Production of Dental X-RaysOnline version Organize the steps correctly to describe the process of dental x-ray production. by Emily 1 Sort the following steps to correctly demonstrate how dental x-rays are produced. After entering the x-ray tubehead, the electrical current flows from the filament circuit to the step-down transformer. The x-ray beam travels down the position-indicating device. The electrical current travels from the control panel to the the x-ray tubehead. The dental radiographer presses the exposure button, activating the high-voltage circuit. The aluminum discs filter out the longer wavelengths from the x-ray beam. The bombarding electrons strike the tungsten target in the anode and create x-ray photons. The lead collimator restricts the size of the x-ray beam. The x-ray beam exits the tubehead at the opening of the position-indicating device. The electrons in the cathode accelerate across the x-ray tube to the tungsten target in the anode. The filament circuit heats the tungsten filament in the cathode, resulting in thermionic emission.
