Dental X-Ray Services in Chandkheda

Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to come in, usually in the late teens or early twenties. For many adults in Chandkheda, they cause pain, swelling or food trapping at the back of the mouth. Often the tooth is only partly visible, or not visible at all.

To see the full picture, the dentist usually asks for an OPG. This panoramic X-ray shows all four wisdom teeth in one image, along with the other teeth, the jaws and the sinuses.

What the OPG Reveals for Chandkheda Patients

• Position: Whether each wisdom tooth is upright, tilted or lying sideways.
• Impaction: Whether the tooth is stuck under the gum or bone.
• Nearby teeth: Whether the wisdom tooth is pushing on or causing decay in the tooth in front.
• Nerve closeness: How near the lower roots lie to the nerve canal in the jaw.
• Space: Whether there is room in the jaw for the tooth to come in fully.

Deciding What to Do About a Chandkheda Wisdom Tooth

Not every wisdom tooth needs to come out. If it is upright, healthy and easy to clean, the dentist may simply keep an eye on it. If it is impacted, repeatedly infected or harming the next tooth, removal may be advised. The OPG helps decide whether a simple or surgical extraction is needed. When the roots sit very close to the nerve, the dentist may suggest a CBCT for a 3D view.

Your OPG Visit From Chandkheda

You remove metal items like earrings and chains, then stand in the machine and bite on a guide. The arm moves around your head while you stay still. The image is then reviewed with you in the same visit. Patients travelling from Chandkheda, around Visat Cross Roads, can plan the OPG and the wisdom tooth consultation together to save a trip.

Upper wisdom teeth can also sit close to the sinus floor. The OPG shows this relationship, which matters if the tooth needs to be removed. After a wisdom tooth is taken out, a follow-up image is not always required. The dentist will advise one only if healing seems slow or if there was a concern about the roots during removal.
