The aim of this study was an in vitro investigation of the Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) enzymatic activity related to different surface treatments applied to ten implant systems in order to assess if the interaction between cells and implant (osteoblastic proliferation and differentiation) was influenced by the surface structure and/or surface...

Aim of this study was to investigate the biological activity of eight bone graft materials analyzing their influence on osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. The materials were classified as: Synthetic materials: Sintbone (Ghimas), Fisiograft (Ghimas) and Ostim (Heraeus-Kulzer). Animal-derived materials: Biogen (Biotek), BioOss...

The main used processes of modification of the implant surface are: machining, sandblasting, etching and oxiding. They have the purpose to reduce the times of the osseointegration and to improve its quality. The aim of this study was to investigate how these processes macroscopically (at 5 m depth) modify the implant surface and its chemical...

The modification processes of the implant surface morphology aim to reducing the times and improving the quality of osteointegration. Starting from the assumption that osteoblasts play a very important part during the osteointegration process, the purpose of this experimental study was to evaluate whether and how much the typology of the...

The more and more frequent aesthetical requests from the patients have brought the actual dentistry to use, especially in prosthodontics, materials highly technological and reliable, from a physical-mechanic point of view, produced by the industry to such purpose and above all to an always smaller use of metallic substructures. But are such...
