Hurry! I like the “pain-free” part the best.
An end to ‘British Teeth’?
I’ve been hearing whispers of this research for a few years now. If this really works, dentistry will be advanced in an almost unbelievable way.
They have dental scientists in London?
A little late for me.... I’ve already got a mouth full of root canals and crowns.... bummer!
I will miss the sound of the drill, the smell of burning protein and the pain of the novacaine shot... not!
The irony is this in in the UK. My hubby, a Brit, as a young boy had a dentist who was a sadist. Cavity? Yank it. That was always the dentist’s answer. He had terrible teeth when we married and was embarrassed by them. He finally got braces and bridge work here and his smile is incredible.
Ping! This may be of interest to you.
England is still a hot bed of scientific research despite their socialized medicine.
One of the most prestigious journals of medicine, THE LANCET originated in London and still has its editorial offices there.
I wonder if this could be used to repair teeth that have already been drilled and filled.
I had a root canal just over a year ago. While I am happy with the results (I had not realized just how much pain that tooth had caused for so many years until the root canal abolished the pain), it would have been nice to not have to essentially kill the tooth.

It’s not fun on the ‘worker’s end’, either. I used to be a dental assistant (one of my several jobs) years ago.
Not to worry, the pain in the bank account for this new procedure will probably balance it all out.
This is a story you can really sink your teeth into.
I think your dentist is doing things in the wrong order.

This means the science is over a year old. Where’s the widespread use?
