patient. Orthopantograms serve the overall evaluation of the state of teeth and the skeleton in
the orofacial area. The majority of mistakes on orthopantograms arises when setting the
patient’s head. The mistakes are above all due to the incorrect position of the head in relation
to the imaging plane, incorrect inclination of the head in relation to the plane of the Frankfurt
horizontal and lack of adherence to instructions on the part of the patient. The exposure values
must be always adjusted according to instructions of themanufacturer.Repeated exposure leads
to unnecessary burdening of the patient and staff. High standard roentgenograms are the basis
