| Description: |
This article proposes less‐invasive subperiosteal bone‐bonding devices capable of realizing rapid osseointegration and the acquisition of fundamental knowledge required for their development. Three candidates were prepared: titanium rod specimens with a machined surface (Bare), hydroxyapatite (HAp) coating, and hydroxyapatite/collagen (HAp/Col) nanocomposite coating. To investigate bone formation around these rods, each specimen was placed under the periosteum of a male Sprague‐Dawley rat calvarium. Four weeks after surgery, the samples were evaluated via histomorphometrical analyses and bonding strength tests. All the Bare specimens and more than half of the HAp specimens were encapsulated with fibrous tissue, whereas all the HAp/Col specimens were almost completely surrounded by new bone tissue without encapsulation. Histomorphometrical analyses showed that the HAp/Col group had the greatest bone contact ratio among all candidates ( p < 0.05). Further, a bonding strength test indicated that the HAp/Col group exhibited the greatest bonding strength to bone ( p < 0.05). Thus, HAp/Col‐coated rods are considered as the best candidate materials for achieving rapid osseointegration onto a bone surface. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
