Ultraviolet laser induced periodic surface structures positively influence osteogenic activity on titanium alloys

Background/ObjectiveEndoprostheses might fail due to complications such as implant loosening or periprosthetic infections. The surface topography of implant materials is known to influence osseointegration and attachment of pathogenic bacteria. Laser-Induced Periodic Surface Structures (LIPSS) can i...
