The two main factors that lead to implant failure are insufficient osseointegration and bacterial infections. The available surface coatings and surface modification techniques are incapable of providing long-term stability. Additionally, the factors of cell adhesion and survival are mostly influenced by the implant surface features of chemical construction, surface energy, wettability (hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity), coarseness, topography, and surface arrangement. Laser surface texturing (LST) is recognized as the most promising method for the production of biocompatible, antibacterial, and suitable surfaces for advanced bone mending due to offering accurate control over surface topography, morphology, wettability, and chemistry. This approach can provide micro and nano-texture patterns for a broad variety of biomaterials. The present study investigated and introduced the impression of Laser surface texturing (LST) on some physical and chemical characteristics of dental implants in order to aid the conduction of assessments on novel designs of dental implants.}, keywords = {Surface modification LST Micro,texture Nano,Texture}, url = {https://www.nanomedicine-rj.com/article_703100.html}, eprint = {https://www.nanomedicine-rj.com/article_703100_0ba7aea5b517e1c648f61e747f806a82.pdf} }
