Polarised LM of a tooth with various fillings
Tooth fillings. Polarised light micrograph (PLM) of a longitudinal section through a tooth with various fillings. The enamel (orange) has been replaced in areas of decay (dental caries) with ceramic fillings (grainy) and a single gold filling (gold, at lower right). The mineralised dentine that forms the bulk of the tooth is red. Fillings are necessary when the hard enamel that protects the crown of the tooth is eroded by acid produced by the bacteria in plaque. Magnification: x15 at 4.5x6.5cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a polarised light micrograph (PLM) of a tooth with various fillings, providing an intriguing glimpse into the world of dentistry. The enamel, depicted in vibrant orange hues, has been replaced by ceramic fillings in areas affected by dental caries or decay. These grainy ceramic fillings stand out against the backdrop of mineralized red dentine that forms the bulk of the tooth. Fillings play a crucial role when acid produced by bacteria in plaque erodes the hard enamel protecting the crown of a tooth. In this image, we witness how modern dentistry utilizes both ceramic and gold materials to restore and preserve oral health. A single gold filling can be observed at the lower right corner, adding an element of elegance to this microscopic landscape. The magnification level allows for intricate details to be captured on this 4.5x6.5cm print from Science Photo Library. This visual representation not only serves as a testament to scientific advancements but also highlights the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene and seeking timely dental care. Without mentioning any commercial use or company affiliation, this photograph invites viewers to appreciate both the artistry and medical significance behind dental procedures while emphasizing their impact on overall well-being.
