You could soon get glass slippers…for your teeth. And they’re every bit as magical as they sound. Researchers from Queen Mary University, London, have developed a glass composite dental filling that can repair tooth decay, prolong the life of existing fillings and reduce the need for mercury-based dental amalgam. The new bioactive material releases fluoride, calcium and phosphate to re-mineralise decayed teeth and creates an alkaline environment that fills up gaps with tooth minerals, discouraging bacteria. It’s no fairy godmother’s wand, but it’s pretty close!
