Abstract

PURPOSE: Despite decades of clinical success with microrough implant surfaces, persistent challenges-particularly the biological trade-off between osteoblast proliferation and differentiation-highlight the need for novel surface design strategies. This review investigates the potential of meso-scale topography (10-500 μm) as a promising and underexplored dimension in implant surface engineering, situated between macro-level implant geometry and conventional microroughness. METHODS: A systematic review, supplemented by a targeted literature search, was conducted to evaluate the biological and m
