blike Posted November 24, 2002 Share Posted November 24, 2002 There's a short article in the latest issue of scientific american about a research team that removed molars from six-month old pigs and disolved them. Then they placed in scaffolding and placed into rats' abdomens to grow. In third weeks, two-millimeter molar crowns emerged complete with pulp chambers, root tips, layers of dentin and enamel. Pretty cool if you ask me. Maybe one day this will replace dentures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

entimp Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 Sad if you ask me... Stop eating all that rubbish and look after your teeth. Then mult-inationals and bio-tech comapnies will not be able to take over the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMI Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 Why can't we find a way where we don't have to brush our teeth! Maybe nano-bots that constantly roam each tooth removing plague, etc. All this science and we still need to care for our own teeth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dudde Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 those are not your teeth, they are animated happy faces' teeth. but I'm sure you have a nice pearly smile yourself;) nanobots in your mouth would probably lead people to believe that they were being spied upon by the government, and therefore would break out in revolts against the government it would also lead the government to believe it would be an easier way to spy on people;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavajoEverclear Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 Yes IMI i vote for nanobots! How can i serve the campaign? Whether you believe it or not, your ARE being spied on by the government Dudde. I have faith there are pirates out there with a cure to the bondage, and i will join them. And we will not deny the evil government personal any nanobots, until they surrender to us! Or then would the pirates become the opressive square government? hmmmmmmmmmm, perplexing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
