Biomechanical Measurements of Calcium‐Incorporated Oxidized Implants in Rabbit Bone: Effect of Calcium Surface Chemistry of a Novel Implant

Abstract: The Ca-reinforced surface chemistry of the oxidized implants significantly improved bone responses in a rabbit model. The present study suggests that biochemical bonding at the bone-implant interface, in combination with mechanical interlocking, may play a dominant role in the fixation of Ca-incorporated oxidized implants in bone. The observed rapid and strong integration of test Ca implants may have clinical implications for immediate or early loading and improved performance in compromised bone.

“…titanium (Skripitz & Aspenberg 1998) and hydroxyapatite-coated implants (Edwards et al 1997). Our recent series of investigations on anionincorporated (sulphur or phosphorus) and cationincorporated (calcium or magnesium) titanium implants indirectly verified biochemical bonds in animal models (Sul 2003;Sul et al 2004Sul et al , 2005Sul et al , 2006Sul et al , 2008.…”

“…The healing periods used by various authors for assessing the bone implant contact in rabbits are 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 weeks [5357]. However, the best results have been between 6 and 12 weeks of insertion period [51, 5355]. The 6-week healing period was carefully chosen after literature search.…”

“…It is well documented that protein adsorption and cell attachment are improved by HA coating with bioactive materials 44,45) . It has also been suggested that biochemical bonding by electrostatic bonds is possible between the interface of bone tissue and the calcium of calcium-incorporated implants 46) . A number of studies on in vitro protein adsorption suggest that calcium possibly provides a bridge between titanium and macromolecules 47,48) .…”
