I had an expirience with my dentist, who is also a friend, and when i told him if he would like to fix "the biggest piece of teeth that he ever seen"! , he agreed, and he put the special paste that they put in the teeth for the repair of a handle on a cretan bichaq. However, the repair was not perfect because in the part of the handle that was thiner the sun light changed slightly the colour. But i guess if the part to be repaired is somehere else than the end of the handle would have been perfect! Dentists can make exactly the right colour.
