m o c . k c o t s r e t t u h S / t c e t i h c r A t o n k r a F © implants now also available in e-paper Newly improved e-paper player implants—international magazine of oral implantology can now be read online in a freshly improved e-paper design. The new version was launched at the beginning of 2018—the e-paper player having been completely refurbished—and is now offering readers an even more user-friendly experience with new features and an even clearer navigation structure. The entire print portfolio of the OEMUS MEDIA publishing house is available online through the improved player. The interactive content menu assures an easy orientation within the entire issue proving a comfortable navigation already at the first click. Additional multimedia information—like videos, photo galleries, literature references and product information—is now accessible through a slim flyout menu located above the e-paper, thus the reader is not redirected to a new tab, but at a glance gets a clear overview. Author and company profiles on ZWP online have been optically improved and are highlighted through the new design. The innovative e-paper player is, hence, corresponding to the extended communicative and technical possibilities of the dynamic developments in dental online media.

The research project funded by the Ministry of Economic Affairs of the German state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania combines project partners from both science and economy, including the Institute of ImplantTechnology and Biomaterials, an Associated Institute of Rostock University. In order to properly load implants into the jaw, it is often necessary to stimulate bone regeneration or use bone replacement material. The healing process of the latter has so far been more complicated and time-consuming. The project team is therefore researching the possibilities of colonising the bone material with stem cells of the patient. The stem cells’ potential of stimulating bone growth and regeneration shall thus improve the healing process. The main goal of the scientific research cooperation is to develop a procedure for the even colonisation of bone material with stem cells. The researchers have thus developed a so-called bio reactor in order to manage this process under specifically defined environ- mental conditions. The development of such a reactor prototype has been a milestone in the research project. The first stem cell colonisation experiments have already shown promising results. If and to what extent the colonised material can reduce the implant healing time will be further researched until the end of 2019.
