Abstract
Soft tissue adhesion and sealing around dental and maxillofacial implants, related prosthetic components, and crowns are a clinical imperative to prevent adverse outcomes of periodontitis and periimplantitis. Zirconia is often used to fabricate implant components and crowns. Here, we hypothesized that UV treatment of zirconia would induce unique behaviors in fibroblasts that favor the establishment of a soft tissue seal. Human oral fibroblasts were cultured on zirconia specimens to confluency before placing a second zirconia specimen (either untreated or treated with one minute of 172 nm vacuum UV (VUV) light) next to the first specimen separated by a gap of 150 µm. After seven days of culture, fibroblasts only transmigrated onto VUV-treated zirconia, forming a 2.36 mm volume zone and 5.30 mm leading edge. Cells migrating on VUV-treated zirconia were enlarged, with robust formation of multidirectional cytoplastic projections, even on day seven. Fibroblasts were also cultured on horizontally placed and 45° and 60° tilted zirconia specimens, with the latter configurations compromising initial attachment and proliferation. However, VUV treatment of zirconia mitigated the negative impact of tilting, with higher tilt angles increasing the difference in cellular behavior between control and VUV-treated specimens. Fibroblast size, perimeter, and diameter on day seven were greater than on day one exclusively on VUV-treated zirconia. VUV treatment reduced surface elemental carbon and induced superhydrophilicity, confirming the removal of the hydrocarbon pellicle. Similar effects of VUV treatment were observed on glazed zirconia specimens with silica surfaces. One-minute VUV photofunctionalization of zirconia and silica therefore promotes human oral fibroblast attachment and proliferation, especially under challenging culture conditions, and induces specimen-to-specimen transmigration and sustainable photofunctionalization for at least seven days.

Biomaterial engineering surface to control polymicrobial dental implant-related infections: focusing on disease modulating factors and coatings development. Expert Rev Med Devices 2023:1-17. [PMID: 37228179 DOI: 10.1080/17434440.2023.2218547] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Revised: 04/29/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Peri-implantitis is the leading cause of dental implant loss and is initiated by a polymicrobial dysbiotic biofilm formation on the implant surface. The destruction of peri-implant tissue by the host immune response and the low effectiveness of surgical or non-surgical treatments highlight the need for new strategies to prevent, modulate and/or eliminate biofilm formation on the implant surface. Currently, several surface modifications have been proposed using biomolecules, ions, antimicrobial agents, and topography alterations. AREAS COVERED Initially, this review provides an overview of the etiopathogenesis and host- and material-dependent modulating factors of peri-implant disease. In addition, a critical discussion about the antimicrobial surface modification mechanisms and techniques employed to modify the titanium implant material is provided. Finally, we also considered the future perspectives on the development of antimicrobial surfaces to narrow the bridge between idea and product and favor the clinical application possibility. EXPERT OPINION Antimicrobial surface modifications have demonstrated effective results; however, there is no consensus about the best modification strategy and in-depth information on the safety and longevity of the antimicrobial effect. Modified surfaces display recurring challenges such as short-term effectiveness, the burst release of drugs, cytotoxicity, and lack of reusability. Stimulus-responsive surfaces seem to be a promising strategy for a controlled and precise antimicrobial effect, and future research should focus on this technology and study it from models that better mimic clinical conditions.

Abstract
Across years, potential strategies to fight peri-implantitis have been notoriously explored through the antimicrobial coating implant surfaces capable of interfering with the bacterial adhesion process. However, although experimental studies have significantly advanced, no product has been marketed so far. For science to reach the society, the commercialization of research outcomes is necessary to provide real advancement in the biomedical field. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the challenges involved in the development of antimicrobial dental implant surfaces to fight peri-implantitis, through a systematic search. Research articles reporting antimicrobial dental implant surfaces were identified by searching PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, Embase, and System of Information on Grey Literature in Europe, between 2008 and 2020. A total of 1778 studies were included for quality assessment and the review. An impressive number of 1655 articles (93,1%) comprised in vitro studies, whereas 123 articles refer to in vivo investigations. From those 123, 102 refer to animal studies and only 21 articles were published on the clinical performance of antibacterial dental implant surfaces. The purpose of animal studies is to test how safe and effective new treatments are before they are tested in people. Therefore, the discrepancy between the number of published studies clearly reveals that preclinical investigations still come up against several challenges to overcome before moving forward to a clinical setting. Additionally, researchers need to recognize that the complex journey from lab to market requires more than a great idea and resources to develop a commercial invention; research teams must possess the skills necessary to commercialize an invention.

