  2. 21. On possibly bioactive CP titanium implant surfaces

    Author : Anna Göransson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; titanium implants; surface modification; bioactivity; bone tissue; cell culture;

    Abstract : Background Osseointegrated titanium implants are routinely used in clinical dentistry. Although the overallclinical results are good, there are situations when an improved implant healing is desirable, for instance incompromised bone or in order to decrease healing time. READ MORE

  4. 22. Mechanical Properties of Gamma Titanium Aluminides

    Author : Viktor Recina; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microstructure; intermetallic compound; tensile properties; diffusion bonding; sample preparation; low cycle fatigue; fractography; gamma titanium aluminide; mechanical properties;

    Abstract : In recent years intermetallic compounds have attracted a great deal of attention as structural materials. Among the intermetallics, gamma titanium aluminides (.gamma.-TiAl) are considered to be closest to application. READ MORE

  5. 23. On growth factors and titanium implant integration in bone

    Author : Victoria Franke Stenport; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : growth factors; signal peptides; titanium implants; osseointegration; in vivo studies;

    Abstract : PurposeThe purpose of the present thesis was to investigate the bone tissue response around titanium implants with one growth factor stimulating hormone and a few different growth factor substances.Material and methodsIn four studies (study I to IV) a rabbit model were used and the growth factors i.e. READ MORE

  6. 24. On cobalt-chrome frameworks in implant dentistry

    Author : Lars Hjalmarsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cobalt-chrome; titanium; implants; misfit; corrosion; viability; abutment-free;

    Abstract : Background: Cobalt-chrome (CoCr) alloys have been used in dentistry in decades but very little is known about their behavior and biological impact as framework materials in implant dentistry. Furthermore, few studies have evaluated and compared the clinical and radiological results of abutment and abutment-free implant treatment concepts. READ MORE

  7. 25. Interactions between whole blood and TiO₂ surfaces with focus on adhesion and activation of PMN granulocytes

    Author : Cecilia Eriksson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; titanium; TiO2; surface roughness; oxide thickness; wettability; whole blood; inflammation; wound healing; platelets; PMN granulocytes; adhesion; activation; receptor expression; respiratory burst.;

    Abstract : Foreign materials come in contact with the human body more and more frequently. The surgical procedure of inserting an implant into the body will cause bleeding, evoke an inflammatory response and initiate a healing process, ultimately leading to acceptance or rejection of the material.
