Panoramic X-Rays

One quick, comfortable scan captures your entire mouth in a single image. Particularly valuable for orthodontic planning with Invisalign and wisdom tooth evaluation, this technology reveals hidden problems like impacted teeth or jaw issues. These x-rays are taken outside the mouth, so they are especially helpful for young children or adults with a strong gag reflex.
