For the first time, a complete and exhaustive characterization of a unique batch of this glassy alloy was performed, together with ISO standard mechanical tests on machined implant-abutment assemblies. The results were compared to the benchmark Ti-6Al-4V ELI (Extra-Low-Interstitial) to assess its potential in dental implantology. The thermal stability, corrosion and sterilization resistance, cytocompatibility and mechanical properties were measured on samples with a simple geometry, but also on implant-abutment assemblies\u2019 prototypes. Results show that the glassy alloy exhibits a quite high thermal stability, with a temperature range of 38 \u00b0C between the glass transition and crystallization, a compressive strength of 2 GPa, a certain plastic deformation (0.7%), a hardness of 5.5 GPa and a toughness of 56 MPa.\u221am. Moreover, the alloy shows a relatively lower Young\u2019s modulus (96 GPa) than the Ti-6Al-4V alloy (110\u2013115 GPa), which is beneficial to limit bone stress shielding. The BMG shows a satisfactory cytocompatibility, a high resistance to sterilization and a good corrosion resistance (corrosion potential of \u22120.07 V\/SCE and corrosion current density of 6.0 nA\/cm2), which may ensure its use as a biomaterial. Tests on dental implants reveal a load to failure 1.5-times higher than that of Ti-6Al-4V and a comparable fatigue limit. Moreover, implants could be machined and sandblasted by methods usually conducted for titanium implants, without significant degradation of their amorphous nature. All these properties place this metallic glass among a promising class of materials for mechanically-challenging applications such as dental implants.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ma11020249","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,2,6]],"date-time":"2018-02-06T14:31:17Z","timestamp":1517927477000},"page":"249","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":54,"title":["On the Potential of Bulk Metallic Glasses for Dental Implantology: Case Study on Ti40Zr10Cu36Pd14"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Alethea","family":"Liens","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"INSA-Lyon, MATEIS Laboratory, University of Lyon, UMR CNRS 5510, 20 Avenue Albert Einstein, 69621 Villeurbanne CEDEX, France"},{"name":"Anthogyr SAS, 2237 Avenue A.
