Until the discovery of the bone-bonding activity of Bioglass by Hench et al. in the early
1970s, it had not been demonstrated that a synthetic material could bond to living bone …

This review deals with the design of bioactive calcium phosphate coatings deposited on
metallic substrates to produce bone implants. The bioceramic coating properties are used to …

Osseointegration is a sophisticated bone and implant healing process comprising of initial
hematoma formation, immediate osteoimmunomodulation, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis …

The large surface area of highly porous titanium structures produced by additive
manufacturing can be modified using biofunctionalizing surface treatments to improve the …

A polyetheretherketone (PEEK) surface was modified using a sol–gel-derived TiO 2 coating
in order to confer bone-bonding ability. To enhance the bonding strength of the coating …

The present work is a revision of the processes occurring in osseointegration of titanium
dental implants according to different types of surfaces-namely, polished surfaces, rough …

Bioactive materials should maintain their properties during implantation and for long time in
contact with physiological fluids and tissues. In the present research, five different bioactive …

The present study is an attempt to develop a zinc oxide (ZnO) decorated titania (TiO 2)
nanostructured layer over Ti metal by a simple chemical and thermal treatment method. Ti …

In order to elucidate the main factor governing the capacity for apatite formation of titanium
(Ti), Ti was exposed to HCl or NaOH solutions with different pH values ranging from …

Abstract Titanium alloy Ti–13Nb–13Zr was implanted with oxygen ions by plasma immersion
ion implantation. The influence of oxygen ion implantation on the growth of apatite on the …
