Bone and Fibrous Tissue Ingrowth into the Porous Zr-Ti Implants

A Review of Titanium Zirconium (TiZr) Alloys for Use in Endosseous Dental Implants

“…However, an additional 3 were added as they were discovered during the analysis of the search retrieved papers. From the 12 articles that met the criteria, four were dedicated to in vitro and/or mechanical studies of TiZr [17,19,29,35], five articles investigated the performance of TiZr implants in animals [21,36,37,38,39], while three articles analyzed clinical outcomes of TiZr dental implants [6,40,41]. The results of these studies are summarized in Table 1, Table 2 and Table 3.…”

“…Prior to that, in 1987, a study by Shibata et al found that the sintering of larger particle sizes in the formation porous TiZr (40% Zr) implants led to a higher bone ingrowth, when implanted in rabbits, and higher bonding strength as determined by push-out tests [38]. …”

The Performance of Titanium‐Zirconium Implants in the Elderly: A Biomechanical Comparative Study in the Minipig

“…Animal experiments also confirmed the biocompatibility of TiZr alloy implant. An early work employing animal model of rabbit demonstrated high bonding strength and compact bone ingrowth into the porous surface of implant made from sintered large particle TiZr alloy (60%Zr) . The study by Ikarashi et al (2005).…”

“…An early work employing animal model of rabbit demonstrated high bonding strength and compact bone ingrowth into the porous surface of implant made from sintered large particle TiZr alloy (60%Zr). 34 The study by Ikarashi et al (2005). compared the biocompatibility of TiZr, cpTi and chromium.…”

Effects of Sintering Temperature on Mechanical Properties and Biocompatibility of Porous TiZr Alloy Produced by Powder Metallurgy

“…Bu nedenle 1200 °C-2h sinterlenmiş implant örneklerinin kullanıldığı grupta gözenek oranının daha yüksek olması sebebiyle, yeni kemik oluşumu, fibröz bağ dokusu oluşumu ve damarlanmanın daha yüksek olduğu gözlendi. Shibata ve Okuno [24] gözenekli titanyum implantların in vivo olarak yetişkin erkek beyaz tavşanlar kullanılarak araştırıldığını ve implant malzemelerindeki gözenek boyutu arttıkça kemik büyümesinin hızlandığını bildirmişlerdir. Mour ve ark., [25], in vivo ve in vitro deneyler de dahil olmak üzere implant malzemeleri için gözenek oranı ve boyutunun önemini ayrıntılı olarak bildirdi.…”
