title: Analysis of titanium surface irradiated with laser, with and without deposited of durapatite.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The aim of this study was to analyse the surface of titanium implants using disc irradiated with lasers.
  
  
  METHODS
  Titanium discs were irradiated with laser high insensitive (Nd-YAG), deposited durapatite and used thermal treatment. Sample received qualitative morphological analyse trough micrographics with many size in SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy).
  
  
  RESULTS
  Surface laser irradiation shows roughness and isomorphic characteristic. The durapatite amplified the titanium surface area by method biomimetic.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The surface treatment presented more deposition of durapatite, roughness on the surface, better isomorphic characteristic and increase quantitative in titanium surface area, samples shows rugous, roughness and homogeneity there is not found in the implants available at the market.
