How to regrow or repair bad teeth naturally

Novasonic massagerYes, it is possible to repair and even regrow your teeth using a completely natural method that is actually based on science. A team of Alberta researchers applied for a patent that claims they created a miniature device that will stimulate the jaw bones and gums around the affected tooth. Using the low intensity ultrasound technology, they claim they were able to regrow the root of a tooth and stimulate tooth grow and repair.

Although the technology is not going to be in your local dental office for a few years, I believe we don’t have to wait for it and apply the common sense to do the whole process ourselves. First, we need a low frequency ultrasound source and from all the legally (you can’t buy a real ultrasound machine unless you are a doctor) available sources two come to mind.

First is a Novasonic Massager that can generate a sound vibration of 20,000 Hertz. It is not your regular massager and all you have to do is slightly touch the skin and you can feel the sound waves go deep within your body. I have one myself and love using it.

Second device is more sophisticated and you can find them selling on Ebay. The link searches for the Ebay results for “ultrasound massager” and you will see a bunch of them selling from $100 to $150. They are much more powerful then a Novasonic model and can generate up to 3-5 mHz frequency, so be very careful when using one. You should get one that generates only 1-2 mHz, as 3-5 mHz vibrations don’t go very far - about 1/8″-1/4″ deep.

So, what I do is I apply the sound waves from the device to my teeth and gums for a few minutes every day and get a gentle but thorough massage this way.

via How to regrow or repair bad teeth naturally.

I have a tooth I'd like to regrow, right NOW.  Has this worked for anyone? I want to do this ... so if any doctors know of cancer risks from ultrasounding your tooth roots and jaw, speak up. Or if the people in Alberta have any tips based on their research, let us know. This from Science Daily:
Dr. Tarak El-Bialy, Ying Tsui and Dr. Jie ChenCanadian breakthrough promises the ability to regrow teethScienceDaily (June 28, 2006) — Hockey players, rejoice! A team of University of Alberta researchers has created technology to regrow teeth - the first time scientists have been able to reform human dental tissue.

... Using low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS), Dr. Tarak El-Bialy from the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry and Drs. Jie Chen and Ying Tsui from the Faculty of Engineering have created a miniaturized system-on-a-chip that offers a non-invasive and novel way to stimulate jaw growth and dental tissue healing.

"It's very exciting because we have shown the results and actually have something you can touch and feel that will impact the health of people in Canada and throughout the world," said Chen, who works out of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the National Institute for Nanotechnology.

The wireless design of the ultrasound transducer means the miniscule device will be able to fit comfortably inside a patient's mouth while packed in biocompatible materials. The unit will be easily mounted on an orthodontic or "braces" bracket or even a plastic removable crown. The team also designed an energy sensor that will ensure the LIPUS power is reaching the target area of the teeth roots within the bone. TEC Edmonton, the U of A's exclusive tech transfer service provider, filed the first patent recently in the U.S. Currently, the research team is finishing the system-on-a-chip and hopes to complete the miniaturized device by next year.

"If the root is broken, it can now be fixed," said El-Bialy. "And because we can regrow the teeth root, a patient could have his own tooth rather than foreign objects in his mouth." - scienceDaily

That was three years ago. I've written to ask for an update.  Here is Dr. El-Bialy's profile including his current work. Here is the patent application for the ultrasound device that can regrow teeth.  Ultrasound works to regrow teeth according to this site which does not seem to have been recently updated:
This is about our eighteen month test of using LIPUS to regrow pulp and dentin at an accelerated rate for mature and senior people. The process invigorates the inside of our teeth for increased healthier tissue. The added growth of dentin bolsters the enamel as it was when you were a younger person. In addition to the above an increase of density in mandible bone and upper tooth support solidifies tooth roots. Our experience shows a solid bite equal to that in our teenage years. The ringing of teeth when biting down hard, which we had forgotten entirely, was back again. Professor Paul Sharpe, Head of the Department of Craniofacial Development, King’s College London stated: “A key medical advantage of this new technology is that a living tooth can preserve the health of the surrounding tissues much better than artificial prosthesis. Teeth are living, and they are able to respond to a person’s bite. They move, and in doing so they maintain the health of the surrounding gums and teeth.”

At the present time our technology is at the stage where regrowing teeth is limited to teeth with live roots. The inner part of the tooth, dentin is alive and in regrowing will expand into its initial, youthful proportions. The dentin thereby puts equal pressure on the Enamel part of the tooth as in the younger person. This naturally recurring rejuvenation has a propensity to expel such parts of the tooth enamel which have previously been broken, which may result in its loss. Our experience is based on our use of this methodology and equipment and is now in its third year. Any person planning to use this Canadian LIPUS technique can inquire with questions to our test section. - hopp , lipus.org

I might get my fractured teeth extracted. bridgework may not work and is a considered foreign object. how do I save my fractured teeth or regrow the ones extracted?

mary said...

