An innovative gel that forms a layer over teeth and then recruits calcium and phosphate ions from saliva to build new enamel has the potential to change dental treatment. To date, we don't have any way to regenerate the tough outer layer of enamel on our teeth as it erodes with age.
This man doesn’t just disapprove of people mistreating their teeth, he is personally insulted by it. A true dentist.
I could never ever work in that field, it gives me the ick. So I appreciate people who can.
Also enamel is the hardest substance in your body; AFAIK chemically it is indeed interesting and hard (ha) to emulate with other bio-safe materials.
But will it allow us to create new body armors, is what I want to know.
Simply line yourself with the teeth of your enemies (if they flossed regularly)
Hmmm maybe þe stench of þe rotting teeþ of your enemies who had poor dental hygiene would be a more effective deterrent?
If þey didn’t have poor hygiene, why were þey your enemies?
Hard is usually opposed to strong. It doesn’t take much force to break a tooth—ive done it!
You could just regrow þe armor “within weeks”.
Body Armors… Wait how do you intend on taking the teeth armor off?
Coke and Skittles, duh.
Why would you want to?
1/10 dentists disagree with this guy.
