Panoramic X-Rays
In the Rossford, Toledo & Wood County Area
Panoramic X-Rays
One of the essential diagnostic tools in modern dentistry is the panoramic x-ray.
Panoramic x-rays are two-dimensional images that provide a very broad view of the teeth, jaws, sinuses, jaw joints and nasal areas. They are not designed to find cavities like other x-rays. Rather, they reveal problems such as impacted teeth, bone abnormalities and fractures, infections, and cysts or tumors. Because of this, they are a staple technology in any oral or maxillofacial practice. Panoramic x-rays provide an accurate and trusted diagnosis so that the most viable treatment plans can be executed.
What are the benefits of panoramic x-rays?
• They offer a comprehensive view of the mouth, not just target areas
• They aid in the diagnosis of various dental issues
• Their images are used to plan a wide range of procedures accurately
• They allow for early detection of hidden dental problems
• They reduce exposure to radiation
• They are quick and comfortable
When might you have a panoramic x-ray taken?
Panoramic x-rays are commonly used during routine check-ups to monitor oral health. They may also be used before surgical procedures or orthodontic treatments. For patients with jaw pain or TMD, panoramic x-rays are used to evaluate the joint's condition.
