Comparative characterization of the skull bones after implantation of titanium biocomposites containing BMP-2 in their coating structure

Bull Exp Biol Med. 2014 Dec;158(2):274-7. doi: 10.1007/s10517-014-2739-y. Epub 2014 Nov 29.

Abstract

The skull bone tissue was studied under conditions of implantation of Grey nanostructured titanium containing biocomposites and bone morphogenetic protein-2 in the coating structure. Implantation of sandblast processed titanium led to more rapid formation of the bone tissue than the use of titanium biocomposites with microarch oxidation (due to porous surface). The type of metal processing was inessential for nanocomposites. Morphogenetic proteins stimulated regeneration and facilitated the formation of structures characteristic of the bone tissue.
