[Osseointegration of IMZ implants. Ultrastructural analysis of a case].
A study with scanning electron microscope of an osseointegrated titanium implants (IMZ) was performed, analyzing the characteristics of the interface bone--titanium oxid. It was observed that the characteristics of the interface were similar to the ones shown by other devices whose design is different (Branemark system). The present study confirms that an adequate surgical technique and a satisfactory post-operation on phase (in which the implant is free of load) lead to the osseointegration of the implant; this facts is proved by the absence of mobility of the device, and also by structural findings typical of normal osseous tissue.
