Coating of dental implants with nanoparticles can lead to improved fixation of implants.
The aim of this study was to review the reported antimicrobial nano-coatings of Ti surfaces (dental implants) for anti-inflammatory, tissue integration, and osteogeneration aims.
The data were collected from Google Scholar, PubMed, and Scopus sources.
The results showed that the antimicrobial nano-coatings of Ti surfaces exhibited a reduction in initial bacterial adhesion, concomitantly with an increase in the attachment of human gingival fibroblasts. In addition, the application of these surfaces resulted in anti-inflammatory effects with different mechanisms. Some nano-coated titanium surfaces have also shown enhanced hydrophilicity and corrosion resistance, aiding the adhesion and proliferation of osteoblasts.
Coating Ti surfaces with antimicrobial nanoparticles can improve soft tissue integration and osteogeneration, leading to improved fixation of implants. Moreover, such coatings may profit biocompatible surfaces with a controlled release profile for the antimicrobial agents.
