[Ionic implantation in the dental field].

Authors present the physics bases and the experimental equipment to obtain ion implant in metals. This new technique is already used in orthopaedic field to increase the metal surface quality as adherence and biocompatibility. In Dentistry field this technique can be employed to increase the surface hardness, the resistance to corrosion processes and the resistance to wear of implanted prosthesis.

[Structural modifications induced by ionic implantation on functional surfaces of prosthetic attachments].

Authors present the results on N+ ion implantation of an inox steel matrix set. They show the main utilization of prothesis attachments and their actual classification in prothesis field. The bombarded surfaces show a resistance increase to oxide-reduction processes respect to non implanted ones. Using the SEM technique to different magnifications, Authors demonstrate that the ion implantation increase the material hardness and the wear resistance of treated surfaces. The modifications, that not involve the matrix volume but only the superficial layers, produce an increase in attachment duration and affidability. Authors conclude valuing the possible application on this new technique for material treatment in Dentistry field.
