Fluoride Modification of Titanium Surfaces Enhance Complement Activation
Immediately after dental implant insertion, blood will be in direct contact and interact with the implant surface and activates inflammatory responses and complement cascades within seconds. The aim of the present study was to determine the ability of fluoride-modified titanium surfaces to activate...
