Digital X-Ray & Panoramic Financing

Pan/ceph digital radiography units price $25K–$60K depending on FOV and ceph add-on; intraoral digital sensors run $5K–$15K per operatory. CBCT machines often bundle pan as a mode and may replace standalone pan in new-build offices — evaluate the full imaging stack before splitting purchases.

Typical cost: $5,000–$60,000
