Evaluation of titanium implants with surface modification by laser beam: biomechanical study in rabbit tibias
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate, using a biomechanical test, the force needed to remove implants with surface modification by laser (Nd:YAG) in comparison with implants with machined surfaces. Twenty-four rabbits received one implant with each surface treatment in the tibia, machine...
