Abstract
at 168 h after immersion in saline. Thin and mature tissue capsules with minimal inflammation and vascularization were found in histological sections. We did not detect any unwanted responses around the implants, including inflammation infiltration, suppuration, bacterial infections, tissue lyses, and, finally, implant rejection. This information is expected to be useful for understanding the properties of bioactive ceramic coatings and improving the quality of medical care in dentistry and maxillofacial surgery and other applications of titanium membranes in medicine.
