Polysaccharide Nanobiotechnology: A Case Study of Dental Implant Coating

Dental implant made of pure titanium (Ti) has become one important option to restore the function of lost tooth. However, because of insufficient hardness, it is always scratched during oral hygieneprocedures. To improve its surface hardness,titanium nitride (TiN) coating was prepared. Soft tissue - implant interface is important for blocking bacteria invasion, therefore surface modification is necessary to improve biocompatibility of TiN for fibroblasts.In the present study, TiN coating was modified by hydrothermal treatment incalcium acetate (CaAc) solution and effect of hydrothermal treatment temperature was studied. After treatment,calcium (Ca) wassuccessfully combined into TiN surface and the surface morphology, roughness and hardness were not changed below 140 °C. It is expected that, surface modification with Ca by hydrothermal treatment could made TiN a promising dental implant coating.

Abstract Aim The purpose of this single case study was to evaluate the influence of different implant surfaces on human bone and osseointegration. Methods and Materials A 47-year-old partially edentulous woman received two experimental implants along with conventional implant therapy. Experimental implants placed in the mandibular ramus consisted of machined and anodized surfaces, respectively. After three months of healing, the experimental implants were removed and prepared for ground sectioning and histological analysis. Results The data demonstrate anodized implant surfaces present a higher percentage of osseointegration when compared to a machined surface in cortical human bone after a healing period of three months. Conclusion This single case study suggests an anodized implant surface results in a higher percentage of bone to implant contact when compared to machined surfaced implants when placed in dense bone tissue. However, further investigations should be conducted. Citation Shibli JA, Feres M, de Figueiredo LC, Iezzi G, Piattelli A.

Implant Coating

To improve surface hardness of dental implant made of pure titanium (Ti), titanium nitride (TiN) coating was introduced. However, studies revealed that TiN only showed osseointegration similar or inferior to that of Ti. Therefore it is necessary to improve the biocompatibility of TiN for dental implant coating. In the present study, TiN coating was prepared on pure Ti substrates and hydrothermal treatment was conducted to modify its surface properties. It was found that, TiN surface was partially oxidized after treatment and calcium (Ca) was successfully combined onto its surface. Surface morphology, roughness and hardness were not affected after treatments below 140°C and wettability was obviously improved.
