Objective Osseointegration has been a proven concept in implant dentistry and orthopedics
for decades. Substantial efforts for engineering implants for reduced treatment time frames …

Anatomically, the human tooth has structures both embedded within and forming part of the
exterior surface of the human body. When a tooth is lost, it is often replaced by a dental …

Osseointegration of metallic devices has been one of the most successful treatments in
rehabilitative dentistry and medicine over the past five decades. While highly successful, the …

Many studies have found that the threshold of occlusal force tolerated by titanium-based
implants is significantly lower than that of natural teeth due to differences in biomechanical …

The basic concepts from the fields of biology and engineering are integrated into tissue
engineering to develop constructs for the repair of damaged and/or absent tissues …

Screw-shaped endosseous implants that have a turned surface of commercially pure
titanium have a disadvantage of requiring a long time for osseointegration while those …

Craniomaxillofacial congenital anomalies comprise approximately one third of all congenital
birth defects and include deformities such as alveolar clefts, craniosynostosis, and microtia …

Bone quality as well as its quantity at the implant interface is responsible for determining
stability of the implant system. The objective of this study is to examine the nanoindentation …

Background Relying on surface topography alone to enhance the osteointegration of
implants is still inadequate. An effective way to combine long-term ion release and surface …

Micro-and nanoscale surface modifications have been the focus of multiple studies in the
pursuit of accelerating bone apposition or osseointegration at the implant surface. Here, we …
