#2Finally something to advance dental technology :)
I wonder how much existing practices, who are invested in repair and especially cleaning of teeth feel about possibilities to permanently repair teeth. There are other advances such as the one with laser stimulation.

#3Nice, I hope this hits mainstream in the next 10 years - I'm hoping my teeth will survive without a lot of damage till then :).
The researchers also have filed for a patent https://www.google.com/patents/US20140186273

Lets hope they come up with techniques to help us with severely damaged teeth. Maybe we can replace all the metal and ceramics with real enamel.

There’s also a new stem cell treatment that could make root canals obsolete. http://www.popsci.com/end-root-canals https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12026614

You can regrow tooth enamel on your own right now. It's much, much slower than this and requires a criminally large amount of cod liver oil and butter oil (ie: vitamins A, D, K2 and calcium).
