Digital OPG

At Star Diagnostics, we offer Digital OPG (Orthopantomogram) scanning – a specialized X-ray that captures the entire mouth in a single image, including the upper and lower jaw, teeth, TMJ (jaw joints), and surrounding bones. It’s a quick, painless, and highly effective tool used by dentists and ENT specialists to plan treatments with precision.

What is a Digital OPG?

A Digital OPG is a panoramic dental X-ray. Unlike regular dental X-rays that show only a few teeth, an OPG gives a wide-angle view of all the teeth and jawbones – in one shot. It’s done using low radiation and modern digital imaging technology, which ensures sharper images with minimal exposure.

Why is an OPG Needed?

Doctors may recommend a Digital OPG for:

• Checking for tooth decay, cavities, or infections

• Detecting impacted teeth, especially wisdom teeth

• Diagnosing jaw joint (TMJ) disorders

• Planning for braces, implants, or dentures

• Evaluating facial trauma or jaw fractures

• Spotting cysts, tumors, or abnormalities in the jaw bone

What to Expect During the Scan

• The scan is completely painless and takes just 5–10 minutes

• You’ll be asked to bite on a small plastic piece while the machine rotates around your head

• No need to remove clothes, but metal objects (like earrings or chains) should be taken off

• The image appears instantly on screen, and a radiologist will provide a report soon after
