A team of scientists has discovered a way to reshape tooth enamel, raising the level of dental care to a whole new level.
Dental enamel cannot usually be reconstituted after it is broken or worn out, so doctors are now restoring caries or fractures with artificial fillings. Tooth enamel in mice within 48 hours, according to the prospectus «Future Observatory» in Dubai.
The new substance will undergo several tests before being used in humans. The new material is a promising sign of the ability of regenerative dentistry to treat future cavities.
The observatory added that this research is not the first attempt to rebuild tooth enamel, as scientists have previously developed some vaccines, and used stem cells that help the teeth of mice to rebuild themselves.
The new substance was tested on mice and helped, according to the Independent's report, to reconstitute enamel in previously removed human teeth.