Its possible- the moment you think it's impossible, it becomes impossible. I'm regrowing my damaged tooth as we speak. Reminds me of that recent news clip about the guy who recently regrew a piece of his skull that was covered by a metal plate.

Xeno said...

Tell us more Mary. What kind of damage does your tooth have and what tools or techniques are you using to repair the damage?

[...] For those who are hoping for a perfect solution to many dental problems, Japanese scientists have been able to grow a new tooth in a mouse.  They did this by taking two types of cells, mesenchymal and epithelial, separately growing large numbers of them, putting them together into a drop of collagen, growing a tiny tooth, and then inserting it into the mouse’s mouth.  The transplant grew into a perfect new tooth.  (Toothless mice can eat again)  Researchers have also been able to regrow mouse teeth from tooth buds extracted from mouse embryos, although in this case the teeth were simpler and with fewer facets.  (Teeth regrown for the first time) Inventors claim that they have developed a device that massages gums with pulsed ultrasonic waves that can grow a toot from a tooth root.  They also say that it can also be used to stimulate bone growth.  (Smile!

Dallas said...

How do you know have you actually tried this or do u just believe what the dentist tells you and that's then end I do remember at one point once you lost your hair that was the end of it too so really its the same concept and it makes since all you got to do is have a bud and it will grow your body can recreate the issue at hand

Betty Barr said...

If using the ultrasonic or Novasonic massager directly in the mouth do you need to use a gel on the teeth or gums? How long should you massage them for?
Would be interested to know too if Mary ever replied.
Thanks for the article Zeno,
Betty

jenn said...

HEllo, I am interested in regrowing teeth fast! I havent smiled in 10 years due to fractured teeth! Any thing I can do at home to regrow my teeth and repair broken teeth by june? I cant afford cosmetic surgery and if I can fixed my teeth by regrowing them from home it would be a blessing. Any help would be appreciated.

Dental Student said...

This is complete BS folks.

Rob said...

Yeah BS because your a dental student and you believe everything they tell you!
"Lets destroy people's teeth so we can make more money" Dental Industry
Seems to me like the researcher never updated because it works too good,
so you may not hear anything about it again.

scott said...

me again i used toothsoap and toothswish and i had a large cicle like crack on my frontright tooth and after 4 months it's just a outline.most of my enamal in the past i brush off when i was 10 i thought i was washing my teeth properly and recently drank a lot of juice so i had very little enamal(i'm 26 now)and now it's growing back. i also have half a dozen craked and chipped teeth my front teeth are brittle and 6 days ago started useing G5 Organic Silica 3 times a day if i notice my cracked teeth growing back i'll let you know.

aldo said...

That is so true. I read the article about the ultrasound thing in 2006 and they said it would be available for people to buy by the end of 2009. Now there is no talk of it as if it never existed.

Adair said...

I would be interested in growing new teeth as well I have lost a couple in the back

Xeno said...

There may be some more affordable dental options in your area. What country and city are you in?

Jen said...

I'M SO DAMN ANGRY... It's 2010 now so why haven’t they released it already? The dental industry obviously doesn’t want the device to be out on market.

debb said...

missouri, st louis

Brad said...

Yes, please tell us more. Pretty PLEASE!!

Jason B said...

Why not just buy the device off of ebay like everyone else..

I just ordered mine a few weeks back and have been doing this..Not sure if it is working but will update if it does.

Xeno said...

Yes, let us know. What is the situation you are attempting to fix with the device you purchased? Anyone else try this and see positive results?

j. paul said...

i'm so worried because i only have my right side to chew food and it is getting worse. i hope someone who has been successful will update us.

Mitch said...

I am a little confused as to what this technique can do, are we talking about growing new teeth from the fround up? or repairing cavities?

carolyn said...

i was checking the device on ebay and was wondering if you put this on your cheek or inside the mouth. sounds little disgusting to put in the mouth. i saw they also use this for other uses too. gonna go back and check them again.

Soledad said...

I'm amazed, absolutely amazed. In 2002, I went to the dentist to have a tooth pulled because I thought that the infection my tooth had only option was to have it pulled. Fortunately, I was able to save the root and my dentist did a root canal as well as bridge work. Last month, 8 years later, pieces of the bridge work started falling off until the whole thing fell off. Mind you, I did not want to go back to my dentist to have this taken care of because this is very expensive work. So I decided to leave my root unattended until I managed to save some money for dental work. Because of the hollow space, my tongue would naturally start touching the root and the amazing happened. After I thought I had no other option than to have the root extracted or have another bridge work, which I did not want, the amazing happened, little by little I noticed that the rooth was growing a tooth. A perfectly healthy tooth! I was so alarmed at this that I did some research on this and found out that as long as there is root left, and the area is massaged constantly, a new teeth/tooth will regrow. Amazing, I'm just astounded at how our bodies are made....

