An Orthopantomogram (OPG)—commonly called a panoramic dental X-ray—is an indispensable diagnostic tool that captures an expansive, wide-angle view of your entire lower face. Unlike small intraoral X-rays that focus on just two or three teeth, an OPG displays all upper and lower teeth, the maxillary sinuses, the advanced nickel-titaniuml cavity, and both temporomandibular (TMJ) jaw joints in a single continuous radiograph.
The scan is completely non-invasive and extraoral: no sensors or film packets are placed inside your mouth, making it exceptionally comfortable for patients with a sensitive gag reflex, children, or those experiencing lockjaw.
You simply stand in front of our modern digital panoramic unit while the rotating gantry glides smoothly around your head in just 12 to 15 seconds. The resulting digital image gives Dr. Amit a complete anatomical overview to plan orthodontics, evaluate unerupted wisdom teeth, and assess bone levels for full-mouth restorations.
