About This Service

State-of-the-art diagnostic imaging for comprehensive dental assessment. Essential for accurate treatment planning and monitoring.
OPG (Orthopantomogram) and IOPA (Intraoral Periapical) X-ray imaging are two common types of dental X-rays used to diagnose and treat various oral health conditions.

OPG (Orthopantomogram)
 What it is: An OPG is a panoramic X-ray that captures a wide view of your entire mouth, including all your teeth, upper and lower jaws, and surrounding structures like the sinuses and jaw joints.
  How it works: The X-ray machine rotates around your head, taking a series of images that are combined to create a single panoramic view.

Uses of OPG
   Assessing wisdom teeth
    Evaluating jawbone health
    Diagnosing temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders
    Planning orthodontic treatment
    Detecting cysts, tumors, or other abnormalities
    Identifying fractures or dislocations

Benefits of OPG
    Provides a comprehensive view of the entire mouth
    Relatively low radiation exposure
    Comfortable and convenient for patients

Uses of IOPA
    Detecting cavities
    Evaluating the health of tooth roots and surrounding bone
    Diagnosing dental abscesses or other infections
    Assessing the fit of dental restorations (fillings, crowns)
    Examining the progress of root canal treatment

Benefits of IOPA
    Detecting cavities
    Evaluating the health of tooth roots and surrounding bone
    Diagnosing dental abscesses or other infections
    Assessing the fit of dental restorations (fillings, crowns)
    Examining the progress of root canal treatment

Which Type of X-ray is Right for Me?
The type of X-ray your dentist recommends will depend on your individual needs and the specific dental issue being evaluated. OPGs are often used for routine checkups or when a broad overview of your oral health is needed. IOPAs are typically used when a closer look at specific teeth or areas is required.

Safety of Dental X-rays
If you have any concerns about dental X-rays, don't hesitate to discuss them with your dentist. They can explain the procedure, its benefits, and any potential risks to help you make informed decisions about your dental care.
