Roughness-associated parameters of dental implants. (A–D) Graphs highlighting the differences in (A) Ra, (B) Ru, (C) Rsk, and (D) Rku found among the surfaces of the implants. Results are expressed as the mean ± SD of three independent experiments, with + Al Blast, * Laser Sint, £ Ti Blast, % Laser Mach, and ^ Cor Blast (ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s post hoc test) indicating significance. Abbreviations: arithmetical mean deviation (Ra), root mean square deviation (Rq), skewness of the assessed profile (Rsk), kurtosis of the assessed profile (Rku).
