Researchers at ETH Zurich say they've developed a novel hydrogel that could be used for bone implants in the future.
When a bone break is too severe to heal on its own, surgeons often rely on grafts or rigid metal implants — but both come ...
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 ...
Bones broken in a skiing accident usually heal on their own. But if the break is too severe or a bone tumor needs to be removed, surgeons insert an implant that enables the bone to grow back together.
The company develops implants to repair injuries such as sports injuries, bunions (deformities in the big toe) and hand ...
Bone augmentation techniques have become an integral component of modern dental implantology, addressing alveolar ridge deficiencies and ensuring successful implant placement. These procedures ...
Zygomatic implants represent one of the most significant advances in treatment options for seniors with severe maxillary bone ...
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 ...
A new study published in the Journal of Oral Implantology reports that sinus membrane perforations most frequently occur during implant placement in crestal sinus elevation procedures. Researchers ...
Researchers at ETH Zurich aim to use a jelly-like to produce implants for rock-hard bones. How do they plan to accomplish this? A promising ...
