OPG (Orthopantomogram) X-Ray

OPG (Orthopantomogram) X-Ray at Kalyanam Hospital – Advanced Dental Imaging by Dr. Shreya Shukla

At Kalyanam Hospital, we are committed to providing advanced diagnostic facilities to ensure accurate and effective dental treatments. Our in-house OPG (Orthopantomogram) X-ray is an essential tool that allows Dr. Shreya Shukla to get a comprehensive view of a patient’s oral and jaw structure, aiding in precise diagnosis and treatment planning.

What is an OPG X-Ray?

An Orthopantomogram (OPG) X-ray is a specialized imaging technique that captures a panoramic view of the entire mouth, including the teeth, jaws, temporomandibular joints (TMJ), and surrounding structures. Unlike traditional dental X-rays that focus on a small area, an OPG provides a complete picture of both upper and lower jaws in a single scan.

Our in-house OPG X-ray facility offers several advantages, including:

  • Comprehensive Dental Diagnosis: Captures a full-mouth image for better assessment of oral health.
  • Quick and Painless Imaging: The procedure is non-invasive, fast, and comfortable for patients.
  • Low Radiation Exposure: Uses minimal radiation compared to traditional X-rays, ensuring patient safety.
  • Immediate Results: Enables Dr. Shreya Shukla to analyze results instantly and plan the necessary treatment.
  • Accurate Treatment Planning: Helps in diagnosing issues like wisdom teeth impaction, jaw disorders, and orthodontic conditions.

How OPG X-Ray Supports Dental Treatments

The OPG X-ray plays a crucial role in diagnosing and planning treatments for various dental conditions, including:

  • Orthodontic Treatment: Assessing jaw alignment and planning braces or aligners.
  • Wisdom Teeth Evaluation: Detecting impactions and planning extractions if necessary.
  • Gum Disease and Bone Loss: Identifying periodontal conditions and bone deterioration.
  • Jaw Disorders and TMJ Issues: Diagnosing temporomandibular joint problems for effective management.
