Bone bonding behaviour under load

Selected Abstract

Bone-bonding behaviour under load-bearing conditions of an alumina ceramic implant incorporating beads coated with glass-ceramic containing apatite and wollastonite
The shear load of the glass-ceramic-coated implant was significantly greater than that of the uncoated implant at every stage. Histologic examination showed more ingrown bone tissue in the glass-ceramic-coated implants. It is suggested that apatite wollastonite-glass ceramic (AW-GC) stimulated the ...
