Abstract :
In the present study, the surface properties and osteblastic responses to a titanium–8%tantalum–3%niobium (Ti–8Ta–3Nb) alloy were investigated in vitro. The surface roughness and morphology of all samples appeared similar. The surface of the Ti–8Ta–3Nb alloy was more hydrophilic than those of commercially pure titanium (Tisingle bondS) and Ti–6Al–4V alloy. The Ti–8Ta–3Nb alloy had a better cellular response with regard to proliferation and ALP activity. The present study showed improved surface characteristics and osteoblastic response to the Ti–8Ta–3Nb alloy compared to Tisingle bondS and Ti–6Al–4V alloy.
