Longitudinal Variation of Electrical Potential on Osseointegrated Bone

Abstract—Osseointegration could be described as the modality for stable fixation of titanium implant to bone structure. Streaming potential or bone strain generated potential (SGP) is an electrical potential and considered to be generated by fluid flow in bone. Bone Piezoelectric potential (PZP) is an electrical potential and considered to be generated by deformation in bone. Since changes in boundaries on bone-implant affect deformations of bone matrix and interstitial bone fluid flow, it could be postulated that bone electrical potential (SGPZP) could be used as a parameter to examine the amount of osseointegration on bone-implant interface. For the purpose, nine electrodes including one reference were instrumented on the wet composite for the one-dimensional mapping of SGPZP during compression tests. The peak magnitudes of SGPZP were found to be significantly increased when the measurement position was approached for the interface of implant-bone. The results could indicate that the spatial SGPZP behavior of osseointegrated implant-bone composite could be caused by the interface of the implant-bone.
