Part 2/11:
The speaker begins by addressing a broad audience, asking how many people undertake their own dental care. He describes a personal experience with a broken tooth at or above the gum line, which was so minor that it seemed repairable outside of a dental clinic. Despite his enthusiasm, he strongly urges viewers not to attempt these procedures at home, emphasizing safety and the importance of professional dental care.
His method involves sterilizing the area with 35% hydrogen peroxide, which he admits burns intensely but is effective at killing bacteria and removing decayed tissue. He then mixes Marine Tech—an adhesive material similar to dental resin—adding silver dust and glass to the mixture. The silver serves an antimicrobial purpose, reducing bacteria within the repair.