Abstract
Dental implants have been widely accepted as an ideal therapy to replace the missing teeth for its good performance in aspects of mechanical properties and aesthetic outcomes. Its restorative success is contributed by not only the successful osseointegration of the implant but also the tight soft tissue integration, especially the collagen fibers, in the transmucosal region. Soft tissue attaching to the dental implant/abutment is overall similar, but in some aspects distinct with that seen around natural teeth and soft tissue integration can be enhanced via several surface modification methods. This review is going to focus on the current knowledge of the transmucosal zone around the dental implants (compared with natural teeth), and latest strategies in use to fine-tune the collagen fibers assembly in the connective tissue, in an attempt to enhance soft tissue integration.

Abstract
Background: Dental components manufactured with zirconia (ZrO2) represent a significant percentage of the implant prosthetic market in dentistry. However, during the last few years, we have observed robust clinical and pre-clinical scientific investigations on zirconia both as a prosthetic and an implantable material. At the same time, we have witnessed consistent technical and manufacturing updates with regards to the applications of zirconia which appear to gradually clarify points which until recently were not well understood. Methods: This critical review evaluated the “state of the art” in relation to applications of this biomaterial in dental components and its interactions with oral tissues. Results: The physico-chemical and structural properties as well as the current surface treatment methodologies for ZrO2 were explored. A critical investigation of the cellular response to this biomaterial was completed and the clinical implications discussed. Finally, surface treatments of ZrO2 demonstrate that excellent osseointegration is possible and provide encouraging prospects for rapid bone adhesion. Furthermore, sophisticated surface treatment techniques and technologies are providing impressive oral soft tissue cell responses thus leading to superior biological seal. Conclusions: Dental devices manufactured from ZrO2 are structurally and chemically stable with biocompatibility levels allowing for safe and long-term function in the oral environment.

Abstract
Zirconia (ZrO2) ceramic is widely used in dentistry as a clinical dental biomaterial. In this review, we are focusing on and summarizing the biological performance of zirconia under different surface characteristics. We have included an initial tissue cell attachment study on zirconia and bacterial adhesion on zirconia. Our results suggest that surface modifications applied on zirconia may change the interfacial surface characteristics e.g. surface roughness, surface free energy, and chemistry of zirconia. The modifications also result in advanced biological performance of zirconia, including enhanced tissue cell attachment and reduction of bacterial adhesion. The recent laboratory research has provided many interesting modification methods and showed clinically interesting and promising outcomes. A few of the outcomes are validated and have been applied in clinical dentistry.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Changes in physicochemical properties because of implant material aging and natural deterioration in the oral environment can facilitate microbial colonization and disturb the soft-tissue seal between the implant surfaces. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of aging time on the physicochemical profile of titanium (Ti) and zirconia (ZrO2) implant materials. Further microbiology and cell analyses were used to provide insights into the physicochemical implications of biological behavior. MATERIAL AND METHODS Disk-shaped specimens of Ti and ZrO2 were submitted to roughness, morphology, and surface free energy (SFE) analyses before nonaging (NA) and after the aging process (A). To simulate natural aging, disks were subjected to low-temperature degradation (LTD) by using an autoclave at 134 ºC and 0.2 MPa pressure for 20 hours. The biological activities of the Ti and ZrO2 surfaces were determined by analyzing Candida albicans (C. albicans) biofilms and human gingival fibroblast (HGF) cell proliferation. For the microbiology assays, a variance analysis method (ANOVA) was used with the Tukey post hoc test. For the evaluation of cellular proliferation, the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn multiple comparisons were used. RESULTS Ti nonaging (TNA) and ZrO2 nonaging (ZNA) disks displayed hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, and this effect was sustained after the aging process. Low-temperature degradation resulted in a modest change in intermolecular interaction, with 1.06-fold for TA and 1.10-fold for ZA. No difference in biofilm formation was observed between NA and A disks of the same material. After 48 hours, the viability of the attached HGF cells was very similar to that in the NA and A groups, regardless of the tested material. CONCLUSION The changes in the physicochemical properties of Ti and ZrO2 induced by the aging process do not interfere with C. albicans biofilm formation and HGF cell attachment, even after long-term exposure.