Sal said...

If it had a root canal then it's dead. You're talking nonsense.

dan said...

Well. I am ordering a Novasonic now! To add to my many theraputic devices that I buy. To re-grow & repair teeth. It is recommended to take Cod Liver Oil. Alone this is suppose too repair Teeth. Being an expet on Longevity & Rejuvination. I will advise you to visit Jon Fox website Hillarion & his Omni inert gas device with Xenon. Or just moo & bahh like Herd mentality, nay sayers always do.your welcome.

Hadi said...

What frequency (Mhz) & Amplitude is LIPUS?

rofl said...

Get a life with all this I bought this , I bought that, bullshit. Grow up , they are doing research on ways to repair and regrow teeth , but its nothing more then research still. No clinical trials in humans , stop trying to sell your bs to people with hope.

Rich of Consolidated Health Research said...

Actually, if you did your home work, you would find that they did their home work and first had great success regrowing teeth in rats or mice then did in fact go to clinical human trials and had great success also. It is a PROVEN science now. "HOWEVER"...you also cannot just go buy a vibrator and do the same job. They also in a manner of speaking, seed the tooth root with a prepared substance which helps also to get the desired result. But it does require "both" to get the result.

lol said...

Dont just make up stuff to factualize your lie. There has not been any human trials.Period do your homework and use google. Makeing up stuff is a good way to spread ignorance.

Kyle said...

I've been thinking about buying one of these devices for awhile now, but before any critics jump on this idea I just want to share some personal experience. First of all I stopped using floride awhile ago. Last year I cracked one of my molars from grinding my teeth. It's only been the past 2 years or so since I started grinding from stress. A mouth guard offered little relief. Next thing I know I've cracked my tooth down the middle half way down, and am in a dentist office getting my tooth drilled down and some filling put in. During the process the dentist created another crack in the tooth. I was brushing 3-4 times a day with Sensodyne to keep the pain at bay. Plus ibuprofen. I started doing my research on tooth regrowth. Found alot of interesting info including the LIPUS. My first step was to toss all flouride products. I, my wife, and son started using an olive oil based tooth brushing soap. After about 3 months I noticed the crack through my tooth was moving away from the center. A year later it's only a small line. You ever notice if a light is shined on your teeth you see fine lines? Yeah, those mostly went away too. My wife and son had a visit 2 months ago and a perfect bill of health for their teeth and gums. My next step is LIPUS. Maybe I'll come back here and message when my filling falls out and the tooth regrows. P.S. My sisters a dental student, and my brother was a dentist. Can't deny what they see though ;)

247wkman said...

been wathing this- 5 teeth could use replacement so the miraculous healing technique is encouraging- at least for me to keep the teeth in as long as possible to retain the root. can't afford squat right now and curse those constant sweet binges- i would still have perfect teeth otherwise. anyway what Soledad said was pretty suspicous to me- i mean a route canal invulse filling up the nerve and vein structures - like if you stuffed an animal so i could asume it would be dead. but these doughts can be relieved with a progressive youtube dock so if anyone has got a sonic ultra thingy and it trying to fix there teeth, try and do us a photo doc- video is prefered to show no trickery!

hasti said...

hi dear.
iam searching some ways to repair damaged jaw .cause iam involving it for about 2 years and so intolarable tfor me.
i need help
thanks.

Mark said...

Not exactly speaking nonsense, Had something similar happen. Had a root canal, but the tooth had 4 and they did 3 of the 3/4 of the way. After about 8 years my crown popped off and the post came out, turns out that the root had started to grow and created pressure that cause the post to come out. Unfortunately one of them got infected so I had them redo the root canal. About 6 months later the post got loose again and discovered the 4th one that had been hidden before was creating a new surface under the crown/post and allowed seepage. The dentist was upset that the first dentist had missed this and done such a horrible job of the root canal and said I should get my money back for the job. So I went ahead and had the other root canal done and returned to the other dentist, who had already retired. I felt stupid when he said I was suppose to return as he had only removed the damaged part of the pulp and left room for the pulp to try to return. Which happened some years later. looking back on my records he had me schedule to come back in 1 year for an update because I had agreed to a clinical trial. He told me that a few people teeth could recover this way. Now I feel stupid for not following up with his clinical trial at the time. I don't think the odd are good, but there are a few of us that has the root (if some is left) regrow. I do know that about 7 years later I started to use an ultrasonic toothbrush but don't know if this had any effect(affect).

I just lost a filling in my #14 tooth, which is an upper left molar. Interested in learning about having it regenerate.

digitalangeldonnadj said...

