Effect of Surface Treatment of Multi-Directionally Forged (MDF) Titanium Implant on Bone Response

Multi-directional forging (MDFing) of titanium drastically improved its mechanical properties due to the evolution of an ultrafine-grained structure. Forging strain was repeatedly applied while changing the forging axis during MDFing. Of note is the decreased elastic modulus of MDFed titanium (MDF-T...
