Abstract
evaluation confirmed that 15-TZP ceramics could promote bone-implant osseointegration to the greatest extent as compared with pure zirconia ceramics. To conclude, our research has shown that AKT-modified zirconia ceramics can achieve bone integration and soft tissue sealing, indicating that they have a lot of potential for application as a novel dental implant material in the clinical setting.
