Uncoating modified sandblasting surface modification for improving the osseointegration of titanium dental implants

Titanium and its alloys constitute the gold standard materials for oral implantology in which their performance is mainly conditioned by their osseointegration capacity in the host’s bone. We aim to provide an overview of the advances in surface modification of commercial dental implants analyzing and comparing the osseointegration capacity and the clinical outcome exhibited by different surfaces. Besides, the development of peri-implantitis constitutes one of the most common causes of implant loss due to bacteria colonization. Thus, a synergic response from industry and materials scientists is needed to provide reliable technical and commercial solutions to this issue. The second part of the review focuses on an update of the recent findings toward the development of new materials with osteogenic and antibacterial capacity that are most likely to be marketed, and their correlation with implant geometry, biomechanical behavior, biomaterials features, and clinical outcomes.

Titanium Dental Implants

Osseointegration of titanium dental implants is the most important clinical parameter for an implant to be successful. One of most biocompatible material, titanium can be made to affix fast on to host bone via various modification of its surface. Machined and smooth titanium implant osseointegrate into living bone tissue but with a roughened surface, this is much more predictable as well as promising clinically. Surface modification allows for an increase in the surface area on to which the osteoblasts easily start laying bone. So, there have been various methods to roughen the surface of titanium implants. The article describes various methods used for modifying the surfaces of dental implants, giving a note on their clinical efficacy as well as advantages and disadvantages of these methods.
