Titanium Corrosion: Implications For Dental Implants.
Titanium has been considered as one of the most biocompatible metals. Studies testing its corrosion resistance have proposed that the titanium oxide layer formed on the metal surface is lost under certain unavoidable conditions to which it is exposed in the oral environment. This questions its property of corrosion resistance in the oral cavity. Hence, there is a need to understand the mechanisms of corrosion, which can help in the long-term stability and function of implants. Here, we review the possible pathways of corrosion of titanium in the oral cavity, its implications and proposed methods of prevention of corrosion.
