OPG
At Bhanu Dental Care & Implant Centre, we provide advanced digital OPG X-Ray in Gurgaon for accurate diagnosis and effective dental treatment planning. OPG, also known as Orthopantomogram, is a panoramic dental X-ray that captures the complete view of the upper jaw, lower jaw, teeth, jaw joints, and surrounding facial structures in a single image. This advanced diagnostic tool helps dentists identify dental problems quickly and plan precise treatments with better accuracy.
OPG plays an important role in modern dentistry by helping diagnose impacted teeth, jaw disorders, infections, bone problems, tooth decay, cysts, fractures, and orthodontic issues. It is widely used before procedures like dental implants, root canal treatment, braces, wisdom tooth extraction, and oral surgeries.
At Bhanu Dental Care, we use modern digital imaging technology to provide clear, safe, and low-radiation OPG scans for patients of all age groups.
What Is an OPG X-Ray?
An OPG (Orthopantomogram) is a panoramic dental X-ray that provides a broad two-dimensional image of the entire mouth and jaw area. Unlike small dental X-rays that show only a few teeth, OPG captures all teeth, jawbones, sinuses, temporomandibular joints (TMJ), and surrounding structures in one scan.
The scan is quick, painless, and highly useful for diagnosing various dental and oral conditions.
Why Is OPG Important?
OPG X-rays help dentists:
- Detect impacted wisdom teeth
- Plan dental implant placement
- Diagnose jawbone problems
- Identify tooth infections and cysts
- Evaluate orthodontic alignment issues
- Detect fractures or injuries
- Examine sinus and jaw conditions
- Assess overall oral health accurately
When Is OPG Recommended?
Your dentist may recommend an OPG scan for:
- Dental implant planning
- Wisdom tooth extraction
- Braces and orthodontic treatment
- Root canal treatment evaluation
- Jaw pain or TMJ disorders
- Oral surgery planning
- Tooth eruption problems
