and their minds. Use diversion when necessary. In
addition, consider the size of the pedo film relative to the sensor. Also consider what
information you need to gather from the X-ray and use that part of the sensor that
will enable you to capture the information you need.

Avoid saying the word tongue, since it might cause the tongue to act
