Assessing bone formation on hydrophilic and hydrophobic implant surfaces in a murine model treated with bisphosphonates

ConclusionBoth surfaces enable osseointegration in rats under BP therapy.Clinical relevanceThe study demonstrates that hydrophobic (HFB) and hydrophilic (HFL) implant surfaces can promote osseointegration in rats undergoing bisphosphonate therapy. The HFL surfaces exhibited improved biomechanical performance, higher bone-implant contact, and increased bone volume, suggesting their potential clinical relevance for implant success in individuals on bisphosphonate treatment.
