Nondestructive measurements of implant-bone interface shear modulus and effects of implant geometry in pull-out tests

Nondestructive measurements of implant-bone interface shear modulus and effects of implant geometry in pull-out tests.

Push-out and pull-out tests are used for destructive evaluation of implant-bone interface strength. Because nondestructive mechanical tests would allow maintenance of an intact interface for subsequent morphological study, we developed such a test to determine the shear modulus of the interface by measuring the shear deformation of a thin layer adjacent to the implant. A polyurethane foam model...

Dental Implant Design and Biological Effects on Bone-Implant Interface

Although dental implants have become a predictable aspect of tooth replacement in prosthodontic treatment [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6], failures of up to 10% are still encountered. Furthermore these failures have been more associated with “soft” bone quality [7], 1985) such as encountered in the maxillary posterior area [8, 9, 10, 11, 12]. In a review article by Esposito et al [13], bone quality and volu...

Bone implant interface, osteolysis and potential therapies.

Understanding and controlling the bone-implant interface.

A goal of current implantology research is to design devices that induce controlled, guided, and rapid healing. In addition to acceleration of normal wound healing phenomena, endosseous implants should result in formation of a characteristic interfacial layer and bone matrix with adequate biomechanical properties. To achieve these goals, however, a better understanding of events at the interfac...
