Scanning Electron Microscopy

5.1K
A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is used to study the surface features of a sample by using an electron beam that scans the sample surface in a two-dimensional manner. Typically, areas between ~1 centimeter to 5 micrometers in width can be imaged. SEM can be used to image bacteria, viruses, tissues as well as larger samples like insects. Conventional SEM gives a magnification ranging from 20X to 30,000X and spatial resolution of 50 to 100 nanometers.

Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Science
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Tissue Engineering

Background:

  • Titanium miniplates are widely used for maxillofacial fractures due to excellent biocompatibility and corrosion resistance.
  • Concerns exist regarding the release of titanium particles from these implants into surrounding tissues.
  • Long-term implant presence may exacerbate adverse effects associated with particle release.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the release of titanium particles into surrounding tissues from titanium miniplates used in maxillofacial fracture treatment.
  • To provide evidence for the safe and confident application of titanium bone plates and screws in oral and maxillofacial surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of tissue samples adjacent to titanium miniplates used for maxillofacial fracture repair.
  • Histological and elemental analysis to detect and quantify titanium particles.

Main Results:

  • Titanium particles were detected in the surrounding tissues of patients with titanium miniplates.
  • The extent of particle release may correlate with the duration of implant placement.

Conclusions:

  • Titanium miniplates can release particles into surrounding tissues, necessitating further investigation into long-term effects.
  • Understanding particle release is crucial for optimizing the use of titanium implants in maxillofacial surgery and patient safety.
