The resultant powder was characterized in terms of phase structure, composition, and particle size. Titanium disks and dental implants were coated with BAG nanoparticles via electrophoretic deposition. Surface characterization of coated implants was conducted. Uncoated and BAGcoated implants were examined for average surface roughness using a confocal laser scanning microscope.
