Abstract

Authors present the physics bases and the experimental equipment to obtain ion implant in metals. This new technique is already used in orthopaedic field to increase the metal surface quality as adherence and biocompatibility. In Dentistry field this technique can be employed to increase the surface hardness, the resistance to corrosion processes and the resistance to wear of implanted prosthesis.
