Abstract: A dental sensor clamp has a clamp body with a connector on one end for connecting the sensor clamp to a bite plate. A clamp body opposite end has a fixed stop locatable adjacent an apical area of a tooth. A clamping slide is mounted within a thickness of the clamp body, and the clamping slide supports a member providing a resilient clamping force upon the member being moved against the sensor and the fixed stop. The dental sensor clamp reliably secures an imaging sensor adjacent the apical area of the tooth.
