Impact of Wound Closure on the Corrosion Rate of Biodegradable Mg-Ca-Zn Alloys in the Oral Environment

Magnesium alloys have exhibited a rapid rate of corrosion and thus early implant failure, so this study was designed to investigate the longer-term effects and in particular on wound closure. The aim of the study is to evaluate Mg-Ca-Zn Alloys as promising biodegradable implants in the field of maxi...
