ABSTRACT:
A universal integrated wireless digital dental x-ray sensor and positioning apparatus includes a digital array sensor, such as CCD or CMOS, attached to a distal end of a bite block portion through a hinge assembly. Attached to an opposite end of the bite block portion is a housing. The housing houses the electrical components which includes the digital imaging processing unit, a wireless transmitting unit, a power source for operating the electronics and a coupling for recharging the power source. An on-board viewer may be in the housing. The electrical components are coupled to the sensor through wires embedded within the bite block portion and extending through the hinge assembly. A target x-ray member is attached to the tubular housing for proper direction of the x-rays onto the sensor.
