Abstract
Titanium Particle Exfoliation from Different Dental Implants after Insertion
Highlights
Titanium has been used as material in dental implants for over 50 years (Buser et al, 2017)
The ANO exhibited significantly less amount of released titanium at both low and high insertion torques compared to others (p = 0.042 and p = 0.001, respectively)
Titanium has been widely used for medical implants such as the oral implant, orthopaedic prosthesis and arterial stent
Summary
Titanium has been used as material in dental implants for over 50 years (Buser et al, 2017). Mechanical properties such as high strength and excellent resistance to corrosion make titanium the most proper substance for an oral implant (Mombelli et al, 2018). The failures of dental implants are still present. The potential cause of implant loss usually is bone resorption. Researchers are always looking for an answer to why early and late bone loss happens. Several causes of progressive bone loss are suspected, including infection, overloading force, systemic diseases, and inflammatory response (Oh et al, 2002; Mombelli et al, 2018)
