There have been studies that show an increased success rate of dental implants that have been coated with Nano-bone materials that have been derived from microscopic shells from sea creatures. The probability of the implant for proper osseointegration is higher than with traditional implants which have used metals which prevents proper absorption. A coating of Nano-materials that have been mixed with glass beads allows the bone and tissue to grow into them allowing a better grip for the implant resulting in a more stable platform for the said dental procedure. The material called “Bonelike” is mainly hydroxyapatite mixed with small glass beads that is applied as a coating onto the implant’s surface which allows the gum and tissues to better absorb the implant lowering the risk of rejection and implant failure.
