Notes:
In the present investigation, four titanium (Ti) surfaces of dental implants were comparedthrough in vitro systems. The surface roughness of Ti was measured by TR240 mobile surfaceroughmeter. The Ti implants were seeded with human periodontal ligament cells (hPLDCs) andmaintained for a period of 0-7 days. The adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of hPLDCswere observed by using Cell morphology, cell counting and Osteocalcin (OC) immunofluorescentstaining. Results suggest that surface roughness of titanium favors hPDLCs behavior and improvescell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation
