Research Abstract |
The biomechanical stability of osseointegrated implants is of particular importance, especially the stability which is achieved from structural manipulation at the interface between the implant surface and the bone tissues. Nanoscale b-tricalcium phosphate-immobilized titanium was prepared by discharge into a physiological buffered saline solution. Compared with hydroxyapatite, it has been shown to be effective in generating a bone-like chemical structure on the surface by cooperative interaction between osteoblastic cells and the b-tricalcium phosphate. The present study, after cell cultivation, investigates the nanostructures and biomechanical property differences of a mineralized layer formed on two samples of nano-calcium phosphate-immobilized titanium. A scanning probe microscope study revealed that the mineralized tissue formed on the b-tricalcium phosphate samples after 1 week of cell culture showed significantly higher roughness, compared with hydroxyapatite samples. Nanoindentation micromechanical evaluation of the in vitro generated multilayered structures exhibited thicker bone-like mineralized layers on the β-tricalcium phosphate samples. A successful modification of titanium implants through the cooperative interaction between osteoblastic cells and nano β-tricalcium phosphate is anticipated.
