The classic process of removing decay, which requires drilling, drugs, composite resin or amalgam, is supposed to be replaced by the drug EAER (Electrically Accelerated and Enhanced Remineralisation), thus sending dental drills and needles to the museum.
The revolutionary drug will not only put out the fire, but accelerate it naturally movement of calcium and phosphate minerals in erupted teeth. Of course, it will not be possible to completely avoid a visit to the dentist, because someone has to take professional care of a damaged tooth, but the fear that so often discourages us from regular checkups will no longer take us as far as Sapramiške.

It will be in the first painless prepared the tooth enamel (enamel) in the first, and in this part of the tooth in the second weak electric current sent a mineral battalion.
