This effort enabled her to arrive at a gel, called Papac\u00e1rie (&quot;Cavity-Eater&quot;), which is already being produced by the F\u00f3rmula&amp;A\u00e7\u00e3o (Formula &amp; Action) laboratory. <\/P><br \/> <P>In addition to the advantage of dispensing with rotating cutting instruments, Bussaroli underlines the low cost. Each unit of the product, which sells for R$ 30.00, allows the dentist to perform 60 to 70 fillings. The professor believes that the application of this product will make it possible to extend dental health care to a larger universe of people, especially the low income population, which is almost always excluded access to the system of prevention. <BR><\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ag\u00eancia Brasil S\u00e3o Paulo &#8211; An enzyme extracted from papaya peels, papayene, may become the salvation of people who frequently put off visits to the dentist for fear of the whirring of the drill and all the other discomforts common in the treatment of cavities.
