This study compared histologically the tissue response of stainless steel and titanium screws when inserted into the calvaria of eight beagle dogs for periods of 1, 4, 12, and 24 weeks. There was minimal fibrous reaction around both screw types with excellent long-term bone healing. After 24 weeks there was no discernable difference in the tissue reaction between the two types of screw.
