Abstract

The aim of this study is to evaluate a new and simple titanium surface modification by calcium treatment. The treatment was carried out by immersing titanium in CaCl2 solution at 80oC. The XPS spectra showed that calcium has been successfully immobilized onto titanium surface. Moreover, the thickness of oxide layer increased after the treatment due to exposure of titanium surface to aqueous solution. In vitro evaluation revealed that the calcium treated titanium shows cytocompatibility including greater cell attachment and proliferation. The results suggested that our current titanium surface modification is promising to improve osteoconductivity.
