multiple little xrays that are taken from inside (intra-oral) the mouth, the panographic x-ray is taken from the outside (extra-oral) of the mouth in a comfortable quick manner.
This film shows us many things that the intra-oral x-rays can not such as sinuses, impacted wisdom teeth, tumors, bone density problems, developing second teeth and more.
