Digital X-Ray of Maxilla, Left Lateral oblique view Price in Bangladesh

What is Digital X-Ray of Maxilla, Left Lateral oblique view?

A Digital X-Ray of the maxilla in the left lateral oblique view is used to examine the upper jawbone (maxilla) from a side angle. This view provides detailed images of the bone structure, teeth, and surrounding tissues on the left side of the maxilla.

It is particularly helpful in detecting fractures, infections, bone abnormalities, or issues related to the upper teeth and the maxillary sinus. During the procedure, the patient is positioned to ensure clear imaging of the left side.

Radiation exposure is minimal, and the results are interpreted by a radiologist to identify any abnormalities or conditions affecting the maxilla.

What to expect & how to prepare

An X-ray takes a picture of bones or chest structures in a few seconds. A radiographer positions you, asks you to hold still and briefly hold your breath for chest views. Nothing is injected.

• Eat and drink normally: a plain X-ray needs no diet restriction before your appointment.
• Metal: remove jewellery, coins, belts and clothing with zips or hooks over the area, or change into a gown as advised.
• Positioning: you may be asked to stand, sit or lie in a specific position — for weight-bearing views you will stand on the affected limb.
• Bring earlier films: previous X-rays of the same area help with comparison.

A plain X-ray uses a small dose of ionising radiation. Tell the radiographer before the exposure if you are pregnant or think you might be.

Taken by a radiographer and reported by a radiologist; bring the doctor's advice that requested it.
