Q: I have heard of stem cell treatment for bone loss. What are your thoughts on this? I would like to look for implant retained denture, but I want a fuller profile as my mouth looks very drawn as it’s unsupported due to the lack of bone. How do I know the best outcome for me?
A: They have been reports of research with some types of stem cells, however we are years away from a breakthrough. The closest modality we have is the use of a laser protocol which promotes the use of your own cells in your body to regenerate new bone.
