Titanium dioxide nanotubes (TNTs) have drawn wide attention and been extensively applied
in the field of biomedicine, due to their large specific surface area, good corrosion …

Application of plasma medicine has been actively explored during last several years.
Treating every type of cancer remains a difficult task for medical personnel due to the wide …

In recent years, the rate of implant failure has been increasing. Microbial infection was the
primary cause, and the main stages included bacterial adhesion, biofilm formation, and …

Most medical implants are made of titanium. When titanium is exposed to air for a long time,
hydrocarbons are deposited and the surface becomes hydrophobic. Cell attachment is …

Objective Even though roughened titanium (Ti) and Ti alloys have been clinically used as
dental implant, they encourage bacterial adhesion, leading to failure of the initial stability …

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) has been intensively researched for direct treatment of
living cells and tissues. Significant attention is now being given to its indirect applications in …

One of the major challenges of implantology is to design nanoscale modifications of titanium
implant surfaces inducing osseointegration. The aim of this study was to investigate the …

Although titanium is the most commonly used dental implant material, its biological aging
directly leads to a lower rate of osseointegration. The aim of this study is to treat aged …

The aim of this study was to evaluate whether combining two treatments to avoid biological
aging of the surface of titanium and zirconia implants; ie, storage in an aqueous solution …

Here, we evaluated time-dependent changes in the effects of ultraviolet (UV) and
nonthermal atmospheric pressure plasma (NTAPPJ) on the biological activity of titanium …
