Biointegrated hydroxylapatite-coated dental implants: 5-year clinical observations.

The clinical results of 772 biointegrated hydroxylapatite-coated titanium dental implants are discussed. The longest radiographic follow-up was done at 5 years, with a success rate of greater than 95%. Supporting animal research with other titanium implants is also provided.
