Smile please for your dental x-rays
Dental patients can now receive comprehensive scans at Nhill Hospital, with a new state-of-the-art dental x-ray machine installed.
The machine, known as a Orthopantomogram or OPG, can provide multiple-angled panoramic x-ray images of the lower and upper jaw.
“It’s a key piece of equipment used by our dental surgeon, Sean Hogan, so investing in the latest technology and machine was imperative,” West Wimmera Health Service CEO Ritchie Dodds said.
“It means people in our communities can access this service more locally rather than having to travel significant distances otherwise.
“We’re proud to be able to continue to offer high quality services such as this to the people we serve.”
