Abstract

Multiple angle of bisector rinn holder is a film holder instrument that is yet to be developed that is able to use paralleling technique and bisecting angle technique in oral x-ray radiography. It is a device aimed to be able to use multiple techniques in oral radiography while getting a good image quality that helps the dentist in doing their work. This is a project that involves the development of the instruments and the effectiveness of the instruments compared to the existing one. The result of the radiographic image was compared and certain constraint was used to compare the instruments with the existing instruments. This project used CATIA V5 software for the design stage. In this project, the instrument was tested to validate the effectiveness where the testing was conducted at the faculty of dentistry. The outcome was the effectiveness of the instrument as compared to the existing instrument with other certain constraints.

Highlights

Radiography is widely used in the medical industry to determine many disease’s state and condition of the patient to find the suitable treatment for them
The arm is to be fabricated through 3D printing using ABS material but after comparison, it was agreed to use the available arm which was used in the available film holder instrument
The advantage is quite clear in terms of number of parts, but the inability of the existing rinn holder to apply multiple technique is a bigger disadvantage compare to the rinn holder developed

Summary

Introduction

Radiography is widely used in the medical industry to determine many disease’s state and condition of the patient to find the suitable treatment for them. When the announcement of the discovery broke the news, this caught the attention of an American dentist named Charles Edmund Kells [1] He went on to test it on the dental industry and continue to promote the use of x-ray in dentistry by doing some publications and presentation [1]. He designs the oral radiography instrument that is the film holder instrument. A modification is done to the existing film holder instruments to support both techniques in order to get good image quality and eliminate the need to change instruments in using the techniques.
