      acid-etched Ti implant surfaces in rabbit tibias.

AB  - PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of two different 
      implant surface treatments on initial bone connection by comparing the Removal 
      Torque Values (RTQs) at 7 and 10 days after chemically modified, sandblasted, 
      large-grit and acid-etched (modSLA), and Laser-etched (LE) Ti implant placements. 
      MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty modSLA and 20 LE implants were installed on the 
      left and right tibias of 20 adult rabbits. RTQs were measured after 7 and 10 days 
      in 10 rabbits each. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) photographs of the two 
      implants were observed by using Quanta FEG 650 from the FEI company (Hillsboro, 
      OR, USA). Analyses of surface elements and components were conducted using energy 
      dispersive spectroscopy (EDS, Horiba, Kyoto, Japan). RESULTS: The mean RTQs were 
      12.29 +/- 0.830 and 12.19 +/- 0.713 Ncm after 7 days (P=.928) and 16.47 +/- 1.324 and 
      16.17 +/- 1.165 Ncm after 10 days (P=.867) for LE and modSLA, respectively, 
      indicating no significant inter-group differences. Pore sizes in the LE were 40 
      microm and consisted of numerous small pores, whereas pore sizes in the modSLA were 5 
      microm. In the EDS analysis, Ti, O, and C were the only three elements found in the 
      LE surfaces. Na, Ca, Cl, and K were also observed in modSLA, in addition to Ti, 
      O, and C. CONCLUSION: The implants showed no significant difference in 
      biomechanical bond strength to bone in early-stage osseointegration. LE implant 
      can be considered an excellent surface treatment method in addition to the modSLA 
      implant and can be applied to the early loading of the prosthesis clinically.
