Enhancing the regeneration of bone defects by alkalizing the peri-implant zone – an in vitro approach
The effects of alkaline pH on the initial adhesion of osteoblasts to titanium surfaces was analyzed by single cell force microscopy (SCFM). In the SCFM measurements, the same cells were used to compare their unspecific adhesion to uncoated titanium with their specific adhesion to collagen coated tit...
