Fine Art Print : Overbite, X-ray
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Overbite, X-ray
Overbite. Coloured X-ray (side view) of the head of a 32 year old woman showing overbite of the upper jaw (yellow) and its teeth. The protruding teeth of the upper jaw are causing malocclusion where the dental bite is adversely affected. This extreme case of malocclusion is called retro- gnathism: the lower jaw is so far back that it affects even the molar bite; with the upper incisors (front teeth) pushed outwards. Soft tissues outline the profile of the face, while the skull is seen with vertebral bones of the neck. Overbite usually develops in childhood and is often inherited, although thumb-sucking may be a cause

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases an extreme case of malocclusion known as retrognathism, featuring the side view of a 32-year-old woman's head. The image vividly displays the overbite condition, with the upper jaw and its teeth protruding forward (highlighted in yellow). This misalignment causes malocclusion, adversely affecting her dental bite. The lower jaw is positioned so far back that it even impacts the molar bite while pushing outwards on the front teeth or incisors. Soft tissues beautifully outline her facial profile, while the skull and cervical vertebrae bones are visible in this radiographic image. Overbite typically develops during childhood and can be inherited; however, thumb-sucking may also contribute to its development. This thought-provoking photograph serves as a powerful visual representation of this disorder within dentistry and medicine. It is important to note that this print by Science Photo Library should not be used for commercial purposes but rather appreciated for its educational value in health care settings. Its false-colored depiction effectively highlights the severity of overbite and retrognathism, providing valuable insights into these conditions for medical professionals and researchers alike.
