Femtosecond laser structuring of titanium implants

TL;DR: In this article, the femtosecond laser surface treatment of titanium was performed in order to determine the potential of this technology for surface structuring of titanium implants, and they found that the femto-cond laser produces a large variety of nanostructures (nanopores, nanoprotrusions) with a size down to 20nm, multiple parallel grooved surface patterns with a period on the sub-micron level, microroughness in the range of 1-15μm with various configurations, smooth surface with smooth micro-inhomogeneities,

The relationship of surface roughness and cell response of chemical surface modification of titanium

TL;DR: Results showed that surfaces treated with HCl–HF–H3PO4 had higher roughness, lower cytotoxicity level and better biocompatibility than controls and addition of calcium chloride into mixed solution of three acids containing HCl, HF and H3 PO4 is an important, predominant and new technique for obtaining biofunction in metals for biomedical use including dentistry.

Surface modification of CP-Ti to improve the fretting-corrosion resistance: Thermal oxidation vs. anodizing

TL;DR: The study reveals that surface modification of CP-Ti by both anodizing and thermal oxidation improved the fretting-corrosion resistance ofCP-Ti and among them the performance of thermally oxidized CP- Ti is superior to that of the anodized one.

Intra-osseous anchorage of dental prostheses. I. Experimental studies.

TL;DR: An investigation of factors controlling healing and long term stability of intra-osseous titanium implants to restore masticatory function in dogs revealed that an integrity of the good anchorage of the implant requires non-traumatic surgical preparation of soft and hard tissues and a mechanically and chemically clean implant.

Relationship between surface properties (roughness, wettability) of titanium and titanium alloys and cell behaviour

TL;DR: The relationship between surface roughness and the sessile drop contact angles of various engineered titanium surfaces such as commercial pure titanium (cp-Ti), titanium-aluminium-vanadium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V), and titanium-nickel (NiTi) was shown in this paper.
