Scientists have discovered a painless way to fight tooth decay that reverses the damage and still regenerates teeth, leaving them as new. The apparent miracle was accomplished by the team of Dr. Jennifer Kirkham, from the University of Leeds, UK, and consists of a new technique for filling in the tooth.
Dental caries begins when the acid produced by bacteria in the plaque dissolves the mineral in teeth, causing microscopic holes or pores. The process progresses as these micropores increase in number and size. Eventually the damaged tooth needs to be drilled and filled to prevent toothache, or, in more severe cases, needs to be extracted.
Just thinking about the treatment, many people turn away from their dentists, or are not needed. This delays the onset of treatment and when the pain is stronger, the damage is already extensive. It's a vicious cycle, but it can be broken, according to researchers, who have developed a revolutionary new way to treat the early signs of tooth decay.
The solution is in a peptide-based fluid that is literally painted on the tooth surface, it is not necessary to use little engine. The technology with peptides based on knowledge of how the tooth is formed, which allows stimulate the regeneration of the defect that begins to emerge.
This may sound too good to be true, but we are essentially helping acid-damaged teeth to regenerate themselves. It is a totally natural process of repair and non-surgical, and also totally free of pain, Dr. Kirkham guarantees.
The fluid contains a magic known as P 11-4 peptide which, under certain conditions, agglomerates in the form of fibers. In practice, this means that when applied on the tooth, the fluid penetrates into the micropores caused by etching and then spontaneously forms a gel. This gel acts as a support which attracts calcium and regenerates the tooth minerals from within, providing a natural repair and painlessly.
