Talk:Push out test

Merger proposal

This tiny little article about the push out test may need to be merged. It has utility, but I believe it needs to be added — along with information about the pull-out test, push-in test etc. — in a new section of the Osseointegration article called "Testing." However, I'm not sure if that is THE article to include it in. If not that article, is there a better article to discuss testing of bone-implant interfaces? Perhaps someone in the know can comment and contribute a paragraph about this topic either there or on an appropriate article. A few related sources:

• Testing of Bone-Implant Interface (1998)
• Features Shared by Pushout and Pullout Tests (1999)
• Extended push-out test to characterize the failure of bone-implant interface (2005)
• Comparison of push-in versus pull-out tests on bone-implant interfaces of rabbit tibia dental implant healing model (2013)
