What type of Safelite filter is acceptable for use?

The GBX-2 filter is specifically designed for use in dental radiography, providing optimal protection while maintaining the necessary sensitivity for proper image acquisition. This particular filter is known for its balance between ensuring adequate filtration to remove low-energy, non-diagnostic radiation while allowing sufficient high-energy radiation to reach the imaging receptor.

In dental radiography, the goal is to achieve high-quality images while minimizing radiation exposure to both the patient and the operator. The GBX-2 filter effectively meets these requirements, ensuring the resulting images are clear and diagnostic while adhering to safety protocols.

Other filters may not provide the same level of performance or may not meet regulatory standards for dental radiography, making the GBX-2 the preferred choice in this context.
