Potential Causes of Titanium Particle and Ion Release in Implant Dentistry: A Systematic Review

Potential Causes of Titanium Particle and Ion Release

Implant surface characteristics, as well as physical and mechanical properties, are responsible for the positive interaction between the dental implant, the bone and the surrounding soft tissues.

A Literature Review Study on Atomic Ions Dissolution of Titanium and Its Alloys in Implant Dentistry

Atomic Ions Dissolution

The literature surveyed showed that corrosion related to titanium and its alloys has an effect on the health of peri-implant soft and hard tissue and the long term survival of metal dental implants. It can be concluded that presence of the long-term corrosion reaction along with continuous corrosion leads to the release of ions into the peri-implant tissue but also to a disintegration of the implant that contribute to material fatigue and even fracture of the abutments and implant body or both.
