Child Panoramic
NOTE: This standard panoramic projection is ativated when the patient size
selection is pedo (child).
Description Child panoramic is a common panoramic projection
adapted to the specific infantile morphology.
By taking advantage of the shorter shape of a child’s
jaw, it’s possible to achieve a good orthogonality of
the X-ray beam to the dentition in the premolar area,
and as a consequence un-deformed images of those
teeth with little crown overlap, while covering the
entire dento-maxillary complex including TMJ.
