Özet:

The key factor in success of dental implants is its ability to integrate with the surrounding bone, or in short, osseointegration. The events leading tosuccess or failure of osseointegration of a dental implant takes place mostly at the tissue- implant surface. It would be no doubt to say, that the implant surface offers the greatest potential to alter the process of osseointegration.Although the main purpose of surface modification of implants is to achieve better osseointegration, a shortened period of healing is desirable for both the clinician and the patient.
