How long until the dental restoration industry lobbies it out to be banned, so they can keep selling their photoshop jobs of people smiling with new teeth alongside crowns and implants, all at an inflated price?

It already happens with nano-hydroxyapatite pastes. In Europe you find them at the supermarket for 5 euro, in USA you need a prescription and it’s sold for $$$

Uh no. You can get nHA toothpaste in the USA without a prescription, not sure why you’d think that. It’s just not a popular item here so it’s not sold at brick and mortar stores for the most part, though some smaller stores have it. But I have no problem ordering the stuff online.

Maybe it changed in the recent years? I remember clearly it was forbidden by FDA for sale without prescription
