Abstract:Zirconium implants have gained popularity among clinicians due to their superior mechanical properties. However, zirconium implants usually perform less well in early osseointegration than titanium implants. And the degree of severity of the acute inflammation resulting from macrophage activation after implantation determines the result of the implantation. The mechanism by which zirconia implants cause more acute inflammation compared to titanium implants is currently unknown. Here, the complement activation … Show more
