Abstract:
In implantodontia osseointegration was defined by the union between the bone and
the surface of an implant, causing a bone formation in the region, without the
development of fibrous tissue between them. After the discovery of the benefits of
titanium for the use of this material in implants, the modifications occurred on the
surfaces of the same ones, in order to produce better results during the
osseointegration phenomenon, as well as greater clinical success. The objective of
this work is to evaluate the success rate of osseointegration in titanium implants
submitted to different types of surface treatment, through a literature review based on
research and scientific work. The present study consists of a literature review,
conducted through electronic search in the Medline, Pubmed, and Scielo databases.
This work is a descriptive research, and was carried out from the beginning of 2017
until the month of June 2018. The work was able to demonstrate that machined
surfaces are becoming obsolete because they are less effective, and that the
biomimetic surfaces are the type of surface modification that most current researches
are gaining, since they mimic the natural physiology during the bone repair process,
although the other forms of treatment also express themselves to be efficient. It is
therefore concluded that changes in the surfaces of the implants is the beneficial
process and
