US Army Develops Tooth Cleaning Gum
pryoplasm writes "To help deal with some of the hygiene issues on the battlefield, the US Army worked on a gum to take the place of brushing your teeth. This might be eventually released and marketed to the public. While there are many gums out there that aren't so detrimental to your teeth, this one promises actually to help them out."
Read the article idiot.
"The report also explains that US Army researchers developed a protein that attacks the bacteria that causes plaque, which can lead to gum disease. This protein can easily be incorporated into the gum, making it a serious alternative to toothbrush and toothpaste, the researchers claim. "
I have nothing compelling to say
You might want to take a refresher course, doctor. Xylitol isn't a protein.
You never said Xylitol, and he was right you probably didnt read the article, you just decided to post. And lets see those Ph. D's if you don't mind. Whats that, you don't think you have to show some random person on the internet your degrees that you claim to have? I thought so. Next time you post, why don't you tone down the arrogance a bit, O.K.?
Maybe the 'ext generation aught have teeth, guv'nor.
