Panoramic X-Rays utilize modern technology to provide comprehensive dental imaging for patients from age 3 to 95. We prioritize patient comfort, especially for those who may experience dental anxiety or fear, ensuring a stress-free and efficient experience. This advanced imaging method allows for precise diagnosis and treatment planning, contributing to improved oral health outcomes.
Panoramic X-Rays Explained
Panoramic X-rays offer a comprehensive view of your entire mouth in a single image. This technology is instrumental in diagnosing and treating dental issues in patients of all ages, from 3 to 95, across Rochester, Mankato, Blooming Prairie, New Richland and Owatonna, MN.
The procedure involves a rotating arm that moves around your head, capturing images of your teeth, jaw and surrounding structures. It is quick, painless and requires no special preparation. This full-mouth view aids in identifying problems like impacted teeth, bone abnormalities, tumors, infections and fractures that aren’t visible in standard X-rays.
The benefits of panoramic X-rays are significant. They provide crucial information that helps in planning treatments for dentures, braces, extractions and implants. Additionally, this technology can detect problems in the nasal area, sinuses, jaw joints and even reveal potential issues with the carotid arteries.
In our Minnesota clinics, we utilize panoramic X-rays to ensure comprehensive dental care for our patients. Early detection of dental issues leads to timely treatment, improving overall oral health outcomes. For instance, in children and teens, these X-rays can help monitor the development and position of wisdom teeth.
