Dental X-Rays & OPG
Oral medicine and radiology are a vital part of modern dentistry since it integrates specialised diagnosis and high-level imaging equipment.
At Aline Dent, we provide comprehensive oral medicine and radiology services, including advanced digital dental X-rays and OPG scans to detect underlying issues early. Our goal is to identify the root cause of dental and oral conditions using modern diagnostic tools, ensuring precise treatment and long-term oral health.
What is Oral Medicine & Radiology?
Oral Medicine and Radiology is a specialized field of dentistry focused on the diagnosis and non-surgical management of oral diseases, supported by advanced imaging techniques.
This includes evaluating:
- Tooth decay and hidden infections
- Gum diseases and bone loss
- Jaw disorders and facial pain
- Oral lesions and precancerous conditions
Radiology plays a crucial role by using digital dental X-rays, OPG scans, and other imaging techniques to provide a clear and detailed view of the oral structures for accurate diagnosis.
Advanced Oral Radiology Services
Digital Dental X-Rays
Our digital X-rays are clear and precise images that deposit minimum radiation intensity, thus dental complications can be safely and effortlessly diagnosed.
OPG (Orthopantomogram) Scans
An OPG scan is the one that gives the image of all the teeth, jaws, and the surrounding structures so that our specialists can check them thoroughly. In the process of planning processes such as extractions, orthodontics, and implants it is necessary.
Cone Beam CT
CBCT scans are 3D images that are excellent in giving the accuracy that cannot be achieved in any other case like moulding of implants, root canal procedures and in the examination of abnormalities in the jawbone.
Intraoral Periapical Radiographs
IOPA radiographs are useful in diagnosing cavities, infections and pathologies in the diagnosis of individual teeth and bone structures around them.
When Do You Need a Dental X-Ray or OPG?
A digital dental X-ray or OPG scan may be recommended in the following situations:
- Persistent tooth pain or sensitivity
- Cavities not visible during clinical examination
- Root canal treatment planning
- Wisdom tooth assessment
- Braces and orthodontic evaluation
- Jaw pain or TMJ disorders
- Gum disease and bone loss analysis
Early diagnosis using imaging helps prevent complications and ensures timely treatment.
