Hi everyone. I just got my tooth extracted on the 5th(almost 10 days ago) with bone graft. My gums are still swollen. I saw the dentist a week from my surgery and he told me to brush the area well and come back in a week. Is it normal for it to swell this much… doesn’t seem like it’s getting better. Also the roof of my mouth seems swollen as well. Thanks for any advice!

The Allevi 3 (formerly BioBots) is one of the most accessible desktop bioprinters for dental research and small-scale clinical use. But can it really help your patients today? Let’s break down its capabilities, limitations, and real-world practicality for dentists.
Professor Mashudu Tshifularo's pioneering middle-ear transplant demonstrated that 3D printing can reconstruct the mechanical pathway for sound. To expand this into a cure for broader deafness, we propose NEURAL COCHLEAR RECONSTRUCTION (NCR)—a multi-layered approach combining 3D bioprinting, stem cell technology, and neural interface engineering.

It was a cold winter morning in Connecticut when Michael, a 47-year-old construction supervisor, walked into a dental office with a look of exhaustion and pain. For nearly two weeks, he had been unable to sleep properly. The throbbing pain coming from his lower molar had become unbearable.
"I think the tooth is gone," he told the dentist.
Bone tissue is a living structure that constantly changes throughout life. Many people assume bones remain static once they reach adulthood, but the human skeleton is continuously rebuilding itself through a process known as bone remodeling. This process allows old or damaged bone tissue to be removed and replaced with healthy new bone.
