Dental X Rays OPG
About Dental X Rays OPG:
Dental X-Rays in Chatswood, also known as OPG scans, provide a panoramic view of the lower face in a single image. This wide scan shows all the teeth in both the upper and lower jaws, including those that haven’t yet erupted, such as wisdom teeth.
An OPG X-ray also allows dentists to assess the jawbone and the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which connects the jaw to the skull. This makes it an important tool for diagnosing dental issues, planning treatments, and monitoring overall oral health.
At our Chatswood dental clinic, we use modern OPG technology to ensure accurate, safe, and detailed imaging for effective dental care.
Advantage of Dental X Rays OPG:
- Broad coverage of facial bones and teeth including the TMJ (temperomandibular joint).
- Low patient radiation dose.
- Convenience of examination for the patient.
- Ability to be used in patients who are restricted in opening their mouth.
- Short time required for producing the image.
- Useful visual aid in patient education and case presentation.
