Background: An orthopantomogram (OPG) is a common radiograph used to identify the hard tissues of the oral cavity and surrounding skeletal structures. It is an extra-oral radiograph that approximates the focal trough of the mandible.

An OPG is a panoramic or wide view x-ray of the lower face, which displays all the teeth of the upper and lower jaw on a single film. It demonstrates the number, position and growth of all the teeth including those that have not yet surfaced or erupted. It is different from the small close up x-rays dentists take of individual teeth.

Ghost images occur when an object or anatomic structure that is outside the focal plane, and is dense enough to attenuate the x-ray beam and project an image. The orthopantomogram (OPG) is a commonly requested examination, referred by both medical practitioners and dentists.
