It is possible to seal off small areas of decay, and probably works
for the teeth grinding also.
Look up the word remineralize and teeth
I've heard that even when the whole top of a tooth is gone, you can
get it heal over, but not regrow.
Remineralize Products: Look up Novamin, Recaldent, and ACP (
Amorphous Calcium Phosphate)
These are added to various brands of products including Trident gum
with all the bad fake sugars like aspartame.
I haven't found any products yet, where I like all the ingredients,
but then since my daughter is look at $8,000 for drill and fill of
one big and a bunch of small cavities, I'd say SLS and acesulfame K
are the lesser of the evils.
These are all products WITHOUT fluoride.

ORAVIVE TOOTH REVITALIZING PASTE:

NovaMin is composed of elements naturally occurring in body (and
tooth) chemistry: Calcium, Phosphorus, Sodium and Silica. Its
chemical name is "Calcium Sodium Phosphosilicate". NovaMin is based
on a technology developed for surgical bone regeneration, and has
been successfully used in nearly one million bone surgeries. When
NovaMin contacts water or saliva (during tooth brushing, in this
case), it releases fully-active ions of calcium and phosphorus. These
ions are identical to those present in normal, healthy saliva - just
in higher concentrations. Furthermore, after brushing, microscopic
NovaMin particles stick to the teeth and continue to release ions for
hours afterwards. These essential ions ensure that the natural
self-repair process can take place in an accelerated and enhanced
manner. To learn more about NovaMin, go to NovaMin.com.

like the ticket!
Uncle Harry's Remineralization System for Tooth Enamel

A dentist said I'm wearing away teeth enamel probably from grinding
at night. After years of using non fluoride health food brand
toothpastes, she wants me to use Sensodyne for possible exposure of
nerve endings. It has 5% potassium nitrate to numb and fluoride to
rebuild/remineralize tooth enamel. I read that potassium nitrate is
used to make gunpowder, fireworks, etc. and that it is derived
from various things combined with waste material also used in
fertilizer. She recommends leaving it on teeth all night long for
two months without rinsing although the product says per FDA not to
use more than four weeks. It stings/burns a little which causes the
numbing I guess.
This morning I read Tom's of Maine has a naturally occurring brand
of pot nitrate toothpaste for sensitive teeth. I think tooth
sensitivity and acidic balance has something to do with hormones as
it started right before the mense cycle. I have been drinking non
fluoridated water for 15 yrs. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Jess
