Introduction:
Dental implants are a usual treatment for the loss of teeth. The success of this therapy is due to the predictability, safety and longevity of the bone-implant interface. Dental implant surface characteristics like roughness, chemical constitution, and mechanical factors can contribute to the early osseointegration. The aim of the present article is to perform a review of the literature on surface roughness of dental implant and osseointegration.
Methodology:
This work is a narrative review of some aspects of surface roughness of dental implant and osseointegration.
Conclusion:
Despite technological advancement in the biomaterials field, the ideal surface roughness for osseointegration still remains unclear. In this study about surface nanoroughness of dental implant and osseointegration, the clinical relevance is yet unknown. Innovative findings on nanoroughness are valuable in the fields of dental implantology, maxillofacial or orthopedic implant surfaces and also on cardiovascular implants in permanent contact with patient's blood.
