Healing of the bone around pure titanium implants without primary bone contact / 대한치주과학회지

ABSTRACT

Primary fixation is one of the most important factor in establishing adequate osseointegration between implant and bone. To evaluate the initial healing response of bone around implants without primary bone contact, this study was designed to create considerable space between implant and bone in 5 mongrel dogs, about l-year old. After 3 holes of 6 . h in diameter were prepared at the femur neck of the dogs, commercially pure titanium thread type implants(STERI-OSS
