Cylindric titanium implants of three different diameters were inserted and stabilized in a 3.7-mm burr hole in the rabbit tibia. The purpose of the study was to investigate the interfacial reaction to screw- and cylinder-shaped implants, and to determine if there is a critical gap at the insertion between bone and implant that prevents direct cortical bone apposition on the implant. The study indicated that this critical gap approached zero.Downloads
