Titanium surface characteristics induce the specific reprogramming of toll-like receptor signaling in macrophages
(MDPI, 2022)
Most of the research on titanium-based dental implants (Ti-discs) is focused on how they are able to stimulate the formation of new tissue and/or cytotoxic studies, with very scarce data on their effects ...
Laser-deposited beta type Ti-42Nb alloy with anisotropic mechanical properties for pioneering biomedical implants with a very low elastic modulus
(MDPI, 2022)
Present commercial titanium alloy implants have an elastic modulus higher than 100 GPa, whereas that of the cortical bone is much smaller (17–28 GPa). This elastic modulus mismatch produces a stress ...
