Panorex

A panorex is a very impressive piece of imaging machinery in that it is capable of identifying many issues and structures that a routine dental x-ray is not. Initially you will sit in a chair or stand with your chin on a small ledge. Once positioned in the machine, it will rotate around your entire head taking a full 360 degree view of the teeth, sinuses, jaw bones and surrounding structures.

The ability to view the full structure of this area as a whole is very informative to the dentist. It will allow us to see any potential problems and make sure that everything is functioning as it should be. The panorex is capable of viewing specific types of structural problems, infections or asymmetry. This makes it an indispensible tool in the dental office.
