Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of different chemically modified titanium surfaces on protein adsorption and the osteoblastic differentiation of human embryonic palatal mesenchymal (HEPM) cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Three different surfaces were evaluated. The first, a machined surface (Ti-M), was considered a control. The second surface was acid etched (Ti-AE). The third surface was prepared by exposing...