Which model of the Novasonic is used for the teeth?

ileana said...

i wish to repair my teeth naturally, but for the moment my teeth have many white fillings, and i'm still going to the dentist. I have tooth soap in the house (some say it's good b/c it doesn't contain glycerin), but i think i overused it (have put 2-3 strands on the toothbrush), so i quickly (in just a few weeks) got cavities between many teeth. I stopped using the soap. Now i'm using a jason's toothpaste (which i think has glycerin), just to use something. But no fluoride.



i see that the information is out there (here) so it's nice to know we CAN do it, but found no tried-and-true solutions yet. I'll wait.
The Golden Age is approaching fast. It's up to us to make it happen, to materialize the opportunity. There's lots of spiritual stuff surrounding us, you know that, eh? :)

I healed my teeth by lightly brushing two or three times per day with Pure Xylitol (not the mouth rinse).Buy the "packets"like sugar comes in.

Xylito is wood grain alcohol but you will think it is sugar (but it is not sugar!)"taste Great"too!
When I can't brush I even pour on tounge and crunch the granules up in between my teeth and swish the product throughly around and between my teeth for about three or four minutes then spit.

In the AM and PM simply pour the packet in palm of hand dip a "dry" tooth brush in the xylitol power and brush.
(no water needed)A flood of natural saliva will kick in and do the work!

Warning Xylito is safe for humans but is highly toxic to our pets.This has to do with their liver function.

No kidding I have found that xylitol will erase small cavitys and will stop a large cavity in it's tracks allowing the dental hole to actually fill itself naturally to a great extent and repair itself to a large degree in a very short time span.

I have also found any large decay that might be left behind stops growing immediately and becomes hard and useful for chewing again.

PS: You will also immediately notice a pinker tounge and fresher breath the very next morning you awake.

$60 bucks will currently buy a years supply of pure xylito in small paper packets (just like sugar on a resturant table is packed.
And for me $60 is cheaper than a dental bill and drill any day.
Below is where I purchase my packets of xylitol.

ileana said...

A big thank you!

Dennis said...

Ileana You are most welcome!
Stick with it because xylitol begins working day one by stripping (all) of the tarter away from teeth.Therefore the bacteria that feed on that tarter have no way to grow. This means there is no acid left behind on the tooth enamel which is what causes a cavity to form in the first place!(whitens too with out harming enamel)

PS: For tooth abscess:100%liquid "golden seal will totally kill any infection usually over night.(comes with it's own dropper.)
If the mouth is severly tender or(in case the affected area is an upper tooth)simply use 3 to 6 drops mixed in with a "mouth wash bottle cap"filled with water. Swish solution for a couple of minutes and spit.Then place fingers on the out side of jaw and press the infection right out from under the affected tooth.Do this several times a day if possible and always at bedtime (till infection is gone).
Golden seal was first used by native american indians for oral issues (including mouth cancers) and was also used as a natural yellow dye.Don't worry it will brush off the teeth easily. After swishing "only spit" the solution do not rinse as this dilutes it's medicinal effects.(works under caps and crowns too)

If ever in a tooth ache 911 emergency!!!!
Place a slice of fresh cut garlic clove on top of or below the hurting tooth and gently bite down.Garlic is a natural antibotic-pain killer!
The pain will subside almost immediately.
(This also works under caps and crowns)
After a minute or so remove the garlic from mouth and if it's time for bed you will be able to sleep all night pain free.Do not hold raw fresh garlic in mouth for too long or it may irritate the jaw!
For simply restoring teeth from cavity damage remember to stick with xylitol,and ignore other teeth healing remedies because xylitol works it really works!

Xeno said...

Dennis,

Xylitol does not dissolve tarter, I see no way it could ...but Periogen will do that for you.

Also, bacteria don't eat tarter. Tarter is mineral deposits, the reason dentists scrape teeth during cleanings. Tarter above the gum line is called calculus and it does give you more bacteria, not because they feed on it, but because it gives them more places to hide.

I've seen no double blind placebo controlled studies show that Goldenseal helps at all. Prolonged use will cause hypertension, vasoconstriction and diarrhea.

Also, NEVER apply garlic directly to your skin! It will cause lesions. You'll just be in more pain. Use salt water instead of garlic.

But so far, you seem to be right about the benefits of xylitol, and I can't find any significant dangers, other than to dog livers.

- In one study, those who chewed 100% xylitol pellet gum had the lowest risk of cavities.

- "small glucose and insulin responses also suggest that lactitol and xylitol are suitable components of the diet for diabetic patients. " - ajcn

Dennis said...

Works great for me!!!!!

Xeno said...

I don't know why but my instinct is to avoid xylitol. I have no cavities and I use tea tree oil mouth wash and from time to time periogen, or 3% hydrogen peroxide, or my limited supply of the no longer available novamin.
