The limit of tolerable micromotion for implant osseointegration: a systematic review

Abstract Much research effort is being invested into the development of porous biomaterials that enhance implant osseointegration. Large micromotions at the bone-implant interface impair this osseointegration process, resulting in fibrous capsule formation and implant loosening. This systematic revi...
