In most cases, most X-ray examinations require the patient to center or snap a plastic sheet with X-ray film.
Some dentists are now using digital X-rays. To take digital X-rays, your dentist places the sensor on teeth that look like a piece of film. Once the photo is taken, the dentist can adjust the contrast and brightness of the image and even find the smallest attenuation area. The other benefit of digital X-rays is reduced radiation exposure and reduced photo time, which helps eliminate treatment interruptions.
Panoramic radiographs allow your dentist to see the entire structure of your mouth in one image. In a large movie, panoramic X-rays look at your upper and lower teeth and lower jaw.
It is obvious that one type of X-ray is usually not visible on the other type. Panoramic X-Ray will give your dentist a comprehensive, comprehensive view where you can see your entire mouth on a single film while other X-rays cannot be displayed. On the other hand, you may need close-up X-rays to show highly detailed images of smaller areas, making it easier for dentists to see the attenuation between teeth. X-rays are not indiscriminately specified. Your dentist needs to provide diagnostic information that each X-ray can provide.
