Though it is not often Outside tbe expedient to do so, because of the longer exposure IHOUtK necessary, it is nevehheless sometimes advisable to place the film outside the mouth. (Fig. 96.) The MAKING DENTAL RADIOGRAPHS 107 film packet may be held, sensitive side toward the cheek, with adhesivetape. With the film placed as in Fig. 96, the pose should be as in^^?- 97 The time of exposure for this pose is about six times as long. Fig. 97. Pose for making a radiograph of the lower molar region with the film outside of thenioutli, as in Fig. !)(>. and the radiograph made from this pose. as it would be if the film were placed inside of the mouth and the samefield radiographed. The increase in time exposure necessary is due tothree things: First, the increased distance between the target and thefilm. Second, the great thickness of tissue to be penetrated. Third, theincreased distance between the teeth and the film; the closer the object tobe radiographed is to the film or plate the better and more quickly it canbe radiographed. io8 DEXTAL RADIOGRAPHY Owing to the curvature of the dental arch it is often extremely diffi-cult to obtain a good picture of the lower incisors with the film placedto the lingual and parallel to the long axis of the teeth.
