Orthopantomogram (OPG)
Smile Studio is equipped with modern and highly advanced dental equipment to ensure our patients receive the best and the most effective treatment. We have an orthopantomogram machine at our state-of-the-art dental clinic which has revolutionised the process of capturing pictures of internal parts of the body and bones. Our efforts focus on integrating modern and technologically advanced dental techniques to offer the best treatments to our patients.
An OPG is nothing but a panoramic X-ray of the lower jaw, upper jaw, and the teeth. The advanced OPG machine is specially developed so that it can rotate around a patient’s head at the time of the scan. An OPG typically takes around 20 seconds.
An OPG is used to detect
- Misaligned jaw
- Fractures
- Infection
- Surgical planning
The benefits of OPG include
- Pain-free
- Easy and quick process
- There is no radiation left after the process is complete
