Micro X-ray Spectral Analysis and Comprehensive In Vivo Study of Modified Titanium Implants

We developed a technique for the complex modification of the surface of dental implant made of VT1-0 titanium that included sequential mechanical treatment and irradiation with powerful ion beams. The chemical composition and physical properties of the surface of titanium implants (VT1-0 grade) sandblasted with subsequent acid etching, as well as subjected to complex treatment (sandblasting and irradiation with powerful ion beams) were evaluated using micro-X-ray spectral analysis. In in vivo experiments, osseointegrative properties of the implants subjected by these treatments were compared. Microrentgenospectral analysis of dental implants subjected to irradiation with powerful ion beams revealed higher indicators of surface cleanliness; in in vivo experiments, morphometric analysis also demonstrated high osseointegrative properties.
