Types of dental photography
Types of tooth photography ====================================== There are types of dental photography that usually **Dentists** use these photography methods to obtain detailed information about teeth.... But there are different types of photography.... For example, orthodontic photography is different from photography to determine the condition of wisdom teeth... Ask us for help to refer to **the best dentist**... As mentioned, there are different types of photos taken of teeth and each one is considered for different operations... The types of taking photos of teeth can be introduced as follows:
### X-ray inside the mouth One type of dental imaging is that X-rays are used.... In this case, the focus is more on **decay between the teeth and enamel health** and in addition, dentists can also thoroughly check the bone density of the teeth. It should be noted that with this method, the health of the dental veneers, the thickness of the teeth, the sharpening of the teeth, etc., can be observed and treated.... This method is not particularly painful and is easy to perform, and you only need to sit on a chair to take pictures of the jaw and teeth. ### Periapical photography The other type of x-ray is periapical.... This imaging provides the dentist with a complete view from the root to the tooth enamel.... The dentist can also measure the condition of the gums with this type of imaging.... Abscess, tooth and gum infection, abnormality in tooth growth, and such things are among the things that the dentist can measure with periapical imaging. ### External X-ray imaging In external x-ray imaging, the overall condition of the jaw and teeth, including **wisdom teeth**, is measured, and with its help, the growth status of the teeth can be checked... You can also check the dental arches with x-rays... Another use of x-rays is to observe the empty areas of the teeth and the condition of the teeth.. ### Digital photos of teeth One of the most popular methods of photography that we discuss in the introduction of dental photography is digital photography.. One of the biggest advantages of digital dental photography is that it exposes the patient to less radiation, so there is no risk to the patient's health.. Another advantage of this type of dental photography is that it can be displayed in the fastest time.. In other words, the dentist can see the photo of your teeth in almost 1 second. They have the ability to zoom, this method is considered one of the best methods of photography. Of course, it should be noted that because this type of imaging, like some other types of dental imaging, has radiation, it may have complications, before which the dentist must consider all these conditions. ### cephalometric If you want to do orthodontics or check the angle of the jaw and the relationship between the teeth and jaws, one of the imaging methods you can use is cephalometry, which is written as projection cephalometry... Another advantage of this type of imaging is that you can examine the entire skull of the person and think about the necessary actions. ### CT scan of teeth Dental CT scan is one of the other methods of taking pictures of teeth... In CT scanning, three-dimensional images can be taken of teeth and the state of bones, respiratory tracts and implant design and orthodontic treatment methods can be fully examined... This method is considered one of the common and widely used methods.
Photography of teeth by tomogram method When the tissues prevent seeing the dental parts, one of the methods that can be used to see the teeth is a tomogram... a tomogram is also a type of X-ray and has many applications in determining the direction of the jaw and things like that.
### MRI imaging of teeth If it is necessary to take pictures of the soft tissues inside the mouth, the MRI method is generally used... MRI is also a three-dimensional method and provides you with a complete view of the teeth.... MRI is included in the introduction of dental imaging types in the most popular imaging methods.
What is an OPG photo? This type of photo refers to radiography and **types of dental photography**, which we have explained in this article about different methods....taking OPG photos is not a difficult task and it takes less than 1 minute to complete the photography, and this method is completely painless....OPG has unique advantages that have made it popular, which include: - Photography takes a little time. - It is painless and very comfortable. - The patient can also participate in the photography process. - Less radiation from this method and less risk to health - and … are among the advantages of this method. ### Methods of taking OPG photos OPG photos are usually taken in three ways: 1... direct method: In this method, a special electronic sensor is placed inside the mouth to take pictures of the teeth and gums in a completely basic way. 2... indirect method: In this type of procedure, X-ray scanners are used so that the photos can be seen in a certain way. 3... Medium method: This method is almost between the direct and indirect method that uses sensors and scanners. **Concluding Remarks** In general, there are different methods for taking photos of teeth, and in this article we have introduced the types of dental photography. Among these methods, CT scan, tomography, etc. can be mentioned. These radiographs are called OPG, and its features include ease, less radiation, etc., and it is performed in three ways: direct, indirect, and intermediate..
