| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Micron scale surface structure is an important prerequisite for biomechnical integrity of titanium implants. Upon intimate apposition of implant in human jaw bone, new regenerated bone surrounding implant fixture comes into the surface, depending on the surface roughness and/or porosity. Such biointegration improves interfacial mechanical interlocking allowing less stress shielding and consequent longevity of titanium implants. In this context, spark discharge anodization of titanium can optimize surface porosity due to the condition of discharge. Moreover, anodized titanium surface allows functionally gradient micron porosities inward, hence toughening of anodized implant is most likely. The optimized surface of titanium implant is also desirable in adaptive bone remodeling. It will maintain biomechanical integrity ob implanted medical devices longer time.
