  • Patent number: 8329464
    Abstract: The present disclosure uses different kinds of surface treatment processes on titanium-made dental implants. The growth and attachment conditions of bone cells (MC3T3-E), fibroblasts (NIH 3T3) and epidermal cells (XB-2) on the metal surface of titanium slices with different surface treatments are observed. Tetra-calcium phosphate is used to perform secondary sand-blasting process to clean up the metal surface and provide calcium ions for osteoblastoma physiology. Thus, by adjusting the cells adhesive and proliferative abilities, the success rate of the clinical applications in dental implant is improved.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20100313791
    Abstract: The invention provides a calcium phosphate bone cement, a precursor and a fabrication method thereof. The fabrication method comprises: (a) dissolving a calcium phosphate with a low Ca/P atomic ratio in an acid solution, wherein the Ca/P atomic ratio is less than 1.33; (b) adding a calcium phosphate compound into the acid solution to obtain a reaction solution; (c) allowing the reaction solution to stand to grow nanocrystallites on surfaces of the calcium phosphate with low Ca/P atomic ratio; (d) filtering and drying the solution of step (c) to obtain a calcium phosphate powder with low Ca/P atomic ratio having nanocrystallites on the surface; and (e) mixing the powder of step (d) and a calcium phosphate powder with a high Ca/P atomic ratio.
