AB The paper presents research regarding osteointegration of porous materials for implants made for Co-Cr-Mo and titanium with Bioglass type-S2. All the materials were prepared using cold pressing and sintering. The research was made on the castrated goats averaging one year of age, from this oneself herds. Bone growth process on surfaces of implants made with additional bioglass was significantly intense. The amount of osseous tissue and the number of connection points are significantly increased. On surfaces of titanium implants few areas of stochastic callus formation were observed. In that case areas of preferential bone integration have uneven surface due to technological process. A significant difference appears in osseous tissue growth morphology on implant surface. In porous implants bone grows around the pores of an implant. The obtained results showed that porosity influences callus growth intensity beneficially on the implant structure. Use of bioglass increases bone growth intensity on implant surface.
