Our Summary
This study aims to investigate the effects on PEMF and low-magnitude high-frequency mechanical vibration (MECHVIB) on micro-morphological changes in bone around titanium implants. A total of 15 rats that developed osteoporosis were implanted with titanium in the proximal metaphyses of the tibia after 8 weeks of healing. They were divided into PEMF group and MECHVIB group. Results showed that both treatments significantly improved bone volume around titanium implants on rats with osteoporosis with MECHVIB slightly edging PEMF in effectivity.
