## Abstract Titanium and titanium alloys are key biomedical materials because of their good biocompatibility and mechanical properties. Nevertheless, infection on and around titanium implants still remains a problem which is usually difficult to treat and may lead to eventual implant removal. As a

Failures that occur in titanium-ceramic restorations are of concern to clinicians. The formation of poorly adhering oxide on titanium at dental porcelain sintering temperatures causes adherence problems between titanium and porcelain, which is the main limiting factor in the fabrication of titanium-
## Abstract Graded bilayered glassβceramic composite coatings on Ti6Al4V substrates were fabricated using an enameling technique. The layers consisted of a mixture of glasses in the CaOβMgOβNa~2~OβK~2~OβP~2~O~5~ system with different amounts of calcium phosphates (CPs). Optimum firing conditions ha
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM-JEOL JSM 5300) was performed on the fracture surfaces of the mechanically failed specimens to study the interfaces between optical fibers and host materials. The fracture surfaces were vaporcoated with a thin layer of gold to enhance the image.
