To prevent cavities, children and adults recommended to brush the teeth 2 times a day. But now scientists have discovered a new way to prevent cavities, it is estimated this way are able to maintain healthy teeth for life.
Was Jose Cordoba from Yale University and Erich Astudillo from Universidad de Santiago, Chile which claimed to have discovered the chemical molecule called 'Keep 32'. Molecule which named for the number of human teeth were claimed to be able to get rid of all the bacteria that cause cavities in just 60 seconds.
Cordoba and Astudillo itself has been doing research since 2005 to find a molecule and successfully get a provisional patent for the molecule.
Now both were submit proposals to use the molecule tooth hygiene products after doing experiments on humans during 14-18 months. Both believe this product can make a profit 300 million U.S. dollars in the first five years only.
"These molecules not only be inserted into the gum, but also in products such as toothpaste, mouthwash, dental floss, chewing, night gel which be kept in the mouth for at least 60 seconds," said Astudillo which also CEO Top Tech Innovations, a company that holds Keep 32 patents molecules as reported from CBSNews.
Astudillo hopes to offer his inventionto companies that make tooth hygiene products such as Colgate, Proctor or Gamble, as well as candy manufacturers such as Hershey or Cadbury.
Although some say that this molecule remains to be proven in order to be used in a variety of methods without giving a specific health consequences as well as the fluoride, the researchers remain optimistic. Cordoba and Astudillo themselves was preparing to negotiate their invention with the the five leading companies.
