X-Ray Sensor Positioner
Improve Accuracy and Comfort in Intraoral Imaging
Intraoral radiography is a cornerstone of modern diagnostic dentistry. However, image quality depends heavily on the accurate placement of the digital sensor within the oral cavity. Improper positioning often results in blurred images, repeat exposures, and patient discomfort.
To address this common clinical challenge, a patented medical device has been developed: a universal intraoral sensor positioner designed to improve precision, stability, and efficiency during digital X-ray imaging in professional dental settings.
From a Daily Problem to a Precise Solution
Proper sensor positioning is essential yet often difficult, due to patient anatomy, gag reflex, and restricted access inside the mouth. In routine practice, it’s not uncommon for the sensor to be manually held—either by the patient using a finger, or by the clinician—which complicates efficient, high-quality image capture.
Ergonomic Design, Clinically Proven Performance
This medical device was designed and patented by Dr. Emilio Sayago, a practicing dentist who has integrated the tool into his daily workflow with consistent clinical success. It has proven highly effective in real-world settings in terms of comfort, image quality, and operator efficiency.
Manufactured as a single-piece unit, the positioner is made from a biocompatible, sterilizable, and slightly deformable material that resists multiple autoclave cycles without compromising its mechanical properties or patient safety.
Key Design Features
- Vertical elastic clamp: Provides a firm grip on the digital sensor, preventing movement during radiographic exposure.
- Horizontal intraoral support platform: Functions as a comfortable bite block, enabling the patient to stabilize the sensor with gentle pressure.

Universal Compatibility and Clinical Versatility
A major strength of this intraoral sensor positioner is its universal compatibility with various brands, sizes, and formats of digital sensors, both wired and wireless. This flexibility makes it an ideal tool for clinics using diverse equipment or working with multiple suppliers.
Its ergonomic design supports use across all tooth groups—incisors, canines, premolars, and molars—in both the upper and lower jaws. The device adapts seamlessly to a wide range of clinical situations, from routine bitewings to more complex imaging needs requiring exact sensor positioning.
Technical and Clinical Benefits
- Ensures proper angulation for high-quality radiographic images
- Reduces positioning errors and avoids unnecessary retakes
- Protects the sensor from damage caused by direct handling
- Enhances patient comfort during procedures
- Optimizes clinician efficiency in high-volume settings
- Offers a low-cost, durable solution suitable for daily clinical use
Clinical and Industrial Potential
The intraoral positioner patented by Dr. Sayago is a practical and clinically validated innovation with strong potential across both dental practice and the medical device industry.
The device is legally protected under an active patent, ensuring exclusive design rights and commercial protection. Thanks to its functional simplicity, scalable manufacturing, and proven clinical value, it represents an excellent opportunity for companies interested in licensing, producing, or distributing innovative tools in the dental sector.
This patented product is available for sale or licensing in both local and international markets. It is especially attractive to dental equipment manufacturers, distributors, med-tech startups, and organizations focused on technology transfer.
