In this episode, we meet Dr. John Featherstone, Dean Emeritus at the UCSF School of Dentistry. Widely considered a stalwart in the world of dental cariology, Dr. Featherstone was determining optimal settings for laser-tissue interactions as far back as 1980! His team successfully found the mechanisms and dosimetries to transform carbonated hydroxyapatite into a form of HA which is 1000x harder in order to inhibit dental caries. Listen in as we discuss his journey over the course of 50 years.
