Abstract

Osseointegration was discovered in 1962 and coined as a term in 1977. Original definitions implied direct contact between foreign materials and bone without any interposed soft tissue layers. Today, osseointegration is regarded to be a foreign body response to separate foreign elements from bone. A new definition of the term is suggested in this paper; “Osseointegration is a foreign body reaction where interfacial bone is formed as a defense reaction to shield off the implant from the tissues”.
