The shooting of the 3-D panoramic X-ray provides a clear
insight into the bone and soft-tissue structures of the
patient, and the data are used to reconstruct the
three-dimensional image of the anatomy of the patient's
oral cavity. This is especially important when planning
the placement of implants, because accurate data and
insights are obtained about the depth, width and density
of the bone, the proximity of blood and nerve vessels, the
placement of the sinus cavities, etc., which are extremely
important to know when making accurate measurements before
implant placement.
