Swedish term or phrase: inläkning
Hello

In sentences like;

Peroperativ mjukvävnadskontaminering [II]
av titanimplantat uppvisade en tendens till
sämre ***inläkning*** jämfört med icke-kontamine-
rade implantat.

what is "inläkning" in English (I understand the word itself). I thought this would be easy to find but I'm beginning to wonder if we have an exact word for this.

Thanks

So this seems to be ok for where bones or teeth are concerned but not for skin or hair transplants/grafts. Thanks all

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Cynthia Coan: This answer makes sense from a bone implant standpoint, because a term containing the "länk" root implies a connection, and "osseointegration" can be considered a type of connection.
