Digital OPG (Panoramic) X-Rays.

A single digital OPG scan captures your entire mouth — all teeth, both jaws, the sinuses and jaw joints — in one low-radiation image. Om Dental Clinic uses digital OPG for accurate diagnosis of implants, wisdom teeth, and full-mouth planning.

What is digital opg?

One panoramic image of your entire mouth — teeth, jaws, sinuses and joints.

A digital OPG (orthopantomogram) is a panoramic X-ray that captures your entire mouth in a single image — all the teeth, both upper and lower jaws, the sinuses, and the jaw (TMJ) joints. Unlike small bitewing X-rays that show a few teeth, an OPG gives the whole picture.

At Om Dental Clinic, the digital OPG is a key diagnostic tool for planning implants, assessing wisdom teeth, detecting cysts or infections, evaluating jawbone levels, and planning full-mouth treatment. Because it is digital, the image appears on screen in seconds with a fraction of the radiation of older film X-rays.
In one sentence
A digital OPG is a single low-radiation panoramic X-ray showing your entire mouth — used to plan implants, wisdom teeth removal and full-mouth treatment.
Why choose wisdom teeth removal

Six reasons digital OPG improves your diagnosis.

Sees the whole mouth

One image captures all teeth, both jaws, the sinuses and jaw joints — far more than a small bitewing X-ray.

Low radiation

Digital sensors use a fraction of the radiation of older film X-rays, making it a safe diagnostic tool.

Instant results

The image appears on screen within seconds — no waiting for film to develop, no repeat exposures.

Plans implants & extractions

Essential for assessing jawbone height for implants and the position of impacted wisdom teeth.

Detects hidden problems

Reveals cysts, infections, bone loss and impacted teeth that are invisible during a normal examination.

Better treatment planning

The full-mouth view supports accurate planning for orthodontics, full-mouth rehabilitation and more.
How it works

Your OPG scan, step by step.

Quick, comfortable, and completely contactless — you simply stand still.

Yes. Digital OPG uses a very low dose of radiation — a fraction of older film X-rays — and a lead apron is used as a standard precaution. It is safe for routine diagnostic and treatment-planning use. We always follow the lowest-dose principle.

A digital OPG shows your entire mouth in one panoramic image — all upper and lower teeth, both jawbones, the sinuses, and the jaw (TMJ) joints. It reveals impacted teeth, cysts, infections, bone loss and other problems invisible during a normal examination.

The scan itself takes about 20 seconds, during which the machine arm rotates around your head. You simply stand still — nothing touches your mouth. The entire appointment, including positioning and review, takes just a few minutes.

A digital OPG is typically taken before dental implant placement, for assessing wisdom teeth, for full-mouth treatment planning, and to investigate unexplained pain or swelling. Your dentist will recommend it when a full-mouth view is needed.

At Om Dental Clinic, a standalone digital OPG scan is around ₹400. It is often included as part of implant, wisdom-tooth and full-mouth treatment planning. A combined OPG + CBCT 3D scan for complex cases is around ₹1,500.

No. An OPG is a 2D panoramic image, while CBCT is a 3D scan. OPG is excellent for an overall view and most planning; CBCT is used for detailed 3D assessment in complex implant, surgical and endodontic cases. We use each where appropriate.
