5 materials/structures which appear radiolucent

XCP is the film holding device

Vertical angulation is obtained from preset charts

Film actually touches the tooth during film placement

Is called the right angle technique

Is the most accurate intraoral periapical technique

Central ray is perpendicular to the long axis of the tooth

Uses a long OFD

Uses a long TFD

Uses a short OFD

Uses a short TFD

Long cone technique

Short cone technique

Has more technique errors associated with it
