Dental X-Ray Services in Ghatlodia

Braces move teeth through the bone, so the orthodontist must know exactly where every tooth and root sits before starting. For patients from Ghatlodia, this means X-rays are an early and important step in planning braces.

Teeth that look crooked on the surface may have roots angled in different ways. Some teeth may still be under the gum. The images show all of this and help set a plan that suits your mouth.

X-Rays Ghatlodia Patients Usually Need Before Braces

• OPG: Shows all the teeth, roots, jaws and any teeth that have not come in.
• Close-up images: An IOPA may be added to look at a single tooth or root in detail.
• CBCT: Advised in some cases, such as a buried canine or a complex jaw position.

What the Orthodontist Looks For in Ghatlodia Patients

Orthodontist Dr. Tanisha Kkeswani studies the images to check root length and shape, missing or extra teeth, and the position of wisdom teeth. She also looks for hidden decay or bone problems that should be treated before braces go on. Any cavity found is usually filled first, so that the teeth are healthy when tooth movement begins.

From X-Ray to Braces Plan for Ghatlodia Families

Once the images and the examination are complete, the orthodontist explains the plan. She shows you how the teeth are expected to move and roughly how long treatment may take. For children and teenagers, the OPG also shows which permanent teeth are still developing. Families in Ghatlodia, near Bhagwat Vidyapith, can learn more about the options on our teeth braces page. Further images may be taken during treatment to check progress.

Children often see the orthodontist for the first time in their early teens, when most milk teeth have been replaced. By then, the OPG can show whether any permanent tooth is missing or stuck in the bone. A canine that has not come through is a common example. Finding it early allows the orthodontist to plan around it, sometimes guiding it into place during treatment. For adults, the X-ray also checks the health of old fillings and the bone around each tooth before braces begin.
