Overview

AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

The Panoramic X-Ray System Model A is a dental panoramic X-ray device designed for capturing comprehensive extraoral radiographic images of the maxillofacial region, including the teeth, jaws, nasal, and sinus areas. This system employs a rotating X-ray tube and detector to produce a single panoramic image, enabling dentists to assess dental and skeletal structures in a single view without the need for multiple individual exposures. It is classified as an extraoral X-ray unit with a built-in timer, facilitating precise exposure control during imaging procedures.

This device is intended for use in dental offices and clinics, where it is operated by trained dental professionals to obtain panoramic radiographs for diagnostic purposes. Supplied as a reusable medical device, it requires proper maintenance, calibration, and adherence to radiation safety protocols. The system is not sterile and is regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K772164) as a Class II device under regulation number 872.1800, with no indication of MRI compatibility. Installation typically involves floor mounting, as referenced in historical marketing materials, though specifications do not confirm current configurations. No details regarding sterilization or single-use are provided in the regulatory data.

  • What is the Sybron Panoramic X-Ray System Model A used for?

    The Sybron Panoramic X-Ray System Model A is designed specifically for dental professionals to obtain comprehensive panoramic radiographs of the maxillofacial region. This includes imaging the teeth, jaws, nasal cavities, and sinuses in a single exposure, eliminating the need for multiple individual X-rays. It aids in diagnosing dental and skeletal conditions by providing a complete view of the oral and maxillofacial structures.

  • How is the Sybron Panoramic X-Ray System Model A supplied and maintained?

    The Sybron Panoramic X-Ray System Model A is supplied as a reusable medical device, meaning it is intended for repeated use in dental offices and clinics. Proper maintenance, including regular calibration, is essential to ensure accurate imaging and compliance with radiation safety protocols. The device is not sterile, so it must be handled and cleaned according to standard infection control practices for reusable medical equipment.

  • Is the Sybron Panoramic X-Ray System Model A single-use or reusable?

    The Sybron Panoramic X-Ray System Model A is explicitly designed as a reusable device. Unlike single-use items, it requires ongoing maintenance, cleaning, and calibration to function safely and effectively. This classification aligns with its intended use in clinical settings where durability and repeated use are necessary.

  • What installation considerations should be made for the Sybron Panoramic X-Ray System Model A?

    Historical marketing materials for the Sybron Panoramic X-Ray System Model A reference floor mounting as the typical installation method. While the current specifications do not explicitly confirm this, floor mounting is likely the standard approach to ensure stability and proper positioning for panoramic imaging. Installation should adhere to manufacturer guidelines and local regulations to ensure safety and optimal performance.

  • Does the Sybron Panoramic X-Ray System Model A have any special storage requirements?

    Since the Sybron Panoramic X-Ray System Model A is a reusable and non-sterile device, its storage should follow general guidelines for medical imaging equipment. It should be kept in a clean, dry environment protected from physical damage, extreme temperatures, and direct sunlight. Additionally, storage areas should be secure to prevent unauthorized access and ensure compliance with radiation safety protocols.
