Model of the connection to the periodontal tissues of a bio-hybrid implant.

Schematic representation of the natural tooth, osseo-integrated implant and bio-hybrid implant. The bio-hybrid implant restored physiological functions, including bone remodelling, regeneration of severe bone-defect and responsiveness to noxious stimulations, through regeneration with periodontal tissues, such as cementum, PDL and alveolar bone.
