We have all wished for cavity free teeth. A lot of people use fluoride to help prevent those nasty little holes. Have you heard of a new discovery that this could be available within 2 to 3 years? Yes

Keratin — a protein found in hair, skin and fingernails is extracted from waste products from wool. It is then applied to the teeth and forms a protective crystal-like coating on the teeth similar to natural enamel. Does this sound as amazing to you as it did to me? Yes

This treatment was discovered at King's College in London. They released the following statement: '"Not only is it sustainably sourced from biological waste materials like hair and skin, it also eliminates the need for traditional plastic resins, commonly used in restorative dentistry, which are toxic and less durable. Keratin also looks much more natural than these treatments, as it can more closely match the color of the original tooth.' Would this be something you would be willing to try? Yes
