block slide, fold the bite block foam down and snap the
lower part onto the pins of the upper part.

Insert the universal bite block in the bite block holder and
set the bite block slide according to the type of exposure:
Yellow mark for mandibular TSA exposures.
If the mandibular ramus is not displayed on the TSA
A
exposure and the crowns of the teeth are not necessarily
of interest, then use the red mark (A).
Blue mark for maxillary TSA exposures.
Green mark for maxillary TSA exposures, where the
alveolar ridge of the patient's head is aligned parallel to
the floor to position the patient a little lower in relation to
the beam path.
Black mark (B), suitable for bite wing exposures with
the TSA sensor and the longitudinal slice setting.
Select the longitudinal slices for this purpose, see page

ATTENTION
Do not under any case use this TSA universal bite block
(black mark) for bite wing exposure programs BW1 and
BW2.
