An OPG machine is a specialized X-

ray system that captures a single,

panoramic image of the entire mouth,

including all the teeth, jaws, and

surrounding structures. It is primarily

used for diagnosing impacted teeth,

planning orthodontic treatment,

assessing jaw fractures, and

evaluating overall oral health. This

machine is commonly found in dental

clinics, orthodontic practices, and oral

surgery centers. The scan is quick and

provides a broad overview, making it

an essential tool for comprehensive

dental diagnosis and treatment

planning.
