whoo hoo. two posts before noon!
saw this article about how scientists are trying to make a drug dispensing system that goes in your mouth. the idea is to get it small enough that medications would be released from a fake tooth. i'd never heard of anything like this before, but i can see the value of it, since studies show people have a hard time taking their medications on time. if it were on a time release right in your mouth, you wouldn't even have to think about it. the article says you would have to take the tooth out to have it refilled (i wouldn't want to be that pharmacist). i wonder about taste, too. pretty interesting. if you don't have a fake tooth already, would they take out a real tooth to put in the drug dealer tooth?
