About this test
The OPG captures the whole dentition, both jaw joints and the sinus floors in one low-dose exposure. It is the standard film before extractions and orthodontic treatment, and for assessing wisdom teeth, cysts and jaw fractures.
What it measures
- All erupted and unerupted teeth
- Jaw bone, cysts and lesions
- Temporomandibular joints and sinus floor
A note on results. A single test is one part of a clinical picture, not a diagnosis. Discuss your report with a qualified doctor, who will read it alongside your history and examination.
