Dental X-Ray Services in Sarkhej

The roots of the upper back teeth sit very close to the sinuses, the air spaces behind the cheekbones. Patients from Sarkhej and the nearby Makarba area are sometimes surprised to learn this. It explains why a dental problem and a sinus problem can feel similar.

A panoramic (OPG) X-ray shows all the teeth, both jaws and the sinuses in one image. At Kkeswani Dental & Polyclinic, the dentist uses this wide view to study how the upper teeth relate to the sinus floor. The image is taken in our own X-ray room when there is a clear reason for it.

Why Sarkhej Patients May Feel Pain in the Upper Teeth

• Shared nerves: Pressure in the sinus can make several upper teeth ache at once.
• Tooth infection: An infected upper tooth may cause discomfort that spreads towards the cheek.
• Close roots: Some roots reach right up to the sinus floor, which the OPG can show.
• Hidden decay: A cavity in an upper molar may feel like a dull pressure rather than sharp pain.

What the OPG Helps a Sarkhej Dentist Decide

The image helps the dentist see whether pain is more likely coming from a tooth or needs a check with a physician for the sinus. It shows how close the roots are before an upper tooth is removed or treated. For implants in the upper back jaw, it also shows how much bone is available below the sinus, though a CBCT scan may be needed for a 3D view.

Next Steps for Sarkhej Patients

If a tooth is the cause, the dentist may suggest a filling or a root canal. If an upper tooth has to be removed, the image helps plan a careful extraction. When the teeth look healthy and the problem seems to be the sinus, you will be advised to see a physician. The dentist explains which of these fits your case.

People sometimes notice upper tooth pain that gets worse when they bend forward or during a cold. This pattern can point towards the sinus rather than a single tooth. Other times, one tooth is clearly sensitive to hot, cold or tapping, which suggests a dental cause. Describing these details helps the dentist choose the right image and reach a clearer answer.
