Abstract:Mg-based biodegradable metallic implants are gaining increased attraction for applications in orthopedics and dentistry. However, their current applications are hampered by their high rate of corrosion, degradation, and rapid release of ions and gas bubbles into the physiological medium. The aim of the present study is to investigate the osteogenic and angiogenic potential of coated Mg-based implants in a sheep cranial defect model. Although their osteogenic potential was studied to some extent, their potentia… Show more
