Abstract
In conventional medicine and life science the most important concept for human life is not only the energy metabolism of mitochondria, but also the environmental energy system and the biomechanical energy system of animals themselves. However, this energy concept continues to be completely over-looked. Introducing not only energy metabolism of mitochondria but also environmental energy, as well as the animals own biomechanical energy of behavior into medicine, the author has established a new concept of Stomato-facial and Neuro-cranial Medicine. From the standpoint of this new concept of medicine introducing environmental energy, the author has developed the new system of gompholic artificial dental root, having root supportive fibrous articulation instead of dental implants, which join with the jawbone via the ankylotic system. Basic studies of artificial roots were reported in the initial section of Part 1. The different concepts between gompholic artificial roots and dental implants are presented in this paper. It has taken 20 years from the development of artificial roots to the completion of clinical artificial root therapeutics. The operative artificial root therapeutics, which persues the better occlusal condition of a patient s masticatory organ is quite different from operational therapy of common diseases. Stomato-facial and masticatory apparatus are the most important organs for maintaining life activity as well as social life for humans. From this aspect it is necessary to establish clinical artificial root therapeutic methods. Practically, in operative artificial root therapeutics, the development of safe, easy and sure methods are the most important. For this purpose, the shapes of artificial roots have been decided considering the organ specificity of mammalian human teeth namely sphening (tearing) as well as tribosing (mashing) substances with mass through mastication, undulated cylinder type short and thick titanium artificial roots as well as operative apparatus respective to artificial roots have been developed. Quite safe and easy methods for implanting artificial roots, with very little bleeding during the operative procedure, have also been developed. After 15 minutes post operatively, the surface of the artificial root and gingival as well as periroot mesenchymal tissue in the operative socket wound completely agglutinates. Therefore, eating is possible 30 minutes after the operation. The implant devices in dentistry and orthopedics, which are now in vogue, are the ankylotic joint system of rigid vs. rigid, namely bone vs. titanium implant adhesion, which had been denied scientifically from the standpoint of geostatics because of collapse under repeated loading. Therefore, in the modern world, except in medicine, the ankylotic joint system has never been tried from standpoint of geostatics in engineering, mechanics, technology, and architecture. In today's medicine, for the sake of lack of concepts of not only energy but also biomechanics, no one has noticed the mistaken concept of the ankylotic joint system of implants. Therefore, not only the concepts of energy as well as biomechanics but also the concepts of the gompholic joint system have to be immediately introduced. After that, medicine can finally reach today's level in science and technology.
