Osseointegration of functionally-graded Ti6Al4V porous implants: Histology of the pore network
Abstract
Abstract The additive manufacturing of titanium into porous geometries offers a means to generate low-stiffness endosseous implants with a greater surface area to improve osseointegration. In order to optimize pore size in the scaffolds, it is important to first understand the timeline of osseointegration in pre-clinical models. In this work, selective laser melting was used to produce gyroid-based scaffolds with a uniform pore size of 300 μm …
