Abstract
Titanium dental implants with various restorative options are popular for replacing missing teeth due to their comfortable fit, excellent stability, natural appearance, and impressive track record in clinical settings. However, challenges such as potential issues with osseointegration, peri-implant bone loss, and peri-implantitis might lead to implant failure, causing concern for patients and dental staff. Surface modification has the potential to significantly enhance the success rate of titanium implants and meet the needs of clinical applications. This involves the application of various physical, chemical, and bioactive coatings, as well as adjustments to implant surface topography, offering significant potential for enhancing implant outcomes in terms of osseointegration and antimicrobial properties. Many surface modification methods have been employed to improve titanium implants, showcasing the diversity of approaches in this field including sandblasting, acid etching, plasma spraying, plasma immersion ion implantation, physical vapor deposition, electrophoretic deposition, electrochemical deposition, anodization, microarc oxidation, laser treatments, sol-gel method, layer-by-layer self-assembly technology, and the adsorption of biomolecules. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the surface modification methods for titanium implants to address issues with insufficient osseointegration and implant-related infections. It encompasses the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of these methods to provide researchers and dental professionals with a robust resource to aid them in their study and practical use of dental implant materials, ensuring they are thoroughly knowledgeable and well-prepared for their endeavors.

Abstract
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma accounts for 80% of primary liver cancers, is the most common primary liver malignancy. Hepatocellular carcinoma is the third leading cause of tumor-related deaths worldwide, with a 5-year survival rate of approximately 18%. Chemotherapy, although commonly used for hepatocellular carcinoma treatment, is limited by systemic toxicity and drug resistance. Improving targeted delivery of chemotherapy drugs to tumor cells without causing systemic side effects is a current research focus. Chitosan, a biopolymer derived from chitin, possesses good biocompatibility and biodegradability, making it suitable for drug delivery. Enhanced chitosan formulations retain the anti-tumor properties while improving stability. Chitosan-based biomaterials promote hepatocellular carcinoma apoptosis, exhibit antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, inhibit tumor angiogenesis, and improve extracellular matrix remodeling for enhanced anti-tumor therapy. Methods We summarized published experimental papers by querying them. Results and Conclusions This review discusses the physicochemical properties of chitosan, its application in hepatocellular carcinoma treatment, and the challenges faced by chitosan-based biomaterials.

Abstract
Peri-implantitis is a bacterial infection that causes soft tissue inflammatory lesions and alveolar bone resorption, ultimately resulting in implant failure. Dental implants for clinical use barely have antibacterial properties, and bacterial colonization and biofilm formation on the dental implants are major causes of peri-implantitis. Treatment strategies such as mechanical debridement and antibiotic therapy have been used to remove dental plaque. However, it is particularly important to prevent the occurrence of peri-implantitis rather than treatment. Therefore, the current research spot has focused on improving the antibacterial properties of dental implants, such as the construction of specific micro-nano surface texture, the introduction of diverse functional coatings, or the application of materials with intrinsic antibacterial properties. The aforementioned antibacterial surfaces can be incorporated with bioactive molecules, metallic nanoparticles, or other functional components to further enhance the osteogenic properties and accelerate the healing process. In this review, we summarize the recent developments in biomaterial science and the modification strategies applied to dental implants to inhibit biofilm formation and facilitate bone-implant integration. Furthermore, we summarized the obstacles existing in the process of laboratory research to reach the clinic products, and propose corresponding directions for future developments and research perspectives, so that to provide insights into the rational design and construction of dental implants with the aim to balance antibacterial efficacy, biological safety, and osteogenic property.

Abstract
Chitosan, a versatile biopolymer, has gained recognition in the discipline of dental implantology due to possessing salient properties. This comprehensive review explores the potential of chitosan in dental implants, focusing on its biocompatibility, bioactivity, and the various chitosan-based materials that have been utilized for dental implant therapy. The review also highlights the importance of surface treatment in dental implants to enhance osseointegration and inhibit bacterial biofilm formation. Additionally, the chemical structure, properties, and sources of chitosan are described, along with its different structural forms. The characteristics of chitosan particularly color, molecular weight, viscosity, and degree of deacetylation are discussed about their influence on its applications. This review provides valuable insights into the promising utilization of polymeric chitosan in enhancing the success and functionality of dental implants. This study highlights the potential applications of chitosan in oral implantology. Chitosan possesses various advantageous properties, including muco-adhesiveness, hemostatic action, biocompatibility, biodegradability, bioactivity, and antibacterial and antifungal activities, which enhance its uses in dental implantology. However, it has limited aqueous solubility at the physiological pH, which sometimes restricts its biological application, but this problem can be overcome by using modified chitosan or chitosan derivatives, which have also shown encouraging results. Recent research suggests that chitosan may act as a promising material for coating titanium-based implants, improving osteointegration together with antibacterial properties.

Abstract
Chitosan (Ch) is a naturally occurring biocompatible and bio-degradable material with high corrosion protective capacities for metals in various corrosive media. Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a significant biodegradable and bioactive material. In the present work, chitosan-hydroxyapatite (Ch-HA) composite coatings with various concentrations of chitosan were made on 316L stainless steel (316L SS) using sol-gel dip coating technique. The coatings were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), FTIR, SEM, and electrochemical measurements. The surface morphology results (SEM) of coated implants exposed the fairly dense microstructures having uniformity without cracks and pores indicating that coating was successfully deposited. From electrochemical analyses, it was observed that the value of corrosion current density and the corrosion rate decreased from 6.03 to 0.15 and 5.56-0.13 respectively indicating that 1.5gCh-HA is the best coating concentration. The electrochemical results demonstrated an improvement in the corrosion resistance of 316L SS than the bare one. The decrease in slope and loop area of cyclic voltammograms reveals about improvement in corrosion resistance. This increment in corrosion resistance of the Ch-HA coated SS implant in the artificial saliva is as 1.5gCh-HA > 2gCh-HA >1gCh-HA >0.5gCh-HA. Furthermore, Ch-HA coatings revealed appropriate adhesion with 316L SS substrate for its use in dental implants.
