Abstract
|
|
|
|
Titanium implant is used as the most popular dental material for replacement of missing teeth recently. A lot of studies on the surface modification of titanium implant have been carried out for enhancing osseointegration. The surface modification techniques could be classified as follows; topographic modifications which provide roughness and porosity, chemical surface modificationss or deposition of osseoconductive materials, and biochemical modifications to immobilize bone growth factors on titanium surface. In this study, the current and ongoing surface modification techniques and its typical characteristics used in clinics were reviewed. In the future, study and implication about biochemical modifications including patient’s individual characteristics will be important.
