Titanium Surface is better than PEEK for Spinal Cages in Bone Formation

Titanium Surface Supports Bone Formation (Biloine Young @ OTW)
The titanium alloy surface made by Titan Spine and designed to create a bone-forming response when used in spinal surgery, received a boost when the authors of an article in Spine Journal found it superior in performance to smooth titanium and Polyetheretherketone (PEEK).
The peer reviewed data showed that Titan Spine’s surface, featuring a proprietary combination of textures on the macro, micro and nano levels, significantly increased osteoblast maturation and the local production of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs).
