Kamusta, mga kababayan! Sa Pilipinas, marami sa atin ang pamilyar sa broccoli bilang isang gulay na madalas makita sa salad bar o sa mga masasarap na ulam sa mga kainan. Pero ano ba talaga ang alam natin tungkol dito? Marami ang nag-iisip na ito ay isang "pang-mayaman" o "pampapayat" lang na gulay, kaya madalas itong nasa dulo ng ating grocery list.
The image strongly suggests a case of Severe Tooth Decay and Possible Pulp Exposure. The pain shown in the right panel indicates a severe toothache, which often means the decay has progressed to the innermost part of the tooth (the pulp), causing irreversible pulpitis or a dental abscess. This requires urgent professional attention.
Do not attempt to self-treat this condition. Use the provided directory link to find a nearby clinic immediately.
Image Observations: The picture shows the front teeth with small, dark, punctate (dot-like) spots or specks, primarily located close to the gum line (gingival margin). The spots are circled in red for emphasis. The surrounding gum tissue (gingiva) appears generally pink and healthy in the visible area.
Client Statement: "Had it some days now. Can't remove with brush."
Case Type: Advanced Dental Caries and Calculus Accumulation
Upon examination, the posterior molars exhibit:
Extensive caries (tooth decay) on both left and right sides.
Possible pulp involvement — dark discoloration and cavity penetration indicate the decay may have reached the pulp chamber.
For decades, the central, unchangeable truth in dentistry has been this: tooth enamel, once lost, is gone forever. We’ve built our entire preventive care model around this fact—using fluoride, sealants, and patient education to slow the erosion, because we could never reverse it.
Until now.
