Hence, we keep updating our dental aids and dental equipments to the ever changing technology.  Presently Smiline Dental Hospital houses a world class and latest dental aids and equipments.  All keeping in mind of you and for you…

1. Diagnosis, Treatment Plan using Radio Video Graphy, Orthopantomography and etc.

RVG– Radio Video Graphy for diagnosis Intra-Oral

Video Graphy also know as RVG helps dentists to detect cavities. Higher the resolution higher the clarity and accuracy. Accuracy is crucial to diagnose in perfection. Higher Resolutions RVG helps make complex diagnoses quickly and confidently, which results in utmost patient comfort. Hence,Smiline Hospital is equipped with Radiography System that has the highest resolution RVG digital imaging sensor. RVG allows to easily process, archive and retrieve patients’ images. 

Also RVG helps dentists to detect cavities more than that of traditional methods.

Intra Oral Periapical Radiography – IOPA

Intra Oral X-Rays are small X-Ray films specially designed for taking X-Rays of teeth. The film is kept inside the mouth (intra orally) and exposed for 3 -4 seconds. The various types of Intra Oral X-Rays show different aspects of the teeth. Intra oral X-Rays are the most common radiographs to find out the caries, to study the health of the bony area surrounding the root, see the status of the developing teeth and helps to monitor good tooth health.

Bite-wing X-rays highlight the crowns of the back teeth. Dentists take one bite-wing X-ray on each side of the mouth. Each X-ray shows the upper and lower molars (back teeth).

These X-rays help dentist find decay between back teeth.

Occlusal X-rays are larger and highlight tooth development and placement. On each radiograph, nearly the full arch of teeth in either the upper or lower jaw is shown.

Orthopantomogram – OPG (FULL MOUTH X-RAY)

AN OPG UNIT

An Orthopantomogram (OPG), also known as  "panoromagram", is a panoramic scanning dental X-rayof the upper and lower jaws. show the entire mouth — all teeth on both upper and lower jaws — on a single X-ray. Orthopantomograms are used for treatment planning by Orthodontics, Periodontics and Oral Surgical procedures.

Orthopantomograph

This x-ray scan illustrates the maxilla and mandible, all the teeth  including the

"wisdom teeth ,"the frontal, nasal and maxillary sinus air spaces and the Temporomandibular Joint complex or "TMJ".

Cephalogram

Cephalogram  is a Cephalometric Radiograph. On tracings of these films, anatomic points, planes, and angles are drawn that assist in the evaluation of the patient's facial growth and development.

Cephalogram is essential for orthodontic and orthognathic treatments. Cephalometric analysis depends on cephalometric radiography to study relationships between bony and soft tissue landmarks and can be used to diagnose facial growth abnormalities prior to treatment, in the middle of treatment to evaluate progress or at the end of treatment to ascertain the goals of treatment have been met.

Before/After Photographs

Using a digital camera photographs of the orthodontic patients are taken pre and post orthodontic treatments.  Photographs are used to compare the pre and post treatment faces, as it changes the entire look.

Models

Upper and lower impressions are taken for the patients and study models are prepared using plaster mainly in orthodontics.

This is to assess the line of treatment, to compare the progress during the course of treatment and after the completion of the treatment.
