Smart tooth: A new revolution

Scientists developed a new dental implant that resembles natural teeth, with sensory function by integrating with nerves and soft tissue.

Biodegradable nanofiber coating, along with stem cells and nerve-growth proteins, allows it to grow into gum tissue and reconnect with the brain without drilling.

Early trials on rodents showed nerve integration and natural function within six weeks. Human trials are yet to be done.

Got to know something interesting.

Regenerative dentistry uses the body’s natural ability to heal and grow new tissues to repair damaged teeth and gums, offering hope for long-lasting solutions beyond traditional treatments.

This breakthrough in regenerative dentistry is truly exciting, offering the potential for implants that function and feel just like natural teeth.

Very interesting topic for dental practitioners. Although it is yet to be tested in humans for safety and predictability, it holds good promise for regenerative dentistry.
