Protein coating improves dental implants

Severe gum disease leads eventually to loss of teeth. Their replacement - is an urgent task of dentistry, but its solution is similar to picking up the puzzle.

Research ways to grow tissue around the prosthetic teeth were in the past 20 years, and they have not given encouraging results.

Some biomaterials like gidroksoappatita, chemically similar to components of the bone can be used for implantation, but sometimes they are bad for the regeneration of the surrounding tissue.

If necessary for the operation conditions are met, then the restoration of dental tissue around the implant should be done in just two weeks.

In the dental wound wells have proposed to place the stem cells and, therefore, to strengthen the dental implant is a hole covered with a so-called morfeoneticheskogo protein that turns stem cells into bone.

This gives rise to cells that are firmly fixed implant due to the fact that contact with its surface as well as with the jawbone. Thus there is an almost complete regeneration of lost tooth roots.
