<p>An enclosure (20) useful in enclosing a dental X-ray film pack upon taking an X-ray picture of a tooth is formed of an enclosing portion (21) and a holding portion (22) extending from the enclosing portion. To permit enclosure of a dental X-ray film pack (1) provided with a bite block (8), the enclosing portion (21) is formed of two separate sheets (20a,20b). After inserting the bite block (8) into a basal part of the holding portion (22), the pack (1) is covered between the two sheets and the two sheets are then fusion-bonded to seal the pack (1) within the enclosing portion (21). The holding portion (22) has a length sufficient to extend out of an oral cavity when the enclosing portion is inserted in the oral cavity. After taking the X-ray picture of the tooth, the dentist holds the enclosure (20) at the holding portion (22), takes the enclosing portion (21) out of the cavity, and then tears off the enclosure (20) from a side of the holding portion (22), so that the dental X-ray film pack (1) falls out of the enclosure (20). The dentist is therefore free from the potential danger that the patient's saliva may stick to him. <IMAGE></p> |
