Hyperbaric Therapy for Auto Immune Diseases

An autoimmune disease arises when the immune system mistakenly targets the body’s own tissues, causing damage rather than providing protection. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) involves the administration of 100% pure oxygen within a specialized environment known as a hyperbaric chamber. While atmospheric air contains only 21% oxygen, HBOT leverages increased air pressure within the chamber to enhance the lungs’ ability to absorb oxygen. This elevated oxygen intake delivers vital oxygen to tissues, promoting healing and aiding in the fight against certain infections.

HBOT operates through multiple mechanisms: it reduces inflammation, combats infections, and facilitates the repair of damaged tissues. The therapy’s pure oxygen content supports the immune system in combating bacteria while stimulating the production of stem cells. These stem cells play a pivotal role in generating various cell types essential for bodily functions, including blood cells, brain cells, and muscle cells. In essence, HBOT fosters tissue repair and enhances overall immune functionality.

Stem-Cell Teeth Implant

The primary objective of this research is to investigate the major advantages of stem cell dental implants alongside their role in tooth regeneration and their potential to replace the already existing dental implant method. Dental implants are considered the latest teeth replacement technology in the 20th century. Despite its obvious purpose, the treatments are still uncommon due to their extensive healing process and other potential risks regarding infections. On the account of these concerns, scientists are looking into new possibilities of teeth replacement treatment and therapy. Stem cell therapy is commonly used for treating diseases by replacing tissues that are damaged due to injuries or diseases. Stem cells are unspecialized cells and are capable of diving and regrowing themselves. Due to these properties, stem cell dental implants are now considered to be a new alternative to teeth implants.
