OPG - 1 | Principles , Types , Techniques | Oral Radiology | Animated Explanation

Explore the fascinating world of dental radiography in our latest video, where we dive deep into the principles of panoramic imaging, specifically focusing on the Orthopantomogram (OPG). This imaging modality offers a comprehensive view of the dental arches, capturing images through a unique process that minimizes overlaps and unsharpness. We unravel how the panoramic machine operates, the significance of the focal trough, and the distinctions between real, double, and ghost images. Whether you're a dental professional or simply curious about the technology behind dental care, this video is packed with insightful information and practical demonstrations. Don't miss out on enhancing your understanding of OPG and its crucial role in dental diagnostics. Watch the full video to grasp the entire concept and see these principles in action!
