Abstract: Objective To investigate the influence of new zirconia implant and surface modified method on the osseointegration to provide evidence for the development and application of the implant . Method Healthy adult New Zealand White male rabbits received two types of implant with identical geometry on the femur: sintered zironcia implant for NO.1,zirconia implant with 10% porous coating for NO.2. Each animal received two types of implant and then healed for three time periods (4,12,and 26 weeks). At each healing time, a push-out test was performed to assess implants stability ,while scanning electron microscopy analysis(SEM)was performed to scan the bone-implant interface. Results Two independent samples t test analysis revealed that there were statistical differences between the two groups at each healing period(4 week t=103.345,P<0.001;12 week t=24.251,P<0.001;26 week t=20.854,P<0.001).Remarkable osseointegrationwas seen with sintered zironcia implant and 10% porous coating zironcia implant. Conclusion The new zirconia implant and surface modified method can enhance the osseointegration.
