TLDR
There was a significant correlation between an increase in the percentage of mineralized tissue in the threads of metallic implants and cellular density around the implant, indicating less lamellar bone in contact with metallic implants.
Abstract
In this article, we report the results of analyses of bone healing around four types of dental implants. Five implants of each type were inserted into the proximal tibia metaphysis of adult New Zealand rabbits and were analyzed using computerized histomorphometry 12 weeks after implantation. Hydroxyapatite-coated implants showed more direct bone contact and more lamellar bone in the threads than the titanium implants. There was a significant correlation between an increase in the percentage of mineralized tissue in the threads of metallic implants and cellular density around the implant, indicating less lamellar bone in contact with metallic implants.

Histomorphometric and mechanical analyses of the drill-free screw as orthodontic anchorage

TL;DR: With careful technique, drill-free screws can provide stable orthodontic anchorage and show less mobility and more bone-to-metal contact under early orthodentic loading.

Hydroxyapatite deposition by electrophoresis on titanium sheets with different surface finishing.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used electrophoresis to obtain a uniform thin layer, satisfactorily adhered, of hydroxyapatite on treated titanium samples, which can be applied to metallic biomedical implants to accelerate osseointegration.
