American Dental Association has created a new "smart" dental fillings

American Dental Association has created a new "smart" dental fillings, teeth can prevent further damage, but also to reduce damage to teeth and teeth strong so that it no longer impaired. This filler is calcium carbonate cement, currently used to repair broken teeth and periodontal disease and cancer of the bone caused by wear and tear. Calcium is an important component of dental material. The study proved that calcium carbonate cement can also be used to fill and the surrounding tissue to prevent further damage to adjacent teeth.

Dental cavities due to the role of the mineral, that is, damage to the tooth enamel. With calcium carbonate dental cement to prevent further injury is no longer based on the concept of the role of minerals, which means to reverse the development of dental cavities.

Scientists are still studying other products to restore dental cavities calcium carbonate mineral, or at least slow down the development of cavities. They are experimenting with resin mixture of calcium carbonate can then repair damage gums in order to avoid root canal therapy. At the same time also be able to resume research and treatment of early damage to teeth mouthwash, toothpaste and chewing gum. The study found that chewing gum containing calcium carbonate to increase the formation of plaque fluid in the enamel mineral content, so there are going to reduce the possible role of the mineral.

At present, mouthwash or water to add fluoride to promote fossil teeth of another. Scientists further study the possibility of calcium carbonate to increase the effectiveness of fluoride. They create a kind of sugar-containing cough calcium carbonate tablet, with the import entry into force of melt in a few hours. In addition to create a device on the release of fluoride and dental cavities in the middle of the site so that they are leaching high levels of fluoride through the local short-term so early in the process of re-caries minerals, often without the need to give fluoride .

Their idea of the ultimate filler in a partial release of the material, if necessary, as some food so that the acid levels, reduce the acid levels in order to control dental disease.
