Science in South Korea has taken another unexpected step: local specialists have developed a special plaster that can restore teeth naturally. Experts say that this innovation could replace traditional fillings, painful surgeries, and expensive procedures in the future.
The created patch delivers the drug called Tideglusib directly to the gingival tissues through micro-needles. The drug activates the stem cells of the tooth root, stimulating the regeneration of natural enamel and the growth of new dental tissues.
Scientists say it's enough to apply the bandage to the gums for an average of 20 minutes a day. The tests were conducted on animals, and the results were surprising: the damaged tooth tissues were restored naturally, without any surgical intervention.
The new technology is expected to be effective in humans as well. Experts say that clinical use may be permitted after 2026. Interestingly, the cost of such a procedure can be around 300 dollars per tooth - much cheaper than modern dental implants and complex prosthetic work from some clinics.
Experts say that this technology could completely transform the dental industry, ushering in a new era in preserving natural teeth. It is also expected that in the future, more convenient and frequently used types of plasters will be developed.
In short, the new discovery opens up a great opportunity to make the smile recovery process easier, painless, and much cheaper.
