by Stephen BrownJanuary 9, 2016

A new fracture healing putty being tested at the University of Georgia, shortens the bone healing time from months to mere days; with the inflicted person being able to get up and move about in a matter of  hours. Researchers are testing  adult stem cells that produce silicone enzymes which helps bone regenerate on a cellular level.

The fracture putty is just one of the possible methods being researched by scientists to accelerate the bone healing process. Some include 3D Printing a structural supports for  the broken bone.  With thise innovations, broken bones may one day, literally, be a thing of the past.

Silicone Bone cells begin to merge within a couple hours, full restructuring of the cells within 2 weeks.
