A protein-based biomimetic gel that can regenerate damaged tooth enamel, strengthen healthy enamel, and prevent the risk of cavities.
developed.
Features
Mimics the function of natural proteins to induce enamel formation, without fluoride
When applied to the tooth surface, it forms a thin and sturdy layer, filling minute gaps and cracks.
Absorbs calcium and phosphate ions in saliva and induces new mineral growth through ‘epitaxial mineralization’
Can also be applied to dentin, relieving hypersensitivity and strengthening prosthesis adhesion
effect
Restores structure and mechanical strength similar to natural tooth enamel
Effectiveness confirmed in actual oral environments such as brushing, chewing, and acidic foods
commercialization
We are collaborating with a bio company,
Next year’s product launch goal
significance
Existing fluoride treatment or remineralization only alleviated symptoms, but this technology heals the enamel itself.

Wow. Indeed, the day when the damaged part of the tooth can be regenerated!!!!!!
