Gel to repair worn tooth enamel
Ferrari Press Agency
Tooth enamel 1
Ref 17280
05/11/2025
See Ferrari text

A gel that uses saliva to repair and regenerate tooth enamel has been developed, opening new possibilities for dental treatment.
The bio-inspired material has the potential to regenerate eroded enamel, strengthen healthy enamel, and prevent future decay and could be on the market by 2026.
Enamel does not naturally regenerate; once you lose it is gone forever.
There is currently no solution available that can effectively regrow enamel.
Current treatments such as fluoride varnishes and remineralisation solutions only alleviate the symptoms of lost enamel.
The new gel can be rapidly applied to teeth in the same way dentists currently apply standard fluoride treatments.
The new protein-based gel works by mimicking key features of the natural proteins that guide the growth of dental enamel in babies.
When applied, the gel creates a thin and robust layer that impregnates teeth, filling holes and cracks in them.
It then functions as a scaffold that takes calcium and phosphate from saliva and promotes the controlled growth of new minerals in a process called epitaxial mineralization.
This enables the new mineral to be organised and integrated to the underlying natural tissue while recovering both the structure and properties of natural healthy enamel.

Kartik Naach - Narasingh - Hiranyakashyapu - Nepal
Performers dressed as Daitya Gaan, followers of Hiranyakashyapu, perform during the eighth day of the Kartik Naach at Kartik Dabali, Patan Durbar Square, in Patan, Nepal, on November 3, which extends into November 4. The drama depicts Hiranyakashyapu’s tyranny after he receives Brahma’s boon that he cannot be killed by man or animal, during day or night, on earth or in heaven, or by any weapon. The Daitya Gaan enact arrogance, chaos, and the rebellion of demons, creating tension that sets the stage for Narsingh’s arrival to rescue Prahlad and restore dharma.

Vintage repair garage and workshop in Derbyshire.
Roger Thorpe, 80, a mechanic and vintage car enthusiast, has run the workshop in Castleton since 1967. The building was constructed in 1895 for the Hope Valley railway and converted to a garage in the 1930s.
Vintage vehicles at Castleton Garage in Derbyshire, which mechanic and enthusiast Roger Thorpe, 80, has run since 1967. The building was originally constructed in 1895 for the Hope Valley Railway and converted to a garage in the 1930s.
Roger started work as an apprentice mechanic at Rover in Solihull and has beautifully restored a grey Rover 12 Sports Saloon [CEW 103] - “which is like a gentleman’s club inside”. Alongside the Rover is a silver 1920s Bugatti Type 23 [reg SV-7851] which he still races in Vintage Sports Car Club muddy trials across the country. The vehicle - which “has no doors, no hood, no speedo and not even paint to keep the weight down” - is currently being repaired after the gearbox failed while he was competing in Derbyshire in the depths of last winter.
Roger also treasures a blue Vauxhall 30/98,[ DS8294] made in 1924. He is only its fourth owner and has toured the car around Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand. However, it sports a powerful 4.25 litre engine which makes it ideal for classic and vintage hill climb events be racing at Harewood Hillclimb, West Yorkshire, on 3 June.
Tucked away in the corner, under a protective cover, is a 1929 Austin 7 [RX 5591] which he used to teach both his daughters to drive.
Other collectors’ items include a variety of oil cans from 1903 onwards, an Edwardian steering wheel, a rare 1920s petrol pump, a 1960s spark plug machine, manufacturers’ bespoke car repair tool sets, a US army crane for lifting Jeeps, early studded tyres, rare car bonnet mascots, touring car posters and racing event badges.

Vintage vehicles at Castleton Garage in Derbyshire, which mechanic and enthusiast Roger Thorpe, 80, has run since 1967. The building was originally constructed in 1895 for the Hope Valley Railway and converted to a garage in the 1930s.
Roger started work as an apprentice mechanic at Rover in Solihull and has beautifully restored a grey Rover 12 Sports Saloon [CEW 103] - “which is like a gentleman’s club inside”. Alongside the Rover is a silver 1920s Bugatti Type 23 [reg SV-7851] which he still races in Vintage Sports Car Club muddy trials across the country. The vehicle - which “has no doors, no hood, no speedo and not even paint to keep the weight down” - is currently being repaired after the gearbox failed while he was competing in Derbyshire in the depths of last winter.
Roger also treasures a blue Vauxhall 30/98,[ DS8294] made in 1924. He is only its fourth owner and has toured the car around Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand. However, it sports a powerful 4.25 litre engine which makes it ideal for classic and vintage hill climb events be racing at Harewood Hillclimb, West Yorkshire, on 3 June.

Vintage vehicles at Castleton Garage in Derbyshire, which mechanic and enthusiast Roger Thorpe, 80, has run since 1967. The building was originally constructed in 1895 for the Hope Valley Railway and converted to a garage in the 1930s.
Roger started work as an apprentice mechanic at Rover in Solihull and has beautifully restored a grey Rover 12 Sports Saloon [CEW 103] - “which is like a gentleman’s club inside”. Alongside the Rover is a silver 1920s Bugatti Type 23 [reg SV-7851] which he still races in Vintage Sports Car Club muddy trials across the country. The vehicle - which “has no doors, no hood, no speedo and not even paint to keep the weight down” - is currently being repaired after the gearbox failed while he was competing in Derbyshire in the depths of last winter.
Roger also treasures a blue Vauxhall 30/98,[ DS8294] made in 1924. He is only its fourth owner and has toured the car around Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand. However, it sports a powerful 4.25 litre engine which makes it ideal for classic and vintage hill climb events be racing at Harewood Hillclimb, West Yorkshire, on 3 June.
Tucked away in the corner, under a protective cover, is a 1929 Austin 7 [RX 5591] which he used to teach both his daughters to drive.
Other collectors’ items include a variety of oil cans from 1903 onwards, an Edwardian steering wheel, a rare 1920s petrol pump, a 1960s spark plug machine, manufacturers’ bespoke car repair tool sets, a US army crane for lifting Jeeps, early studded tyres, rare car bonnet mascots, touring car posters and racing event badges.

Roger Thorpe, 80, at the wheel of his 1920s Bugatti Type 23 [reg SV-7851] which he still regularly races all over the country in Vintage Sports Car Club’s muddy trials. The vehicle - which “has no doors, no hood, no speedo and not even paint to keep the weight down” - is currently being repaired after the gearbox failed while competing in Derbyshire last winter. The Bugatti is one of several vintage cars in his repair garage and workshop which he has owned since 1967. in Castleton, Derbyshire. The building was originally constructed in 1895 for the Hope Valley Railway and converted to a garage in the 1930s.
Roger started work as an apprentice mechanic at Rover in Solihull and has a grey Rover 12 Sports Saloon [CEW 103]“which is like a gentleman’s club inside”.
Roger also treasures a blue Vauxhall 30/98, [ DS8294] made in 1924. He is only its fourth owner and has toured the car around Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand. However, it sports a powerful 4.25 litre engine which makes it ideal for classic and vintage hill climb events be racing at Harewood Hillclimb, West Yorkshire, on 3 June.
