In [B. De Bruyn, A. Pasini, Minimal scattered sets and polarized embeddings of dual polar spaces, European J. Combin. 28 (2007) 1890-1909], it was shown that every full polarized embedding of a dual polar space of rank n=2 has vector dimension at least 2^n. In the present paper, we will give alternative proofs of that result which hold for more general classes of dense near polygons. These alternative proofs allow us to characterize full polarized embeddings of minimal vector dimension 2^n. Using this characterization result, we can prove a decomposition theorem for the embedding space. We will use this decomposition theorem to get information on the structure of the spin-embedding of the dual polar space DQ(2n,K).
