This research was to study the biocompatibility of in-house ceramic materials; consisted of different ratios of magnesium-doped alumina (MDA) and yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ). Materials 1-3 (M1-3) were 40, 50 and 60% MDA, respectively. Six male dogs were used for subcutaneous implants in the rig...
