Panorex

A Panorex is a specialized dental imaging technology that captures a single, panoramic image of your entire mouth, including the teeth, jaws, sinuses, and surrounding structures. This comprehensive view allows our dental team to accurately evaluate oral health concerns that may not be visible with traditional dental X-rays. Panorex imaging plays an important role in precise diagnosis and effective treatment planning.

What Is a Panorex Panoramic X-Ray?

A Panorex panoramic X-ray is an advanced imaging tool that produces a wide, 360-degree view of the mouth in one image. Unlike traditional dental X-rays, which focus on small sections of the teeth, a panoramic X-ray provides a full overview of the upper and lower jaws, tooth alignment, jaw joints, and surrounding anatomy.

This broad perspective helps our endodontist assess overall oral structures and identify conditions that may require specialized care.

How Is Panorex Imaging Used?

Panorex panoramic X-rays are commonly used to detect and evaluate dental and jaw issues that are difficult to identify with standard X-rays alone. These images are especially useful for:

  • Identifying impacted teeth, including wisdom teeth
  • Evaluating jaw alignment and joint concerns
  • Detecting cysts, tumors, or infections
  • Planning dental procedures such as extractions, implants, and orthodontic treatment

Because Panorex imaging provides a clear and comprehensive view, it allows for more informed treatment decisions and improved outcomes.

Is Panorex Imaging Safe?

Panoramic X-rays have been safely used in dentistry for more than 50 years. The level of radiation exposure during a Panorex scan is very low and carefully controlled. This makes panoramic imaging a safe and effective diagnostic tool when recommended by your dentist or endodontist.
