There are cases that bones were loss at the root of a tooth that prompted dentists to remove the infected tooth.
The current treatment was to pump in artificial bones at the removal of an infected tooth. Then a dentist would drill, fill with artificial bones, install a screw, and then an artificial tooth.
The issue was the metal screw and loss of natural tooth. The artificial bone didn’t fuse with our natural bones, i.e. it would crack one day. Having a metal screw in your body didn’t sound good.
Why didn’t they do the following?
- Analyze our bone’s components or ingredients, i.e. how to make a natural-like artificial bone with similar components.
- The artificial would be in the form of liquid to pump/fill in “the missing or bone loss” around the tooth.
- The bone liquid would fuse to the surrounding natural bones.
- The bone liquid would be hardened later by ultra-violet rays or similar rays.
This would save pain to remove and to drill in our jaw. We would be able to save our tooth, too.
