A histological evaluation of TiO2-gritblasted and Ca-P magnetron sputter coated implants placed into the trabecular bone of the goat: Part 2.

The aim of this study was to investigate the synergetic influence of surface topography and chemical composition of oral implant materials on bone response. For the experiment screw designed implants were used. The implants were grit-blasted with TiO2 particles.

A mechanical evaluation of TiO2-gritblasted and Ca-P magnetron sputter coated implants placed into the trabecular bone of the goat: Part 1.

The influence of Ca-P magnetron sputter coated implants on the mechanical anchorage was evaluated in a goat model. Therefore, uncoated and coated screw designed commercially pure titanium TiO2-blasted implants were inserted into the trabecular bone of the femoral condyles of 12 goats. The thicknesses of the coatings were 0.

Bone healing capacity of titanium plasma-sprayed and hydroxylapatite-coated oral implants.

The influence of surface quality, in particular surface topography and implant material, was evaluated by inserting titanium- and hydroxylapatite plasma-sprayed coated implants into the maxilla of 10 goats. Three types of plasma-spray coatings were applied to tapered, screw shaped implants; titanium plasma-spray coating (TPS), titanium plasma-spray coating with additional acid passivation (TPSA) and a bilayered coating (TPS/HA) consisting of titanium plasma-spray coating (TPS) and a hydroxylapatite part (HA). In addition, as-machined implants (TiM) were used as control.

The effect of titanium plasma-sprayed implants on trabecular bone healing in the goat.

The bone response to different titanium plasma-sprayed implants was evaluated in a goat model. Therefore, beam-shaped implants were installed into the trabecular femoral condyles of 10 goats. These implants were provided with three different titanium plasma-sprayed coatings (Ti2, Ti3 and Ti4) with a Ra of 16.

Histomorphometrical and mechanical evaluation of titanium plasma-spray-coated implants placed in the cortical bone of goats.

The aim of this study was to investigate the biological and mechanical response of bone to titanium plasma-sprayed implants of different roughnesses. Three types of titanium plasma-spray coating were applied to beam-shaped implants: Ti2, Ti3, and Ti4, with a Ra of 16.5, 21.
