## Abstract Surface characteristics play a vital role in determining the biocompatibility of materials used as bone implants. Calcium ion implantation of titanium was previously reported to enhance osseointegration and bone formation __in vivo__, although the lack of consistent and reproducible eff
## Abstract The most successful metal implant materials currently have relatively smooth surfaces on the micron size scale, with most failures occurring after only 10 years. To move beyond this limiting time scale, texturing methods have been developed to modify the metal surface to enhance integra
