Sensor Comfort and Patient Satisfaction

The KO DAK RVG ***0 sensor comes in 3 sizes—0, 1, and 2. The new size 0 is designed specifically for pediatric use. It has rounded corners and special bite blocks that are designed to increase patient comfort. All 3 sizes have new casings (0 and 1 have rounded edges and size 2 has clipped corners), which, according to the manufacturer, are intended to make the radiography experience more comfortable for the patient, remove the “dead zone” factor, and allow for vertical placement. Most of the dentist evaluators gave the product high marks when asked about patient comfort and satisfaction. Four evaluators rated it as excellent for sensor comfort and 5 gave the same rating for patient satisfaction. One evaluator, however, said that patients were generally satisfied with the comfort, but some “[complained] about the thickness of the sensor.” Another evaluator noted that “patients seem to appreciate the rounded corners and small profile of the sensor.”
