Some do them routinely. Others do them only for specific purposes, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Looking for gum disease and cavities that might otherwise be missed<\/li>\n<li>Understanding if TMD or other jaw problems are progressing<\/li>\n<li>Diagnosing an overactive gag reflex<\/li>\n<li>Looking for cysts<\/li>\n<li>Seeing fractures in jawbones or teeth<\/li>\n<li>Planning for braces, dentures, or implants<\/li>\n<li>And more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The unique circular view of a panoramic x-ray is taken using a rotating arm with an x-ray machine on it that moves around your head while you are either seated or standing, depending on the machine. The rotating arm moves slowly around your head while you remain still and face forward to take the panoramic x-ray. The image will be blurred and not usable by the dentist if you move your head, so it\u2019s important that you stay as still as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Once the panoramic x-ray has been generated, your dentist will magnify the image and examine it closely for either the specific problems they were concerned about or generally to see if any problems are detected. This vital diagnostic tool can help a dentist understand what\u2019s happening and how they can treat it. When used in conjunction with regular x-rays a dentist can get a much clearer picture of what\u2019s happening with your teeth and mouth than with other x-rays alone.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about panoramic x-rays or for diagnosis of your oral health concerns, reach out to an SDDA dentist now. It\u2019s the right time to make an appointment and get your problems resolved \u2013 before they get worse.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><b class=\"highlight\">To get your X-Rays done with our Panoramic equipment, call (619) 745-6870 to schedule your appointment<\/b><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Panoramic x-rays provide exactly what the definition of the word \u201cpanoramic\u201d suggests: A wide, sweeping view of what\u2019s happening in your mouth.
