Dental filling polymerisation, artwork C014 / 2025
Dental filling polymerisation. Artwork of a cross-section of a human tooth, with a filling (white) being set using an ultraviolet light lamp tool. The pink light seen is used to guide the dentist, as the ultraviolet light is not visible. The ultraviolet light provides energy to break chemical bonds, causing the filling to set. The cross-section shows the tooths internal anatomy, including the living tissue of the pulp (red) in the tooths core and its roots (bottom). Within the pulp are venous (blue) and arterial (red) capillaries (small blood vessels), as well as nerves (orange). The filling replaces areas of the tooth lost to dental caries (tooth decay)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Dental filling polymerisation" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate world of dental care. The print showcases a cross-section of a human tooth, with an ultraviolet light lamp tool being used to set a white filling. As the ultraviolet light is invisible to the naked eye, pink guiding lights aid the dentist in this delicate procedure. The detailed cross-section reveals the internal anatomy of the tooth, highlighting its core's living tissue known as pulp. Within this vibrant red pulp lie venous and arterial capillaries that facilitate circulation alongside orange nerves responsible for transmitting vital signals. The purpose of this innovative filling is to replace areas lost due to dental caries or tooth decay. By utilizing ultraviolet light, chemical bonds are broken within the filling material, causing it to solidify and protect against further damage. This artwork not only showcases cutting-edge technology but also emphasizes dentistry's crucial role in repairing and treating oral health issues. It beautifully captures both organic and inorganic elements present within our teeth while underscoring their significance in maintaining overall well-being. Created by Claus Lunau for Science Photo Library, this print serves as a testament to modern advancements in dental care while celebrating the complexity and beauty found within our own mouths.
