Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / March 2005Tiny tooth?
OK, I don't see a dentist as often as I ought to, which is why I'm asking this question here rather than asking my dentist. Anyway... years ago, while I was having my teeth cleaned, my dentist stopped and had a look at my x-rays. What he thought had been a stubborn bit of plaque, turned out to be a tiny little eye tooth! My question is, how small is the smallest tooth you've ever seen? OK, another question, is this common or should I be contacting Guinness? Here's a link to a picture, http://img115.exs.cx/img115/6194/tooth0rx.jpg Thanks for reading! share >What he thought had been a stubborn >bit of plaque, turned out to be a tiny little eye tooth! >My question is, how small is the smallest tooth you've ever seen? OK, >another question, is this common or should I be contacting Guinness? >Here's a link to a picture, http:// It is very cute. It ranks up there with some of the smallest malformations that I have personally encountered in my practice. Too common to contact The Guinness Book of World Records... however, a pint of Guinness Stout wouldn't be out of bounds. Nice photo-micrograph. -- W_B wubbabubbazG@RBAGEyahoo.com Take out the G'RBAGE Thanks for the prompt reply, it just figures that my best "malformation" is a common one! I feel like a traitor about the Guinness, would a glass of Merlot do?

If you don't mind me asking, what did you use to photograph this tooth?. It is one of the best patient submissions I've seen yet. Thanks SP  SignatureFinally: take out the TRASHH Thanks Steve, I don't mind at all. I used my Minolta A1, not only is it a great digital camera, it can take very good macro images too. > I would say yes.... > > If you don't mind me asking, what did you use to photograph this tooth?. > It is one of the best patient submissions I've seen yet. > Thanks > SP > Thanks Steve, I don't mind at all. > > I used my Minolta A1, not only is it a great digital camera, it can take > very good macro images too. Not at all.... I'll remember that for when we need a smaller camera to take on vacations.... Shlepping my big old Fuji 6900Z is getting dangerous for its health Cheers SP SignatureFinally: take out the TRASHH >Thanks for the prompt reply, it just figures that my best "malformation" >is a common one! > >I feel like a traitor about the Guinness, would a glass of Merlot do? > >Cheers Sure, why not. -- W_B Take out the G'RBAGE wubbabubbazG@RBAGEyahoo.com |
