A Panorex, also known as a panoramic X-ray, is very useful for diagnosing problems and monitoring the developments in your jaws and teeth. It can help our dentist, Dr. Gretchen Drees, examine impacted wisdom teeth and detect fractures and can even be used to help fit a patient for dentures. It is also very useful for examining patients who have trouble opening their jaws. If you have a dental appointment coming up and would like to find out if we can use Panorex X-rays in Ashland, Virginia, call Ashland Dental Arts at 804-798-7388 today.
