On the basis of our observations, we conclude that conventionally plasma-sprayed CaP ceramic-coated implants, as well as MPS-coated implants have a comparable effect on adjacent bone response.

Within the limits of the experiment, we conclude that functional loading of MPS CaP coatings induces a favorable bone response, and furthermore, that the bone response, irrespective of the loading condition, does not differ from conventional plasma-sprayed CaP coatings.

Within the limits of the experiment, we conclude that, in comparison, functional loading does not affect the marginal soft-tissue response to MPS CaP-coated implants. However, in comparison, functional loading might affect marginal bone response to MPS CaP-coated implants.
