Quantitative in vitro comparison of the thrombogenicity of commercial dental implants.

Dental implants with comparable roughness but differing surface chemistry had differing extents of blood contact activation. These data suggest that surface chemistry from anodization augments implant thrombogenicity compared with that from sandblasting and acid-etching, which could have implications for osseointegration.
