Digital Panorex

Here at our Enid, OK General Dentsitry, we utilize advanced technology for a variety of diagnostic and dental procedures, including the Panorex digital imaging system. Panorex is an imaging machine that can identify a wide range of issues with the teeth, gums and bone that traditional x-rays are not able to find. We use this technology to aid in diagnosing orthodontic and dental problems while also looking at the overall structure of the teeth and mouth.


Patients who come into our office to use the Panorex will go through the following steps:


1. The patient comes into our office and sits on the Panorex chair


2. Their chin rests on a small ledge on the machine, while we position it properly


3. The Panorex machine rotates around their head at a 360-degree angle


By orbiting the head at 360 degrees, in about 20 seconds, the machine captures high quality images of the teeth, gums, head, bones and sinuses. With these images, Dr. Dennis Morehart is able to make sure the patient’s teeth are functioning as they could, as well as finding reasons for pain or other issues the patient is experiencing.


Visit our Enid, OK office to take advantage of this innovative imaging technology! For more information about Dr. Dennis Morehart and the services he offers at his practice, visit www.eniddentacare.com or call (580) 237-2213 to schedule an appointment.
