Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Dental plaque
Tooth plaque. Dental plaque (yellow) on a patients teeth. Plaque is the main cause of tooth decay. It is a sticky coating that consists of saliva, bacteria and particles of food. The bacteria feed on the sugars in food, producing acid as a waste product. This acid can corrode the enamel coating of the teeth, resulting in tooth decay (dental caries). Regular toothbrushing removes plaque and prevents caries

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the detrimental effects of dental plaque on a patient's teeth. The yellowish hue of the plaque is unmistakable, serving as a stark reminder of its role as the primary culprit behind tooth decay. Composed of saliva, bacteria, and food particles, this sticky coating adheres to our teeth with tenacity. The bacteria within dental plaque thrive on sugars present in our diet, converting them into acid waste products. It is this corrosive acid that gradually erodes the protective enamel layer covering our teeth, leading to dental caries or tooth decay. However, there is hope in combating this oral menace. Regular toothbrushing emerges as an effective defense against plaque buildup and prevents the onset of caries. By diligently brushing our teeth, we can remove accumulated plaque and thwart its destructive consequences. This simple yet crucial habit forms an integral part of maintaining optimal oral health. As we gaze at this image capturing the unsightly reality within one's mouth caused by dental plaque, it serves as a poignant reminder to prioritize proper oral hygiene practices. Let us not underestimate the power of regular brushing in safeguarding our pearly whites from decay and preserving our overall well-being.
