A historic look at dental progress shows past attempts at tooth swapping by the wealthy failing, while modern science advances point to tooth banks vaccines against decay and stronger denture materials.

Dental Bonding and Tooth Reimplantation Research Advances
The National Bureau of Standards and American Dental Association study silane glue bonds porcelain teeth to acrylic resin bases, reducing risk of seepage and possibly eliminating gold pins, with potential savings up to eight million dollars annually. Dr Harold R Stanley at the National Institute conducts trials on borrowing natural teeth, seeking durable bone growth to retain replacements, while 6,000 teeth volunteered nationwide aid research. A fluorometer at NBS detects early decay through ultraviolet fluorescence, aiding standards for dental care.
