HAnano Surface® combines several properties, known to improve osseointegration, in one unique surface modification. 4
HAnano Surface® is a 20 nanometer thin implant surface modification composed of crystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) particles that through shape, composition, and structure mimic human bone tissue. HAnano Surface® is used clinically and has proven to significantly accelerate and enhance osseointegration of implants.*

*osseointegration of human dental implants
Promote Bony Ongrowth
Significantly accelerate and enhance integration of implants using nano-sized crystalline hydroxyapatite particles*
Hydrophilic properties improve adsorption of blood and extracellular fluids, promoting an osteoconductive integration process
Enables newly-formed bone to grow directly into the micrometer topography (roughness) of the implant surface
In laboratory studies using animals, HAnano showed early bone formation and improved implant anchoring*

AxTiHA Integrated with HAnano Surface® *real time
HAnano Surface® Remains Hydrophilic Over Time
Acid etched titanium implants were lowered into dyed water (down to a predetermined length).
Evaluation of liquid absorption after 0, 1, 4, 8 and 12 weeks of storing in glass vials with a Teflon gasket.
Results
HAnano Surface® coated implants remain hydrophilic over time.
Heat treated implants become more hydrophobic over time.
Technology and Process
Application of HA Liquid
In the first step, the coating liquid is applied to the implant.
Thin Film Formation
In the second step, excess coating liquid is removed forming a thin film.
Heat Treatment
The final step involves a short heat treatment
