A teleradiograph is a special type of X-ray used mainly in dental diagnostics, specifically for orthodontic treatment. This technique allows a comprehensive image of the facial and cranial structures to be obtained with high accuracy, especially for examining the relationships of the jawbones, teeth and other facial bones.
Teleradiography is an excellent tool for diagnostics because it helps professionals to see facial and cranial structures in detail, so they can make a more accurate diagnosis and a more effective treatment plan. It can be used to identify developmental anomalies, and dental problems and to monitor pre- and post-operative conditions.
Teleradiographs are usually needed when dentists need a detailed picture of the bone structure of the face and skull. Common applications include orthodontic treatment planning, preparation for complex dental procedures and maxillofacial surgery. It is also used in cases of accidental injuries or congenital malformations.
During a teleradiography examination, the patient stands or sits in a positioning device while the X-ray machine moves around the head to take images from the desired angles. The process is quick, painless and only takes a few minutes. The resulting images are recorded in digital format and can then be assessed by your doctor.
Teleradiography is not performed if the patient is pregnant, as the X-rays can damage the developing foetus. In addition, if the patient is unable to keep their head sufficiently stable during the examination or if they are in severe pain that makes it difficult to position themselves properly, the examination should be avoided. Alternative diagnostic methods should be used for patients sensitive to X-rays.
The price of a teleradiograph at Trendo Dental is 12 000 HUF.

The frequency of teleradiographs depends on the needs identified by the doctor. They are usually only taken for diagnostic purposes or to set up a treatment plan.
No special preparation is usually necessary, but it is a good idea to remove any metal objects, such as jewellery, that might interfere with the image quality.
There is no age limit, it can be used for anyone who can stay calm during the recording. It is often used in children to investigate developmental anomalies.
The most important safety measures include radiation protection, such as the use of a lead jacket and minimum radiation doses.
Teleradiography provides a uniquely detailed image of the bone structure of the face and skull, providing essential information for orthodontics and other complex medical fields.
Digital teleradiography means less radiation for patients, faster results and easier storage and sharing of data between healthcare professionals.
Yes, a teleradiograph can be taken with braces. However, it is important to know that metallic structures can sometimes interfere with the clarity of the images, but with modern digital technologies, professionals can minimise these interferences and give an accurate diagnosis.
If the teleradiograph does not work properly the first time, for example because of patient movement or other technical problems, the scan can be repeated. In such cases, the teleradiographer will take special care to ensure that the patient is properly positioned and that the environment is free of any distractions so that a quality image can be taken on the second attempt.
