Thermal plasma‑sprayed titanium and hydroxyapatite coatings
Coatings applied by plasma spray to provide metallic and ceramic surfaces that improve osseointegration, fixation and long‑term durability of cementless implants.
Silver‑based antimicrobial surface treatment
Surface modification that integrates antimicrobial silver ions into titanium implant surfaces to reduce biofilm formation and early postoperative infection risk.
Hydroxyapatite coatings with incorporated antimicrobial ions
Plasma‑sprayed hydroxyapatite coatings formulated with incorporated antimicrobial ions to combine osseointegration benefits with infection prevention.
Combined antimicrobial + plasma‑sprayed coating treatments
Integrated application of antimicrobial surface treatments together with plasma‑sprayed coatings on a single implant component to deliver both infection prevention and improved fixation.
Acusure Ag® Hydroxyapatite Coatings with Silver Ions
An innovative coating in which antimicrobial silver ions are incorporated by a proprietary chemical process into the Acusure® hydroxyapatite plasma spray coating to provide a local antimicrobial effect while maintaining osseointegrating efficacy.
Combined Agluna and Acusure Ag Surface Technologies
Unique combined application of Agluna and Acusure Ag antimicrobial surface technologies onto a single implant.
