Theoretical Calculation Of Surface Energy Of Anatase Tio2 (111) And Zro2(111): An Important Parameter For Osseointegration Of Dental Implants

Abstract

The characteristics of the materials that are used for dental implants are critical for the success of the implant process. Surface energies of the materials that are used for implant surgery are especially important for osseointegration of the implant and to prevent implant failure. In this study, we performed a theoretical analysis of the surface energies of two prominent materials. The surface energies of anatase TiO2 (111) and ZrO2 (111) were calculated with General Utility Lattice Program (GULP). Through analysis of surface energy values, usage of TiO2 (111) and ZrO2 (111) in dental implants is discussed in detail. Obtained theoretical results show that surface energy of TiO2 (111) is greater than the surface energy of ZrO2 (111) which is consistent with the literature.
