  From people in materials research, a new and innovative way to prevent tooth decay, polishing teeth enamel with nano-particles. These microscopic particles are used for polishing leaving teeth so slick bacteria has no way of hanging on. Well that’s the theory for you still have to watch for the gum line and the spaces between teeth that can play host to plaque and subsequently acid producing bacteria. The technology is easy to use for you simply swap the polishing compound for the other abrasive the dentist regularly uses but to reach most of the teeth would be the problem for as we know it, some parts of the tooth are under the gums which is where the bacteria would take hold out of sight and well hidden from the polishing wheel.
