Revolution in the Surface of Titanium
VITAL-B coating redefines quality standards for titanium implants, pushing the limits of conventional surface treatments.
While traditional methodologies focus solely on roughness modification, VITAL-B offers an unparalleledintegration of mechanical and biological properties.
✅ Superior Performance Guaranteed
VITAL-B doesn’t just coat: it enhances titanium with tangible and lasting benefits:
- Maximum Strength: Adds outstanding surface hardness and exceptional protection against wear, corrosion and abrasion. The reliability of the system over time is guaranteed.
- Biological Safety: The Niobium (Nb) element, an integral part of the coating, ensures exceptional biocompatibility, minimizing the risk of adverse reactions.
- Accelerated Bone Integration: Niobium’s properties enrich osseointegration, facilitating faster and stronger bonding between the implant and surrounding bone tissue.
| Traditional Treatments | VITAL-B coating | |
| Target | Modification of surface roughness only. | Mechanical and biological enhancement. |
| Hardness & Strength | Dependent on basic titanium. |
Significantly increased (Wear, Corrosion, Abrasion).
|
| Final Benefit | Basic support for osseointegration. |
Enhanced osseointegration and long-term safety.
