Tiny robots to treat sensitive teeth

Teeth 1

People with sensitive teeth could soon have them cured — with microscopic robots.
The tiny magnetic devices penetrate deep into the tiny tunnels in teeth that lead to nerve endings known as dentinal tubules.
The robots then form durable seals for worn enamel, offering lasting relief from sensitivity in just one application.
Dental hypersensitivity affects nearly one in four people worldwide.
It occurs when the tubules in the dentine, the layer beneath the enamel. become exposed due to erosion or gum recession.
These tiny tubules lead directly to nerve endings, which is why even a sip of cold water can cause a sudden, stabbing pain.
Currently people with sensitive teeth can only get temporary relief using specialist desensitising toothpastes, toothpastes daily.
The new solution has come from researchers at the Indian Institute of Science in collaboration with a tech startup called Theranautilus.
They have created the robots which are called CalBots which are about the size of a virus at four hundred billionths of a metre.
The devices are loaded with a proprietary calcium silicate-based ceramic formula.
They are guided by an external magnetic field deep into the exposed tubules.
Once there, the bots self-assemble into stable, cement-like plugs that block the tubules and recreate a durable seal that mimics the natural environment of the tooth.

Conch shell blowing to help beat sleep apnoea
Ferrari Press Agency
Conch shell 1
Ref 17062

See Ferrari text
Picture MUST credit: Krishna K Sharma / ERJ Open Research
The risk from a potentially fatal sleep condition could be significantly reduced by blowing through into a conch shell on a regular basis.
People who practised blowing through the shell regularly for six months experienced a reduction in the symptoms of obstructive sleep apnoea.
Apnoea is a common sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops during the night due to a blocked airway.
It leads to loud snoring, restless sleep and daytime sleepiness.
It can also increase the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke.
Blowing the conch shell , known as shankh blowing, has been part of Indian culture for thousands of years.
The new research showed that people with moderate apnoea who practised this slept better, felt more alert during the day and had fewer breathing interruptions at night.
The researchers say conch blowing is a simple, low-cost intervention that could help reduce symptoms without the need for medication or machines.
The study was led by Dr Krishna K Sharma from the Eternal Heart Care Centre and Research Institute in Jaipur, India.
