#3Did they mean route as in path to a solution? Or root as the source? Seems odd.

#4Was thinking about oddities of language recently (happens a lot since moving to Germany), specifically how "toothpaste" isn't made from teeth and "tomato paste" isn't something you rub onto a tomato.
So anyway, should we be calling this "hairpaste for teeth", or "toothpaste from hair"?

#5>While fluoride toothpastes are currently used to slow this process, keratin-based treatments were found to stop it completely.
That's really great I hope to use this some day.

#6So, chewing on beetle exoskeletons would repair teeth enamel? Wonder if there is archaeological evidence of humans doing that. Edit: there seems to be plenty of evidence of eating insects but any dental association is probably incidental (pun not intended). Maybe we just haven’t been looking into the enamel for these structures.

#7Funny that the first picture on the website is a bald man, I guess he hasn't tested it himself?

“Toothpaste” is the commonly accepted English word (in most English dialects, as far as I’m aware) for that paste which we use to clean our teeth with a brush. So I expect we’ll call it “toothpaste” regardless of the exact chemical composition.
If keratin is the active ingredient, I would suspect the exact source doesn’t really matter.

Root as in seed [crystal], as in nucleation point is what I would surmise.
