Dental OPG Digital X-Ray at Dr Budhiraja's Oral-Dental Care Clinic
At Dr Budhiraja’s Ora-Dental Care Clinic, we believe in offering precise diagnosis and advanced technology to ensure the best dental care for our patients. One of our key diagnostic tools is the Dental OPG (Orthopantomogram) Digital X-Ray, a modern, non-invasive imaging technique that provides a panoramic view of the entire mouth in a single scan.
What is an OPG Digital X-Ray?
An OPG (Orthopantomogram) is a specialized type of dental X-ray that captures the entire lower face – including all teeth, both jaws, and surrounding bone structures – in a single image. This digital X-ray is fast, painless, and plays a vital role in diagnosing dental issues that may not be visible during a regular clinical examination.
Why Choose Digital OPG?
Digital OPG is far superior to traditional X-rays due to its:
- High image clarity
- Reduced radiation exposure
- Quick scanning process
- Immediate image availability
- Easy digital storage and sharing
It is especially useful for:
- Detecting impacted teeth, especially wisdom teeth
- Planning orthodontic treatments (braces, aligners)
- Evaluating jawbone structure and health
- Diagnosing cysts, tumors, and infections
- Assessing TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint) issues
- Planning implants or surgical procedures
Our Technology
At Dr Budhiraja’s Ora-Dental Care Clinic, we use state-of-the-art digital OPG machines that deliver highly detailed images while ensuring patient comfort and safety. The digital format allows us to zoom in and examine areas closely, leading to more accurate diagnoses and treatment planning.
Who Needs an OPG X-Ray?
An OPG X-ray may be recommended for:
- Children and teenagers beginning orthodontic treatment
- Adults with chronic dental or jaw pain
- Patients with missing or impacted teeth
- Individuals preparing for dental surgeries or implants
Our experienced dental team evaluates each case carefully and recommends an OPG only when clinically necessary.
