Searching for an OPG scan Pune dentists recommend? Simply put, an OPG (Orthopantomogram) is a full-mouth panoramic X-ray that captures all your teeth, both jaws, the TMJ (jaw joint) and, in addition, the surrounding bone in a single image.
Because it shows the full mouth at once, it is the most commonly requested dental X-ray and, therefore, the essential first step before most dental treatments. In addition, at Planora Imaging Centre, every OPG is reported by Dr. Manasi Kajale Salunke — MDS specialist in Oral Medicine & Radiology — with same-day reports available.
Bone assessment and implant site planning before surgery.
Braces and aligner planning — full arch view in one image.
