Sounds like the took a panoramic xray..
The purpose of this xray is to give both the doctor and hygienist a good look at your teeth and surrounding bone structure.. They're able to see if there are any abnormalities that they might want to look at a little closer by taking an xray of that specific area.. They're also able to look at your temporalmandibular joint (TMJ)..Health Question & Answer
