Intraoral dental radiographic film packet with formed comfort enhancing perimeter

An intraoral x-ray film packet comprising:

• (a) a first thermoplastic sheet forming a first face of said x-ray film packet and having a first generally semicylindrical perimetric element formed therein;
• (b) a second sheet and a third sheet which overlaps said second sheet, said second and third sheets forming a second face of said x-ray film packet, said second face including a second generally semicylindrical perimetric element formed therein;
• (c) a first continuous perimetric seal positioned outside of said first and second generally semicylindrical perimetric elements;
• and
• (d) a second continuous perimetric seal positioned inside of said first and second generally semicylindrical perimetric elements, said first and second continuous perimetric seals in combination with said first and second generally semicylindrical perimetric elements yielding a tubular perimetric cushion.

An intraoral x-ray film packet comprising:

• (a) a first outer sheet having a first generally semicylindrical perimetric element formed therein;
• (b) a second outer sheet including a second generally semicylindrical perimetric element formed therein, said first and second generally semicylindrical perimetric elements forming a tubular perimetric cushion;
• (c) a film chip residing between said first outer sheet and said second outer sheet;
• (d) a first continuous perimetric seal affixing said first outer sheet and said second outer sheet and positioned outside of said tubular perimetric cushion;
• and
• (e) a second continuous perimetric seal affixing said first outer sheet and said second outer sheet and positioned between said tubular perimetric cushion and said film chip.
