won't that damage your teeth outer layer of enamel? I guess not as you had it done... did it work? how much?

Someone in the dental community will have to comment. It seemed to do a good job and was very quick. My gums were a little tender afterword, but they usually are after a normal deep cleaning.
If I can locate some soda, I will try the soda blast in my ACE blast cabinet for the next rebuild.

I've herd good things about use in teeth... only my concern about possible enamel damage... I guess no risk no gain...
Now back to our regularly scheduled program...

No one has mentioned baking parts to clean them. The machinist that I use in Huntington Beach has an ultrasonic, soda, media cabinet and what is basically an oven. He cleaned up the heads with that. No leftover residue, just heat and things were good and clean afterwards.

As a Porsche 912 and 356 owner and as a dentist for the past 23 years I must comment. Cars and teeth are not similar. The dental hygiene prophy jet uses a pressure and "soda" quite different than that used on your car. Industrial airborne abrasives are quite an established source of dental abrasion and can destroy enamel. That is not therapeutic for your teeth.
