In the orthopedic and dental fields, simultaneously conferring titanium (Ti) and its alloy
implants with antibacterial and bone-bonding capabilities is an outstanding challenge. In the …

Biomaterials are engineered to develop an interaction with living cells for therapeutic and
diagnostic purposes. The last decade reported a tremendously rising shift in the requirement …

Background Immediate function has become an accepted treatment modality for fixed
restorations in completely edentulous jaws. It is known that implant microtopography …

Additive manufacturing (AM) has started to unfold diverse fields of applications by providing
unique solutions to manufacturing. Laser cladding is one of the prominent AM technologies …

Purpose: The aim of the present systematic review was to assess the effect of local
zoledronate (ZOL) delivery (topical or as implant surface coatings) on osseointegration …

Background Peri‐implantitis is an inflammatory response to bacterial biofilm resulting in
bone loss and can ultimately lead to implant failure. Because of the lack of predictable …

The osseointegration process between the host's bone tissue and the titanium implant is the
key to success of implantology. The literature highlights the high success rate of …

Dental implant therapy is a well-accepted treatment modality. Despite good predictability
and success in the early stages, the risk of postplacement inflammation in the long-term …

Light elements such as oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) significantly impact the microstructure
and mechanical properties of Ti-based materials through solid solution strengthening. The …

This study investigated the surface characteristics and biocompatibility of ultrafine-grain pure
titanium (UFG Ti) after sandblasting and acid etching (SLA) treatment to determine an …
