  1. 1. On the influence of micro-and macroscopic surface modifications on bone integration of titanium implants

    Author : Patricia Miranda Burgos; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : titanium; dental implants; surface modification; bone tissue; biomechanics; BMP-2;

    Abstract : Background: Osseointegrated titanium implants are routinely used in clinical denstistry as anchorage units for dental prostheses. Although the overall clinical results are good, there are clinical situations when an optimized implant healing is desirable, for instance in order to shorten healing periods and to allow immediate loading.

  2. 2. The effect of tobacco exposure on bone healing and the osseointegrationof dental implants

    Author : Shariel Sayardoust; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; crevicular fluid; dental implants; gene expression; human; implant surfaces; implant survival; marginal bone loss; osseointegration; pain; periodontitis; resonance frequently analysis; smoking; titanium;

    Abstract : Background: The mechanisms behind the impact of smoking on osseointegration are not fully understood. Aim: To correlate the clinical and molecular aspects of osseointegration in smokers compared with non-smokers. READ MORE

  3. 3. On the bone response to oxidized titanium implants. The role of microporous structure and chemical composition of the surface oxide in enhanced osseointegration

    Author : Young-Taeg Sul; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Oxidized titanium implants; micro arc oxidation; oxide growth; surface oxide properties; bone; biomechanical tests; histomorphometry; enzyme histochemistry.;

    Abstract : Background: Titanium implants have been widely used clinically for various types of bone-anchored reconstructions. A thin native oxide film, naturally formed on titanium implants contacts with bone tissue and has been considered to be of great importance for successful osseointegration. READ MORE

  4. 4. Preparation and Characterization of Glow Disharge Modifies Titanium Surfaces

    Author : Björn-Owe Aronsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Titanium; surface modification; surface properties; plasma techniques; oxidation; surface spectroscopy; TiO2; biomaterials;

    Abstract : The main theme of the present thesis is controlled preparation and characterization of oxidized titanium surfaces. Such surfaces are of general technological interest. READ MORE

  5. 5. Healing of endosseous implants with different surface characteristics in grafted and non-grafted bone : clinical and experimental studies

    Author : Måns Jungner; Stefan Lundgren; Malou Hultcrantz; Carina Lundqvist; Peter Nilsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dental implants; surface characteristics; bone graft; maxillary sinus; implant survival; oxidized surface; turned surface; sinus membrane elevation; bone formation; macrophages; osteocalcin; osteopontin; CD68; odontologi; Odontology;

    Abstract : Aims: This study uses radiological and clinical evaluations of the healing of endosseous titanium implants presented with different surface characteristics in the clinical situation (paper I-III) and experimentally to describe the early bone healing in maxillary sinus membrane elevation with and without the use of grafting material (paper IV).Material and methods: In paper I, 136 patients were treated with 394 dental implants – 199 were oxidized titanium implants (Nobel Biocare TiUnite) and 195 were turned titanium surface implants (Nobel Biocare Mark III).
