Abstract

Results of the application of selective laser melting technology for making implants of different porosity have been presented. The basis for the construction was the Wigner–Seitz cells of 1–3 mm in size with a wall diameter of 0.2–0.3 mm. Basic metal powder Ti6Al4 V with the average size of particles equal to 30 μm is characterized by sufficiently high degree of purity and the lack of detrimental impurities. The selective laser melting technique was chosen in this study which provided necessary geometrics and microstructure parameters of cellular construction. Laser melting was performed at the Realizer SLM 50 installation, and argon was used for the protective atmosphere in the working chamber. Experimental study of elastic and strength properties of cellular materials on a universal floor electromechanical testing machine (Instron 5885H) has been carried out. Physical–mechanical properties of the obtained samples correspond to the bone tissue properties. Developmental models of jaw implants for the study of the bone structures regeneration after the introduction of implants in laboratory animals have been produced. Observation of the animals did not reveal the rejection of implants and the integral indicators (temperature reaction, appetite, behavior) were in the normal range. The cellular structure promotes to reduce the time of bone tissue regeneration.
