Previous studies have shown both Ta and TaeO to be bioactive, rapidly forming a strongly-bonded surfaceadherent layer of bone-like hydroxyapatite (HAp) when immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF). Consequently, Ta and TaeO coatings are promising for the surface-modification of Ti or stainless steel endodontic endosseous implants, being conducive to a reduction in the risk of developing post-operatory infection ...
