Will the dentist soon no longer have to drill?

Will the dentist soon no longer have to drill?

This news almost sounds too good to be true.

Australian dentists state that cavities in your teeth can be treated without drilling. After all, fillings would not always be necessary.

It was thought that early detection of tooth decay and filling cavities is the best way to prevent decay. According to Australian researchers, tooth decay does not always happen quickly. There is often enough time to prevent a cavity from forming in the tooth in some other way.

The researchers' method includes learning to brush better, avoiding drinks with added sugars and applying a high concentration of fluoride to the risk areas.
