Quality orthodontic therapy begins with an accurate diagnosis. At the Ortho Rijeka clinic, complete digital X-ray diagnostics are available in one place, enabling a precise assessment of the condition of the teeth, jaws, and bite before making any therapeutic decision.
Detailed diagnostics are a prerequisite for safe, professional, and individualized treatment planning, without guesswork or unnecessary procedures.
A clear picture of the condition before every decision
X-ray diagnostics are intended for children, adolescents, and adult patients in whom it is necessary to assess the health and position of the teeth, jaw development, and interjaw relationships for the planning of orthodontic or dental therapy.
It is especially important before starting orthodontic therapy, during monitoring of growth and development in children, and in preparation for implant-prosthetic, surgical, and other dental procedures. Diagnostics enable safe planning and predictable results.
ORTHOPANTOMOGRAM (OPG)
A panoramic image that shows all teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures, enabling an overview of the overall condition of the oral cavity.
CEPHALOMETRIC X-RAY
A lateral head image used to analyze growth and development, interjaw relationships, and to plan orthodontic therapy, especially in children and adolescents.
INTRAORAL X-RAYS
Detailed images of individual teeth and surrounding structures that enable precise assessment of the condition of the teeth and supporting tissues.
DETAILED DIAGNOSTICS FOR SAFE THERAPY AND PREDICTABLE RESULTS
Each diagnostic image is taken with a clearly defined reason and purpose. Before imaging, we assess what is truly necessary in order to avoid unnecessary radiation exposure and ensure maximum patient safety.
The results of diagnostic imaging are thoroughly analyzed and explained to the patient, because we believe that understanding one’s own condition brings confidence and trust in the treatment plan. Diagnostics at the Ortho Rijeka clinic are not a standalone service, but the foundation for high-quality, safe, and long-term successful therapy.
