## Abstract Primary cementless joint replacement depends partly on the ability of bone to heal into those areas of an inserted implant where a gap to surrounding bone initially exists. A new bone preparation technique, compaction, has enhanced gap‐healing around grit‐blasted implants without osteoc

Abstract
A canine study was performed to make a histological and biomechanical evaluation of the interface between bone and two different bioceramic implants. A newly developed glass‐ceramic formed by P~2~O~5~, CaO, SiO~2~, and Al~2~O~3~, giving a crystal phase composed of CaP~2~O~6~AlPO~4~SiP~2~O~7~, was compared to hydroxyapatite (HA) coated Ti6Al4V implants. A total of 24 implants were inserted into the femoral condyle of 15 adult female golden retriever dogs weighing 20–25 kg. There was a 12 week follow‐up. Implants were examined by mechanical testing, histology, histomorphometry, microradiograpic methods, and EDAX analysis. The ultimate shear strength for the HA‐coated implants was significantly higher than in the glass‐ceramic group. When these values were related to the histomorphometric measurements, the difference could be explained by the tissue‐to‐implant contact. The glass‐ceramic showed direct contact only with nonmineralized, osteoid bone. The HA‐coated implants, however, were integrated into the bone. The study indicated that porous glass‐ceramic containing AlPO~4~ causes local osteomalacia and might not be suitable for clinical purposes. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The aim of this study was to investigate the biological and mechanical response of bone to titanium plasmasprayed implants of different roughnesses. Three types of titanium plasma-spray coating were applied to beamshaped implants: Ti2, Ti3, and Ti4, with a Ra of 16.5, 21.4, and 37.9 m, respectively.
## Abstract An apparatus was developed to measure loaddisplacement friction properties at the cancellous bone/porous‐coated metal plate interface. Bone cubes were obtained from different proximal regions of four resurfaced cadaveric tibiae. Three different poroussurfaced metal plates (one fiber mes
This paper evaluates the behavior of hydroxyapatite (HAP) coated and noncoated Ti6Al4V implants in dog tibia after 3 and 5 months implantation. HPA-coated implants were obtained by plasma spraying. XRD, SEM, and EPMA were employed to estimate the coating characteristics and their behavior in vivo. I
