Nano-technology enters the dental arena
Nano-technology or the study and use of microscopic structures have been found to be more effective as a coating on dental implants, promoting faster and better osseointegration. Traditional dental implants are made of steel and do not quite osseointegrate that inspection through a microscope would show a few microns of a gap that leaves the tooth prone to infection and decay. Once bacteria or food matter enters this gap, the risk of implant failure is so high that it is blamed for the huge occurences of dental implant failures in the US that results in replacement therapy. Using Bone-Like, the implant is first micro-textured to attain a rough surface for the coating to adhere to that is then coated using extremely durable epoxy glues forever bonding the coating to the implant. This technology pioneered in India, places the country as one of the leaders int he dental technology field as opposed to previous trend setters, in the European theater.
