Fig. 117. This excellent photograph of a split bicuspid with mesial and distal decays is remark-
ably similar to the last, but in many ways a more perfect picture than Figure 114. In the decay on the
left, the enamel rods are broken down and are lying in the cavity in the enamel in a tangled
In the the right, the enamel rods are still in perfect position and no microorganisms have
been adn itted to the dentin. The dark portion of the dentin accurately exhibits actual decay of the
dentin ii both decays. The hyaline areas are both very well shown. The forked projection of the
flamelike tongue on the left, formed by the border of cloud, is one of the singularly interesting
features.
