Abstract:Purpose
This study aimed to clarify the effects of surface modification of titanium (Ti) implants by low-temperature atmospheric pressure plasma treatment on wound healing and cell attachment for biological sealing in peri-implant soft tissue.
Methods
Hydrophilization to a Ti disk using a handheld low-temperature atmospheric pressure plasma device was evaluated by a contact angle test and compared with an untreated group. In in vivo experiments, pl… Show more
