View of a hand holding various acrylic false teeth
False teeth. View of a hand holding various polished acrylic false teeth. The teeth were created in a handcrafted stainless steel mould. False teeth are fixed onto dental implants screwed into the jaw to replace teeth that have been knocked out or removed. They are also used to form dental bridges, where false teeth are attached to natural teeth on either side of a gap left by missing teeth. Teeth of various shapes, sizes and tones are manufactured to make sure they look as natural as possible in each individuals mouth. Photographed at Ivoclar in Liechtenstein

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate craftsmanship behind creating acrylic false teeth. In the image, a hand delicately holds an assortment of polished false teeth, each one meticulously crafted using a handcrafted stainless steel mold. These false teeth serve as replacements for those that have been lost or removed due to various reasons. Dental implants play a crucial role in this process, as they are securely screwed into the jawbone to provide a stable foundation for attaching the false teeth. Additionally, these artificial teeth can also be used to form dental bridges by connecting them to natural teeth on either side of a gap caused by missing teeth. To ensure that these prosthetic teeth blend seamlessly with each individual's natural smile, they come in various shapes, sizes, and tones. This attention to detail guarantees that they appear as lifelike as possible when placed inside someone's mouth. The photograph was taken at Ivoclar in Liechtenstein and offers us a glimpse into the fascinating world of dental technology and oral healthcare. It highlights both the artistry involved in creating false teeth and their vital role in restoring smiles and improving overall oral health.
