  • Title: Effect of fluoride on the corrosion behavior of Ti and Ti6Al4V dental implants coupled with different superstructures.
    Author: Anwar EM, Kheiralla LS, Tammam RH.
    Journal: J Oral Implantol; 2011 Jun; 37(3):309-17. PubMed ID: 20545548.
    Abstract:
    The effect of fluoride ion concentration on the corrosion behavior of Ti and Ti6Al4V implant alloys, when coupled with either metal/ceramic or all-ceramic superstructure, was examined by different electrochemical methods in artificial saliva solutions. It was concluded that increased fluoride concentration leads to a decrease in the corrosion resistance of all tested couples. The type of the superstructure also showed a significant effect on the corrosion resistance of the couple.
