Inspired by how bones heal naturally, researchers have engineered a laser-structured hydrogel that could one day replace ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich say they've developed a novel hydrogel that could be used for bone implants in the future.

ETH researchers have developed a novel hydrogel consisting mainly of water and a polymer network. Using laser light, the researchers can very quickly solidify the hydrogel into a material with ...

When a bone break is too severe to heal on its own, surgeons often rely on grafts or rigid metal implants — but both come ...

Bone augmentation techniques have become an integral component of modern dental implantology, addressing alveolar ridge deficiencies and ensuring successful implant placement. These procedures ...

It can be tricky enough getting titanium implants to bond with the surrounding bone, but when the patient has osteoporosis, things get even harder. An experimental coating may help, though, by first ...

The maxillary anterior region is of paramount importance in restorative and aesthetic dentistry, particularly concerning the success of implant placement. Detailed assessment of alveolar bone ...

Zygomatic implants represent one of the most significant advances in treatment options for seniors with severe maxillary bone loss.

DeMille expands diagnostic capabilities with next-generation cone beam CT technology at his Taylorsville practice, enhancing precision for implant placement, sinus lifts, and bone grafting procedures.
