Coloured SEM of crystals of toothpaste abrasive
Toothpaste abrasive. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of abrasive crystals in toothpaste. The abrasive is usually an insoluble salt such as dicalcium phosphate. Although brushing the teeth without toothpaste, powder or gel removes food debris and some dental plaque, a slightly abrasive substance is needed to remove the remaining plaque and the pellicle (a thin film formed from saliva).

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of toothpaste abrasive crystals under a coloured scanning electron microscope (SEM). The crystals, typically composed of insoluble salts like dicalcium phosphate, play a crucial role in maintaining oral hygiene. While brushing alone can eliminate food debris and some dental plaque, these slightly abrasive substances are essential for effectively removing remaining plaque and the pellicle—a thin film formed from saliva. The image's high magnification reveals the mesmerizing details of these tiny crystals. At 5x7cm size, they appear enchantingly delicate yet powerful in their ability to enhance our daily dental routine. Zooming further at 8x6ins magnification brings forth an even more profound appreciation for their structure and function. Macleans toothpaste is not mentioned as this photograph focuses solely on the scientific aspect rather than any commercial use or endorsement. Instead, it invites viewers to marvel at the wonders found within everyday objects we often take for granted. This crystal-clear snapshot serves as a reminder that personal oral hygiene goes beyond surface-level cleaning—it delves into microscopic realms where unseen battles against plaque occur. It highlights how science plays an integral role in enhancing our understanding of dental care while simultaneously providing us with visually stunning glimpses into the hidden world around us.
