The influence of surface texture and wettability on initial bacterial adhesion on titanium and zirconium oxide dental implants

BACKGROUND: This study aims to investigate bacterial adhesion on different titanium and ceramic implant surfaces, to correlate these findings with surface roughness and surface hydrophobicity, and to define the predominant factor for bacterial adhesion for each material. METHODS: Zirconia and titani...
