Osseointegration of implants coated with titanium carbide nanostrucure.

      Аннотация: A hard nanostructured Titanium Carbide film deposited on titanium implants by the simple Ion Plating Plasma Assisted procedure protects the implant from the harsh oxidizing conditions of biological tissues and stimulate, by its micro and nano roughness and chemistry, the adhesion, proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts and the recruitment of platelets, promoting a more efficient and faster osseointegration of the implant into bone.
