According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Approaches for an enclosure adapted for placement around a tooth 5 of a patient are described. In one example, the enclosure comprises an inner profile, an outer profile, a hollow protrusion, and a magnetic source. The inner profile of the enclosure corresponds to an outer surface of the tooth of the patient. The hollow protrusion may be disposed on the outer profile of the enclosure to hold a fluid comprising magnetically controlled 10 nanostructures. In one example, the fluid comprising magnetically controlled nanostructures are placed in the hollow protrusion of the enclosure in such a way that the fluid may be in contact with a specified region of the outer surface of the tooth such that the nanostructures move under the influence of the magnetic field and are able to penetrate the 15 dentinal tubules."
