| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
One of the important factors for the long time stability of dental implant is biocompatibility. In this study, we focused on the Calcium-Hydrothermal treatment (Ca-HT) for its effect on promoting tissue integration. Calcium modification onto titanium was observed without changing surface roughness. In in vitro study, cell adhesion strength was increased in Ca-HT group. In in vivo study, broader expression of adhesion structure between epithelium and implant was observed. These findings suggest that stronger tissue integration would be formed around Ca-HT titanium.
