"Dental enamel has a unique structure, which gives enamel its remarkable properties that protect our teeth throughout life against physical, chemical, and thermal insults," said lead author Dr. Abshar Hasan

This man doesn't just disapprove of people mistreating their teeth, he is personally insulted by it. A true dentist.

I could never ever work in that field, it gives me the ick. So I appreciate people who can.

Also enamel is the hardest substance in your body; AFAIK chemically it is indeed interesting and hard (ha) to emulate with other bio-safe materials.

It's almost as bad being married to someone that works in that field.

My wife is a dental hygienist. Some of the horrific shit she sends me would turn your stomach. And then the experiences she's had working on teeth... Just so so gross. 🤮🤮
