Mean osseointegration (with standard deviation bars) was plotted for each paired comparison. Data from 6 and 12 week time points were pooled. The hydroxyapatite-coated groups (PHA and CHA) consistently resulted in higher levels of osseointegration than in the uncoated group. The difference between the two hydroxyapatite-coated groups was not significant. (P = plasma-sprayed titanium; PHA = plasma-sprayed titanium with hydroxyapatite coating, and CHA = chemical-textured titanium with hydroxyapatite; * denotes statistically significant difference at p < 0.05)
