Dental implantation, when performed immediately after tooth extraction, simplifies the treatment procedure, resulting in satisfaction for dentists and patients. Dental implants with nanotopography surface modification have been used to promote osseointegration immediately after implantation. We compared two different nanotopography surface implants on the effects of osseointegration immediately after tooth extraction: TiO2 nanotubes (NT-TiO2) fabricated by anodization and Sr-loaded nanotopography Ti (NT-Sr) formed via magnetron sputtering technology. Sr-loaded nanotextured Ti nanotubes (NT-Sr) were fabricated via magnetron sputtering using 99.99% SrTiO3 as the sputtering target. TiO2 nanotubes (NT-TiO2) were fabricated by anodization in 0.5 wt% hydrofluoric acid (HF). After the surface topography, hydrophilicity, chemical components, and interface bonding strength were analyzed, two different nano-topographies were applied for
