In addition, researchers need to work on better integration of the fixture into the bone to ensure osseointegration, said Dr. Kohan. We need to find ways to attach the device and maintain it so it is more secure, he said.

Eventually, the metal pin and processor may be combined, or the processor may be attached with a magnet, added Dr. Kohan.
