SAPTeethTM is a group of highly specialized polymers; specially made to protect the bone, implant, or natural tooth. Research shows that ceramic, porcelain, Ni-Cr, and Zirconia teeth exert about 24 to 149 times more stress on bone as compared to SAPTeethTM. This difference is due to the shock absorbing capability of these polymers. Therefore, in patients with weak bone or low calcium, SAPTeethTM are recommended over conventional prosthesis. The best part of these is that they are customized to perfectly re-create your smile. And, that too in a matter of few hours.
The best part of SAPTeethTM is that they are customized to perfectly re-create your smile. And, that too in a matter of a few hours. They are low maintenance and do all things which traditional metal, ceramic, and zirconia couldn’t.
The most advanced material for the crowns is called SAPTeethTM. They exert less stress on the bone, due to their shock-absorbing properties.
SAPTeethTM is specially made to protect the bone, implant, and natural teeth under the prosthesis. They exert 24 to 149 times more shock absorbing than the traditional ceramic, zirconia artificial teeth.
This is a wrong question to ask. The correct question should be, ‘Is it of value to spend on root canal and crown?’
The correct answer to this would be that prevention is better and also the most cost effective way for your teeth. A root canal can be avoided altogether if you visit your dentist regularly and get the recommended fluoridation and fillings on time. In case where the cavity is very deep and root canal is the only option besides extraction, then lets compare:
Root Canal Therapy + Crown or the alternate is extraction + implant + crown. It is obvious that the latter would be more expensive.
Now, you might think why do I need implant, lets just remove it and not replace. In that case, you shall only pay for the extraction now which would be cheaper. But, you should be aware of the consequences.
Loss of one tooth would result in the opposing tooth and the neighboring tooth to migrate into that space. Slowly, as a consequence in a matter of few years multiple or even complete loss of teeth may occur.

SAPTeethTM are a group of highly advanced polymers which are specially made to protect the bone, implant and the natural tooth under it. SAPTeethTM means Shock Absorbable Permanent Teeth. Our natural teeth have a hardness of about 350 mpa to 450 mpa. Ceramic or porcelain or zirconia teeth are very hard compare to natural teeth. Their hardness usually ranges between 2000 to 4500 mpa. We never had an ideal material for making artificial teeth in dentistry. Ceramic was the nearest choice. Ceramic had its own disadvantages. After the revolutionary development of materials like HIPC and PEEK; life has changed dramatically. The hardness of teeth made in HIPC with PEEK framework gives almost the same hardness as natural teeth. The load transmission on gums ligaments and bone is lesser than natural teeth. This keeps our gums and bone and even opposite natural teeth healthy.
SAPTeethTM apply 24 to 149 times less strain on the bone than the alternates. They are 8-10 times lighter than their counterparts. Ceramic or Zirconia and other metals are comparatively hard and would grind the opposite natural teeth. Rather they transmit their entire load to the gums and the bone. This possibly and eventually results in damage to the gums and bone.
The load transmission to gums ligaments and bone is very minimal in SAPTeethTM. As far as patients are concerned, they are happy to have ceramic teeth as they can put higher loads but eventually when there is damage to gums ligaments and bone; the ceramic teeth have to be replaced.
SAPTeethTM apply 24 to 149 times less strain on the bone than the alternates. Chipping of SAPTeethTM can be repaired within a few minutes on the dental chair itself. In case of repeated fractures, one tooth on each side of the fracture needs to be replaced which can also be done on the same day.
With this technology the life of natural teeth gets enhanced, implants have greater success and quality of life is better.
SAPTeethTM is available with International Institute of Dental Research Pvt Ltd, India. And, it is practiced by Royal Dental Clinics, Mumbai.
A root canal therapy is done for inflamed, diseased, or dead pulp in the tooth. The dental pulp is a soft substance that contains the nerve, blood vessels, and connective tissue in the core of the tooth. The pulp chamber is the hollow area in the centre of the tooth that houses the pulp, and it extends down canals into the surrounding bone and into the roots of teeth. Some roots have many root canals, but all of them have at least one.
The following are some of the most typical signs and symptoms of a tooth infection: Tenderness, Pain, Sensitivity, Sour breath, Abscess or Bad Taste.
Other alternate include zirconia, ceramic and metal prosthesis. These prosthesis have various drawbacks, including non-repairability, hard on the bone, ageing concerns, loss of strength with time, increased stress on bone.
As SAPTeethTM are shock absorbable, very easily repairable in the mouth itself, they do not age with time and provide the best solution possible for weaker bone. These teeth act like shock absorbers similar to shock absorbers in your car. In absence of shock absorbers your car suspension would get damaged in no time. Same is the case in natural teeth. The technology of making teeth is also revolutionised.
SAPTeethTM have the heat transmission capability almost as close to the body as available today. Hence, during eating they look and feel natural. They are available in all the shades of the natural teeth and hence it can be accurately matched.
The hardness of teeth made in HIPC with PEEK framework gives almost the same hardness as natural teeth. This is the extreme benefit of this SAPTeethTM technology.
The maximum wear time warranty for SAPTeethTM is 9 to 18 years.
