Root-canal treatment, dental X-ray
Dental root-canal treatment. Coloured pan-oral X- ray of the mouth of a 17 year old woman showing a number of fillings (green) in teeth of the upper jaw, including root-canal treatment. In four of the upper incisors, the roots of the teeth have been drilled to remove the pulp which is diseased or has died. These teeth have then been filled and sealed. Other teeth reveal more superficial dental fillings. Dental caries (tooth decay) is the most common reason for this type of treatment. Good dental hygiene, such as regular brushing and consuming less sugar, can help to prevent tooth decay

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a dental X-ray of a 17-year-old woman undergoing root-canal treatment. The panoramic image reveals the upper jaw, highlighting several fillings in vibrant green color. Specifically, four of her upper incisors have undergone root-canal treatment due to diseased or deceased pulp. Skilled dentists drilled the roots to remove the affected pulp before filling and sealing these teeth meticulously. In addition to these treated teeth, other areas display more superficial dental fillings, indicating previous instances of tooth decay that were successfully addressed. Dental caries (tooth decay) is cited as the most common cause for this type of treatment, emphasizing the importance of good oral hygiene practices such as regular brushing and reducing sugar consumption. The comprehensive radiograph not only captures various aspects related to dental health but also provides valuable insights into bone structure and overall oral well-being. This false-colored image offers an exceptional visual representation for both medical professionals and individuals seeking knowledge about root canal treatments, dental fillings, and maintaining optimal oral health. Science Photo Library's commitment to delivering high-quality scientific imagery shines through this remarkable photograph print. It serves as a powerful educational tool while showcasing their expertise in capturing intricate details within the field of dentistry and healthcare.
