Why X-Ray Mandible AP/LAT is Important
-
Fracture Detection: Accurately detects fractures or dislocations in the lower jaw following trauma or accidents.
-
Dental and Orthodontic Assessment: Helps dentists evaluate alignment issues, impacted teeth, or bone density before orthodontic procedures.
-
TMJ Evaluation: Identifies degenerative joint conditions or abnormalities in the temporomandibular joints.
-
Infection or Cyst Detection: Reveals abscesses, cysts, or pathological bone changes that might not be visible through external examination.
-
Surgical Follow-up: Monitors post-surgical healing or bone graft integration after reconstructive jaw surgery.
The X-Ray Mandible AP/LAT Karad service at Diagnopein plays a crucial role for oral surgeons, ENT specialists, and dental professionals who rely on clear, high-quality diagnostic images.

How X-Ray Mandible AP/LAT is Done
The X-Ray Mandible AP/LAT test follows a simple, step-by-step process:
-
Preparation: The patient is asked to remove any metal objects such as jewelry, dentures, or eyeglasses that may interfere with the scan.
-
Positioning: For the AP (front) view, the patient faces forward with the chin slightly raised; for the lateral (side) view, the head turns sideways for complete jaw coverage.
-
Imaging: The technician adjusts exposure levels, and the digital X-ray captures high-quality images of the mandible within seconds.
-
Completion: Images are reviewed by the radiologist to ensure diagnostic accuracy. Patients receive reports within a few hours at Diagnopein Karad.
This procedure requires no fasting or injection and is perfectly safe for adults and children when clinically indicated.
