Dental implant, artwork

Dental implant. Artworks showing the process of replacing a tooth (incisor) with a dental implant. At upper left, front lower teeth and a dental instrument are shown in a case of receding and inflamed gums. This is typical of conditions such as gingivitis and periodontal disease. If not checked, erosion of the teeth and gums leads to loss of the teeth. At upper right is the internal structure of a tooth (molar), including arterial (red) and venous (blue) capillaries, and the tooth layers (enamel, dentine, pulp, cementum). Across bottom, a hole is drilled in the jaw bone, a titanium base implanted, and the artificial tooth screwed into this base

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate process of replacing a tooth with a dental implant. The artwork provides a detailed visual representation of various stages involved in this procedure. At the upper left corner, we observe a case of receding and inflamed gums, which are common symptoms of conditions like gingivitis and periodontal disease. If left untreated, these issues can lead to erosion and eventual loss of teeth. Moving to the upper right section, we delve into the internal structure of a molar tooth. The illustration highlights arterial (red) and venous (blue) capillaries alongside different layers such as enamel, dentine, pulp, and cementum that constitute a tooth's composition. The bottom part captures an essential step in dental implantation: drilling a hole in the jaw bone followed by inserting a titanium base onto which an artificial tooth is securely screwed. This technological advancement has revolutionized dentistry by providing patients with durable replacements for missing teeth. The image is set against a clean white background that accentuates its clinical nature while emphasizing the importance of oral health. Its educational value lies in its ability to convey complex anatomical details related to dental implants through clear-cut diagrams and surgical equipment visuals. Science Photo Library presents this remarkable artwork without any commercial intent or affiliation with specific companies. It serves as an informative resource for medical professionals seeking insights into dental implant procedures or individuals interested in understanding their own oral health better.
