Creating Synthetic Tooth Enamel

Jun-08-18 A synthetic tooth enamel could help treat enamel loss and tooth pain.

Developed by a team from Queen Mary University, the synthetic enamel material is created during a “protein-mediated mineralization process,’ which uses a protein to promote the growth of apatite nanocrystals similar to the way enamel develops. The team believes the mineralization process could open the door to acid-resistant bandages able to wrap and protect teeth that have suffered enamel loss.
