- Additional information
- Presented an original method that allows estimation of bone mass, crucial for dental implantation, directly during surgery without invoking additional techniques such as X-ray based imaging. The results directly feed into improving Nobel Biocare AG's implantation technology as well as towards a standardisation of implant procedures eventually reducing the implantation steps needed to be performed by the clinician.
