Stem cell tooth buds. Grow a brand new tooth right in place. Being experimented 
on currently.

Should be able to replace a whole mouthful of teeth in a few years. Then there 
would be the

fallback, nano molecule by molecule rebuilding and diamond outter coating to 
prevent wear from

ever happening again. Looking forward to the first option soon and then the 
second someday.
