Electrochemical Behavior of Ti6Al4V Alloy Used in Dental Implants Immersed in <i>Streptococcus gordonii</i> and <i>Fusobacterium nucleatum</i> Solutions

The titanium alloy, Ti6Al4V, is used in dentistry for dental implants because of its excellent resistance to corrosion and its high biocompatibility. However, periimplantitis is considered the main reason for treatment failure. The Ti6Al4V alloy was used to study the corrosion behavior for dental im...
