“…In the past few years, there has been growing interest in the effects of different surface features at various scales on cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation (Anselme et al, 2010;Chen et al, 2014;Li et al, 2016;Skoog et al, 2018;Zhang et al, 2019). It is well recognized that micro-scale structures ensure the initial stability of the implant and promote the bone locking (Saruta et al, 2019), while nano-scale structures have more significant effects on the adhesion and differentiation of cells (Kim et al, 2013;Gorelik and Gautreau, 2014;Cimmino et al, 2018). Furthermore, it has been illustrated that the regulatory effect of nano-scale structures is precisely based on the mechanical retention provided by the micro-scale structures, i.e., the initial stability of intraosseous implants (Deng et al, 2019).…”
