    • Citric acid in the passivation of titanium dental implants: corrosion resistance and bactericide behavior 

      Verdeguer, Pablo; Gil Mur, Francisco Javier; Punset fuste, Miquel; Manero, José María; Nart, Jose; Vilarrasa, Javi; Ruperez, Elisa (Materials, 2022)
      The passivation of titanium dental implants is performed in order to clean the surface and obtain a thin layer of protective oxide (TiO2) on the surface of the material in order to improve its behavior ...
    • Corrosion behavior of titanium dental implants with implantoplasty 

      Lozano, Pablo; Peña, Marta; Herrero-Climent, Mariano; Rios-Santos, Jose Vicente; RÍOS-CARRASCO, BLANCA; Brizuela Velasco, Aritza; Gil, FJ (Materials, 2022)
      The procedure generally used to remove bacterial biofilm adhering to the surface of titanium on dental implants is implantoplasty. This treatment is based on the machining of the titanium surface to ...
    • Effect of implantoplasty on roughness, fatigue and corrosion behavior of narrow diameter dental implants 

      Camps Font, Octavi; Toledano-Serrabona, Jorge; Juiz-Camps, Ana; Gil, FJ; Sánchez-Garcés, M.Angels; Figueiredo, Rui; Gay Escoda, Cosme; Valmaseda-Castellon, Eduard (Journal of Functional Biomaterials, 2023)
      Implantoplasty (IP) is used in dental implants with peri-implantitis and aims to remove threads and polish rough surfaces in order to prevent bacterial colonization. As a result of this procedure, implant ...
    • Mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of Ti6Al4V particles obtained by implantoplasty: an in vitro study. Part II 

      Toledano-Serrabona, Jorge; Sánchez-Garcés, M. Angeles; Gay Escoda, Cosme; Valmaseda-Castellon, Eduard; Camps Font, Octavi; Verdeguer, Pablo; Molmeneu, Meritxell; Gil, FJ (MDPI, 2021)
      In the field of implant dentistry there are several mechanisms by which metal particles can be released into the peri-implant tissues, such as implant insertion, corrosion, wear, or surface decontamination ...
    • Residual stress homogenization of hybrid implants 

      Sanjuán Álvarez, Marta; Robles Cantero , Daniel ; Gil, FJ; Fernández-Hernández, Saray; Pérez-Pevida, Esteban; Brizuela Velasco, Aritza (Bioengineering, 2024)
      Objectives: Hybrid implants commonly exhibit decreased corrosion resistance and fatigue due to differences in compressive residual stresses between the smooth and rough surfaces. The main objective of ...
