Loss of teeth, X-ray
Loss of teeth. Coloured pan-oral X-ray of the mouth of an elderly man showing his few remaining teeth. Some of the teeth (for instance at centre right) have fillings (black) in them. Only one tooth remains in this mans upper jaw. Teeth can be lost due to infections of the gums (gingivitis) or the teeth themselves (caries). Good dental hygiene, such as regular brushing, can help to prevent both disorders

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the unfortunate reality of tooth loss in an elderly man. The coloured pan-oral X-ray reveals the few remaining teeth in his mouth, with some displaying noticeable fillings, depicted as black shadows. Strikingly, only one solitary tooth remains in his upper jaw, highlighting the extent of his dental condition. Teeth can be lost due to various factors such as gum infections (gingivitis) or decay (caries), both of which can severely impact oral health. However, this thought-provoking image also emphasizes that practicing good dental hygiene, including regular brushing and proper care, can help prevent these disorders. The male subject's age is evident from the worn appearance of his jaw bone and overall oral structure. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of maintaining oral health throughout life and seeking appropriate dental care. As we observe this image closely, it becomes apparent that dentistry plays a crucial role in addressing tooth loss and related issues. The absence of teeth not only affects one's ability to chew but also impacts self-esteem and overall well-being. In conclusion, this medical photograph by Science Photo Library sheds light on a common yet often overlooked aspect of aging – dental health deterioration. It urges us to prioritize good oral hygiene practices while emphasizing the significance of professional dental care for preventing tooth loss and maintaining overall well-being at any age.
