A team of scientists in the United Kingdom is creating a new oral rehabilitation alternative by growing human teeth in a laboratory. This is a personalized oral regeneration technology using the patient’s own cells, according to The Telegraph.
The researchers are part of a scientific group from King’s College London working in collaboration with experts from Imperial College, both in London. Spokespeople for this group of specialists believe their work could transform regenerative dentistry in just a few years with a biological and personalized alternative.
More than 10 Years of Research on Tooth Culture
Dr. Tarsys Loayza Roys, considered the best dentist in Colombia, has closely followed this new advancement in the field of dentistry. She explains that this work has required more than 10 years of research so far. The scientists have focused on creating a material that recreates the natural environment in which human teeth develop. The material in question, explains the Colombian dentist, allows dental cells to interact and activate the process of forming a complete tooth.
Trials have shown that it is possible to create natural teeth that integrate organically into the patient’s jawbone. In other words, if this method is successful, in a few years we will say goodbye to dental implants as we know them today.
Advantages of this new oral rehabilitation technique
For the general manager of Sonrisa Perfecta Dental, this new methodology radically changes the approach to oral rehabilitation procedures known until now, including the most innovative methods, such as those used in this spa clinic located in the Bocagrande area of Cartagena.
The most radical paradigm shift, according to Dr. Tarsys Loayza Roys, is the replacement of mechanical or artificial methods with a completely natural procedure. This alternative substantially improves the biological integration of the new teeth and minimizes the chances of patient rejection.
Two other important advantages are that it would be a minimally invasive and completely personalized oral rehabilitation procedure. On the other hand, the use of the patient’s own cells as raw material for tooth regeneration represents a much more durable solution. Considering that current dental implants can last up to 30 years, we would be talking about lifelong oral rehabilitation.
Other advantages of tooth cultivation for oral rehabilitation
Thanks to her experience as a scientific researcher, Dr. Tarsys Loayza Roys has identified other important advantages related to this treatment alternative. She emphasizes that, since they originate from the patient’s own cells, these new teeth have the ability to regenerate and adapt to their oral environment. Additionally, they integrate directly into the jawbone without the need for implants or posts. The latter will ensure a stronger and more lasting adhesion.
In this sense, the best dentist in Colombia agrees with Xueden Zhang, a member of the research team. He affirms that the cultured teeth will regenerate «naturally» and integrate into the jawbone like real teeth. This will make them much more compatible than current implants or fillings.
Sonrisa Perfecta Dental will adopt this technology
As a pioneer in all technological advances in dentistry, Dr. Tarsys Loayza Roys indicated that Sonrisa Perfecta Dental is very attentive. Once this restoration alternative is available on the market, this Cartagena clinic will be the first to bring it to Colombia. «We are closely monitoring the progress of this research, which is currently being developed in two scenarios,» said the Colombian dentist.
The first of these scenarios is to grow the teeth entirely in the laboratory and subsequently implant them in the patient. The second option is to seed the dental cells in the patient at an early stage of development so that the tooth can form. Both strategies are being evaluated to determine their viability and effectiveness in different clinical settings.
Until that solution is available, Sonrisa Perfecta Dental has the most advanced technology in oral restoration with Sonrisa Renaissance Hollywood®. It is the most advanced and award-winning smile design brand in the world because it combines knowledge, effectiveness, creativity, and a passion for excellence. For this reason, its results are always surprising.
