Abstract

We inserted titan implants with a 5 mm length and 2.5 mm thickness in the femur bone in 3 hybrid 7 old months rabbits. After 3 weeks we sacrificed the rabbits and harvested samples containing both osseous and soft structures around the implant, in order to conduct histopathological investigations. We observed that the soft tissues around the implant, damaged while the implants were inserted and modified after surgery, are in the middle of the regeneration process at 3 weeks. Both connective and muscle components present a regeneration potential, but the healing speed of the connective tissue is higher. Due to this fact, the consolidation of the area around the implant will be achieved mainly with connective tissue, regardless of the its structure before intervention.
