OBJECTIVES 目的
To evaluate the influence of instrumentation technique on the early osseointegration histomorphometrics and biomechanical fixation of fully laseretched microgrooves implant surfaces in a sheep model.
以綿羊為受試者,植入全雷射微溝槽表面處理的植體,再以儀器評估早期骨整合的組織型態和生物力學固定的影響。
Materials and Methods: 材料和方法
Six sheep were subjected to bilateral hip surgeries 3 and 6 weeks before euthanasia. A total of 48 implants (∅4.5 mm, 8 mm in length) were distributed among four sites (8 per animal) and placed in bone sites drilled to 4.6 mm (reamer), 4.1 mm (loose), 3.7 mm (medium) and 3.2 mm (tight) in diameter. After healing, the animals were euthanized and half of the implants were biomechanically tested, while the remainder was subjected to non-decalcified histologic processing. The histomorphometric parameters assessed were bone-toimplant contact (BIC) and bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO). Statistical analysis was performed using a mixed model analysis of variance with significance level set at P < 0.05.
A general increasing trend is present from 3 to 6 weeks for most of the variables. The groups prepared to be press fit seemed to present higher values, which were maintained throughout the observation period. The reamer group presented the lowest BIC probably due to the drilling technique; however qualitatively, more new bone seemed to be in contact to the implant surface, at 3 weeks, whereas the implants placed in press-fit situations were mainly supported by cortical bone.
The laser-etched microgrooved implant presented osteoconductive and biocompatible properties for all surgical procedures tested. However, procedures providing increasingly higher press-fit scenarios presented the strongest histomorphometric and biomechanical responses at 3 and 6 weeks.
