NewOrthomagazinelaunched By DTI LONDON, UK: With the BioMin calcium fluoro-phosphosilicate, dental researchers from Queen Mary University of London have developed a material that has the potential to significantly reduce dental decay and solve tooth sen- sitivity when used as an ingredient in common oral hygiene brands. On Wednesday, the first commer- cial product was presented to the public in the form of a reminer- alising toothpaste during a press launch at the Royal London Hos- pital Dental Institute. The BioMinF will only be avail- able to dental professionals in the UK through wholesalers for the time being, BioMin Technologies CEORichardWhatleysaid.Alaunch in high-street stores, however, is anticipated for the end of this year. For users who do not want to brush with a fluoride toothpaste, a fluoride-free version is currently in development. Whatley further added that his company is in talks aboutlicensingtheproductforuse in other dental products, including polishing pastes, varnishes and restorative dental materials. “Ouraim is for the BioMinbrand to become synonymous with the treatment of tooth sensitivity in the eyes of both the dental pro- fessional and the general public,” he said. In 2013, the promising inven- tion received the Armourers and Brasiers’ Venture Prize, an annual award given to breakthrough in- novations in materials science fromtheUK.Abioactiveglass,ithas been developed to adhere to tooth structure through a special poly- mer, from where it slowly dis- solves ions that form fluorapatite, amineralalsofoundinsharkteeth, over an 8–12-hour period to make teeth more resistant to acids from food. According to BioMin founder and Queen Mary Director of Re- search Prof. Robert Hill, the pro- cess has been proven to be more effective than the use of fluorides inconventionaltoothpastesorpro- fessional prophylaxis materials, which are washed away and lose their effect more quickly. In addition, the fluorapatite formed from brushing with BioMinF toothpaste has shown to effectively reduce dentine hyper- sensitivity by sealing open denti- nal tubules in in vitro studies at Queen Mary. The team now intends to con- duct long-term studies on the ef- fectsofthematerialoverthecourse of the next two years.
