Fixation of Auricular Prostheses by Osseointegrated Implants
Placement of enosseous implants in the temporal bone may overcome the apparent disadvantages of skin adhesives and skinpockets for the fixation of auricular prostheses. The surgical procedure for placement of implants in the temporal bone and the results obtained in eight patients wearing implant-supported auricular prostheses are described.

The effect of smoking on the marginal bone loss around implant-supported prostheses
Introduction Implantology has led to several changes in the planning process involved in the application of dental prostheses to diminish bone level changes along the margins of dental implants. However, the relationship between smoking and marginal bone

Bio-tribocorrosion mechanisms in orthopaedic devices : mapping the micro-abrasion-corrosion behaviour of a simulated CoCrMo hip replacement in calf serum solution [PDF]
Load bearing implant prostheses such as orthopaedic hip and knee implants may be considered as tribocorrosion systems since the wear processes are a result of combined mechanical and chemical mechanisms.
