Laser microgrooving and resorbable blast texturing for enhanced surface function of titanium alloy for dental implant applications

Long-term dental implant success is dependent on biocompatibility and osseointegration between the bone and the implant. Surface modifications such as laser-induced microgrooving which increase contact area can enhance osseointegration by establishing and directing a stable attachment between the im...
