Digital Panoramic Radiographs

Blue Jay Family Dentistry uses digital panoramic radiographs to give Dr. Nickolas Felten a complete view of your mouth and jaw.

What Is a Panoramic Radiograph?

A panoramic radiograph is a single wide image that captures your entire mouth, including teeth, jaw, sinuses, and surrounding bone, in one pass around your head. Instead of piecing together several smaller X-rays, Dr. Felten gets a complete view of your oral structures in one comfortable scan that takes only moments to complete.

What Panoramic Imaging Offers

Full-Mouth Imaging

One scan captures your entire upper and lower jaw, giving Dr. Felten a complete view of your oral structures.

Wisdom Tooth Evaluation

Panoramic imaging shows the position and development of wisdom teeth before they cause problems.

Jaw & Bite Assessment

A wide view of the jaw helps identify bite issues, joint concerns, and structural irregularities.

Treatment Planning Support

Panoramic images support planning for implants, extractions, and orthodontic treatment.

Low-Radiation Digital Technology

Digital panoramic imaging uses significantly less radiation than traditional film-based X-rays.

Fast, Comfortable Imaging

The scan takes only moments and requires no biting down on uncomfortable film.

The Importance of Panoramic Radiographs

A panoramic radiograph gives Dr. Felten information that a standard X-ray cannot capture alone. A Complete Picture: Seeing your entire jaw and surrounding structures in one image helps catch issues that might otherwise go unnoticed. Early Detection: Panoramic imaging can reveal developing wisdom teeth, bone loss, or jaw irregularities before symptoms appear. Supporting Bigger Treatment Decisions: For implants, extractions, or orthodontic care, this wide view helps Dr. Felten plan treatment accurately.

Consult was great, service was top notch & pricing was fair. Dr Felten and staff were a great find in the neighborhood. I used to drive 45 minutes to my dentist for years, I wish I would’ve called them sooner. They don’t disappoint

I am a senior citizen who had a troublesome wisdom tooth that needed to come out. My experience was good and the results are great so far. To say I was cautious about the whole procedure is an understatement; but Dr. Felton and his assistant went above board to assure my comfort. Many, many thanks.
