In this DentistryUnited news analysis, we examine a groundbreaking development in restorative dentistry from Tufts University’s School of Dental Medicine, where a novel neurointegrative dental implant promises to redefine tooth replacement. Traditional titanium-based implants, reliant on osseointegration, lack the sensory feedback provided by the periodontal ligament’s neurovascular network, leading to compromised masticatory function and patient […]

Tooth Regeneration: A Paradigm Shift in Dental Care – Insights from the First Human Trials
By Dr. Syed Nabeel, BDS, D.Orth, MFD RCSI, MFDS RCPSG The field of dentistry stands at the threshold of a groundbreaking transformation. In October 2024, researchers at Kyoto University Hospital initiated the world’s first human clinical trial for a tooth-regenerating drug, marking a significant milestone in […]
Introduction to Bioprinting Imagine a future where we could bioprint a new periodontal ligament, gingival tissue, or even alveolar bone right in the operatory. That’s the promise of bioprinting, a revolutionary fusion of 3D printing and biology that’s shifting restorative dentistry from science fiction to clinical reality. As a dentist, I’ve seen how this technology […]
