Osteoblast-like cell attachment and proliferation on turned, blasted, and anodized titanium surfaces.

Abstract

Surface treatment by anodization may improve initial attachment of cells, proliferation ability, and differentiation activity, which play important roles in providing better osseointegration of implants. More rapid and stronger osseointegration of implants may make it possible to offer the best anchorage and shorten the healing time required prior to functional loading.
