Scientists Develop Toothpaste from Human Hair

August 18, 2025

Scientists have created toothpaste based on human hair, claiming that this product actually fights cavities. Keratin, a component found in hair, forms a strong mineral coating that resembles the structure of natural tooth enamel, which protects teeth and can close exposed nerve channels. Currently, the new toothpaste is undergoing clinical trials, and there is a possibility that it could be available for sale in as little as two years.
