Description
Summary:Objective The aim of this preclinical in vivo study was to compare histologically and histomorphometrically osseointegration of dual acid‐etched vs. hydrophilic implants. Material and methods Two pairs of implants (Neodent, Curitiba, Brazil), with same macrogeometry but different surface technology (i) dual acid‐etched surface (SAE) treatment with hydrochloric and sulfuric acid followed by microwave treatment and insertion in isotonic saline solution to increase hydrophilicity (SAE‐HD) (test, n = 12); (ii) dual SAE (control, n = 12) were installed bilaterally in the proximal tibia of six beagle dogs. Histologic and histomorphometric evaluation was performed after 2 and 4 weeks in vivo, on non‐decalcified sections. Percentages of bone‐to‐implant contact (BIC) and bone density (BD) were estimated and tested for significant differences with the Wilcoxon signed‐rank test for paired samples (P
