Panorex (Panoramic X-ray Machine)
A Panorex, or panoramic X-ray machine, is a device used in dental imaging to capture a single, comprehensive image of the entire mouth, including teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures. It rotates around the head, providing a wide view that helps dentists diagnose issues like impacted teeth, jaw disorders, or bone problems. The process is quick, pain-free, and involves minimal radiation. This panoramic imaging allows for efficient evaluation and treatment planning, offering a clear visualization of the entire oral and maxillofacial area in one image.
