Photographic Print : Plaque-forming bacteria, SEM
Photo Prints from Fine Art Storehouse
Plaque-forming bacteria, SEM
Plaque-forming bacteria, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). Plaque consists of a film of bacteria embedded in a glycoprotein matrix. The matrix is formed from bacterial secretions and saliva. Plaque is the main cause of tooth decay. The bacteria feed on sugars in food, producing acid as a waste product. This acid corrodes the teeths enamel coating, resulting in dental caries. A build-up of dental plaque can also lead to inflamed and infected gums. Severe gum disease can lead to teeth falling out. Magnification: x2000 when printed at 10 centimetres across

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of plaque-forming bacteria, revealing their role in dental health. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we witness a close-up view of plaque, which consists of a delicate film of bacteria embedded within a glycoprotein matrix. This matrix is formed by bacterial secretions and saliva. Plaque, unfortunately, stands as the primary culprit behind tooth decay. These bacteria thrive on sugars present in our food and release acid as a waste product. Over time, this corrosive acid erodes the protective enamel coating of our teeth, leading to dental caries or cavities. The consequences don't stop there; an accumulation of dental plaque can also result in inflamed and infected gums. If left untreated, severe gum disease may ensue, ultimately causing teeth to loosen and fall out. With its magnification at x2000 when printed at 10 centimetres across, this image captured by STEVE GSCHMEISSNER/SCIENCE PHOTO offers us an extraordinary glimpse into the microscopic world that profoundly impacts our oral health. It serves as a reminder to maintain proper oral hygiene practices such as regular brushing and flossing to prevent these plaque-forming bacteria from wreaking havoc on our smiles.
