GALAN JR., João  e  VIEIRA, Ronan Miranda. Characterization of the surfaces of dental implants commercial in MEV/EDS. Rev. Bras. Odontol. [online]. 2013, vol.70, n.1, pp. 68-79. ISSN 1984-3747.

The purpose was to characterize the surfaces morphology and the superficial chemical composition of related osseointegrable implant systems. The evaluated samples presented characteristics of superficial roughness except for Externo Laser® implants, having Titamax® and Implant External Hex® implants presented roughness characteristics promoted by blasting of particles and the Osseotite®, Implant Revolution® and Máster Porous® implants presented porous characteristics.There are morphologic differences among implants of different companies.
