A Novel Multi-Phosphonate Surface Treatment of Titanium Dental Implants: A Study in Sheep

A Novel Multi-Phosphonate Surface Treatment of Titanium Dental Implants: A Study in Sheep

The aim of the present study was to evaluate a new multi-phosphonate surface treatment (SurfLink®) in an unloaded sheep model. Treated implants were compared to control implants in terms of bone to implant contact (BIC), bone formation, and biomechanical stability. The study used two types of implan...
