Early osteointegration evaluation of porous Ti6Al4V scaffolds designed based on triply periodic minimal surface models

Porous architecture designed using triply periodic minimal surface models can achieve gradually changed pore size and appropriate porosity for bone regeneration. This kind of structure can mimic the Young's modulus of natural bone tissue, improve the stress transmission capability and dismiss the stress shielding effect. It also can stimulate the early bone integration in vivo and enhance the binding force between bone and implants, which may bring a new design method for orthopaedic implants and their surface structure.
