They got it.

New prosthetics use titanium stumps and mounts. Only material they have
ever found with which the body will make a biological seal where the
titanium passes through the skin. It revolutionaized prosthetics.
Because of it , they are doing some amazing things for those wonderful
guys and gals coming back from Iraq with missing limbs.

No toast for me, but if at night I turn my head at just the right angle
on my pillow, I can go to sleep listening to the radio --- through my
teeth! <g>  I still have them, but they have been drilled, filled,
capped and crowned with enough metal to build  a mini-cooper.
