First, I would love to take advantage of this technology. Why? I've had a permanent bridge in my mouth for the past 20 years (tooth broke off at gumline...sigh)! Yes, it's better than a removable bridge, but still it takes more work to maintain than the real thing. I looonnng for a real tooth. However, will I ever live long enougn to benefit by this technology. Not a chance. Where do we begin. Cost? Yup. Ask Delta Dental or Concordia if they'll support this. Not a chance. That means probably $20K out of pocket. Next FDA. How long does it take to get a new drug appoved...ones you can buy right now in Europe or Canada. How about the ADA....think they'll jump right in....perhaps, if it means another payment on the Mercedes (er...or Porsche). The point is, I expect to long dead and buried before this is approved and is affordable in the States.
