Book nowA panoramic X-ray (OPG, orthopantomogram) is a single wide image that shows all the teeth of the upper and lower jaw, the jawbone, the sinuses and the jaw joints at once. It helps detect hidden cavities, impacted wisdom teeth, cysts, areas of inflammation and bone loss, which is why it is usually taken before implants, orthodontic treatment or tooth extraction. The scan takes only a few minutes and gives the dentist a full overview of the mouth.
- Before planning dental implants, to assess bone volume and quality
- Before orthodontic treatment (braces, aligners), to see the position of all teeth
- For wisdom-tooth pain or impacted teeth, to locate them precisely
- When a cyst, bone infection or hidden decay is suspected
- For a general check of overall oral health before treatment begins

FAQ
Does a panoramic X-ray hurt?
No, it is a painless, non-contact scan; you only need to stand still.
How long does it take?
The scan itself usually takes 10–20 seconds, and the whole visit only a few minutes.
Is the radiation dose safe?
The dose of a digital OPG is very low — comparable to a few days of natural background radiation — so it is considered safe when clinically indicated.
Can I have an OPG during pregnancy?
Tell your dentist if you are pregnant; the scan is usually done only when necessary and with protective measures.
What is the difference between an OPG and a 3D CBCT scan?
An OPG is a flat overview image, while CBCT is three-dimensional; for complex implants or surgery the dentist may additionally recommend a CBCT.
Can I take the image to another clinic?
Yes, you can receive the digital image as a file or print-out and show it to any dentist.
