The influence of implant surface roughness on implant treatment outcome is still under debate. A rougher implant surface improves osseointegration but yields greater plaque accumulation and biofilm formation. Hybrid implants have a minimally rough compon...

When introduced into the body, the implant interacts with biological environment and may suffer corrosion. In addition, when this implant is submitted to friction, it may degrade by tribocorrosion due to the simultaneous action of corrosion by the body l...
