Question

In dental implants, some dentists use soft tissues and bones from different animals, including cows and pigs, after being treated with high temperatures and various chemicals. We ask your eminence about the extent of legitimacy of this process, especially with regard to what was taken from the pig?

Ayatullah Bashir Hussain al-Najafi · Accepted Answer

In the name of Allah, if the nature of the bone, tissue or part taken from the pig or others is changed through burning and medication, then the possibility has been achieved, so there is no objection to the use in the manner mentioned.
In case the possibility does not happen, then if this is the only treatment, which is by such impure (najs) or unclean (the object that touched najs object) object or it becomes inside the human body also, there is no objection to that. Allah knows best.
