A tool made from a modified glue gun can now repair broken bones in surgery by 3D-printing grafts directly onto them. Bone implants have historically been made of metal, donor bone and more recently ...

Researchers created a special glue gun that can 3D print a bone-like substance for fracture repair during surgery and have tested it in early experiments. The prime motive of this innovation is to ...

With slight modifications, hot glue guns commonly used in arts and crafts can repair damaged bones quickly and cheaply, researchers say. Bones can repair themselves after small injuries, but if there ...
