RVG & OPG
Digital sensors capture detailed x-ray images with a fraction of the exposure found in traditional film x-rays.
Technological advancements in x-ray technology provide multiple benefits, from safety to improved treatment results.
BENEFITS:
RVG
We have a portable X-Ray at our clinic which comes in handy when we want to take a X-Ray of a few teeth. The portable X-Ray requires minimal radiation for image development making it very safe for children.
OPG
An OPG is a full mouth X-Ray. There are many advantages of an OPG. An OPG demonstrates the number, position and growth of all the teeth including those that have not yet surfaced or erupted through the gum, low patient radiation dose, convenience of examination for the patient as it captures all the teeth in one go, short time required for producing the image, useful visual aid in patient education.
An OPG is a good option for taking a child’s X-Ray because the child doesn’t have to cooperate for multiple X-Rays because all the teeth are captured in one shot.
