[PMID: 36453151 PMCID: PMC9891915 DOI: 10.1111/os.13395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2021] [Revised: 06/04/2022] [Accepted: 06/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the potential effect of three allogenic bone substitute configurations on the viability, adhesion, and spreading of osteoblasts in vitro. METHODS Freeze-dried cortical bone were ground and fractions were divided into three groups with different sizes and shapes, defined as bone fiber (0.1 mm × 0.1 mm × 3 mm), bone powder (0.45-0.9 mm), and bone granule group (3-6 mm). MC3T3-E1 cells were divided and co-cultured within groups to induce cell adhesion. The configuration of allogenic bone was captured by scanning electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy, and substrate roughness values were quantified. Cell adhesion rate was assessed using the hemocyte counting method, cell viability was determined by CCK-8 assay and live/dead staining, and cell morphology was visualized by Phalloidin and DAPI, and the mRNA expression of adhesion-related gene (vinculin) of different substitutes were determined with quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS The roughness values of bone fiber, bone powder, and bone granule group were 1.878 μm (1.578-2.415 μm), 5.066 μm (3.891-6.162 μm), and 0.860 μm (0.801-1.452 μm), respectively (bone powder group compared with bone granule group, H = 18.015, P < 0.001). Similar OD values of all groups in CCK-8 assay indicated good biocompatibility of these substitutes (bone fiber, 0.201 ± 0.004; bone powder, 0.206 ± 0.008; bone granule group, 0.197 ± 0.006; and the control group, 0.202 ± 0.016, F = 0.7152, P > 0.05). In addition, representative cell adhesion rates at 24 h showed significantly lower cell adhesion rate in bone fiber group (20.3 ± 1.6%) compared to bone powder (29.3 ± 4.4%) and bone granule group (27.3 ± 3.2%) (F = 10.51,P = 0.009 and P = 0.034, respectively), but there was no significant difference between the latter two groups (P > 0.05). Interestingly, the expression of vinculin mRNA steadily decreased in a time-dependent manner. The vinculin expression reached its peak at 6 h in each group, and the vinculin levels in bone fiber, bone powder, and bone granule group were 2.119 ± 0.052, 3.842 ± 0.108, and 3.585 ± 0.068 times higher than those in the control group, respectively (F = 733.643, all P < 0.001). Meanwhile, there was a significant difference in the expression of target gene between bone powder and bone granule group (P = 0.006). CONCLUSION All allogenic bone substitutes presented an excellent cell viability. Moreover, bone powder and bone granule group were more likely to promote cell adhesion and spreading compared to bone fiber group.

A Comparison of the Effects of Ultrasonic Cavitation on the Surfaces of 45 and 40Kh Steels. METALS 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/met12010138] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
The ultrasonic treatment of metal products in liquid is used mainly to remove various kinds of contaminants from surfaces. The effects of ultrasound not only separate and remove contaminants, they also significantly impact the physical–mechanical and geometric properties of the surfaces of products if there is enough time for treatment. The aim of this study was to compare the dynamics of ultrasonic cavitation effects on the surface properties of 45 (ASTM M1044; DIN C45; GB 45) and 40Kh (AISI 5140; DIN 41Cr4; GB 40Cr) structural steels. During the study, changes in the structure, roughness, sub-roughness, and microhardness values of these materials were observed. The results showed significant changes in the considered characteristics. It was found that the process of cavitation erosion involves at least 3 stages. In the first stage, the geometric properties of the surface slightly change with the accumulation of internal stresses and an increase in microhardness. The second stage is characterized by structure refinement, increased roughness and sub-microroughness, and the development of surface erosion. In the third stage, when a certain limiting state is reached, there are no noticeable changes in the surface properties. The lengths of these stages and the quantitative characteristics of erosion for the considered materials differ significantly. It was found that the time required to reach the limiting state was longer for carbon steel than for alloy steel. The results can be used to improve the cleaning process, as well as to form the required surface properties of structural steels.

Abstract
Progress of modern dentistry is accelerating at a spectacular speed in the scientific, technological and clinical areas. Practical examples are the advancement in the digital field, which has guaranteed an average level of prosthetic practices for all patients, as well as other scientific developments, including research on stem cell biology. Given their plasticity, defined as the ability to differentiate into specific cell lineages with a capacity of almost unlimited self-renewal and release of trophic/immunomodulatory factors, stem cells have gained significant scientific and commercial interest in the last 15 years. Stem cells that can be isolated from various tissues of the oral cavity have emerged as attractive sources for bone and dental regeneration, mainly due to their ease of accessibility. This review will present the current understanding of emerging conceptual and technological issues of the use of stem cells to treat bone and dental loss defects. In particular, we will focus on the clinical application of stem cells, either directly isolated from oral sources or in vitro reprogrammed from somatic cells (induced pluripotent stem cells). Research aimed at further unraveling stem cell plasticity will allow to identify optimal stem cell sources and characteristics, to develop novel regenerative tools in dentistry.

Abstract
Background To assess the changes of implant surfaces of different roughness after instrumentation with ultrasonic-driven scaler tips of different materials. Methods Experiments were performed on two moderately rough surfaces (I—Inicell® and II—SLA®), one surface without pre-treatment (III) and one smooth machined surface (IV). Scaler tips made of steel (A), PEEK (B), titanium (C), carbon (D) and resin (E) were used for instrumentation with a standardized pressure of 100 g for ten seconds and under continuous automatic motion. Each combination of scaler tip and implant surface was performed three times on 8 titanium discs. After instrumentation roughness was assessed by profilometry, morphological changes were assessed by scanning electron microscopy, and element distribution on the utmost surface by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Results The surface roughness of discs I and II were significantly reduced by instrumentation with all tips except E. For disc III and IV roughness was enhanced by tip A and C and, only for IV, by tip D. Instrumentation with tips B, D and E left extensive residuals on surface I, II and III. The element analysis of these deposits proved consistent with the elemental composition of the respective tip materials. Conclusion All ultrasonic instruments led to microscopic alterations of all types of implants surfaces assessed in the present study. The least change of implant surfaces might result from resin or carbon tips on machined surfaces.

Abstract
AbstractContamination of titanium dental implants may lead to implant failure. There are two major types of contaminants: the inorganic and organic contaminants. The inorganic contaminants mostly consist of elements such as calcium, phosphorus, chlorine, sulphur, sodium, silicon, fluorine and some organic carbons. Whereas organic contaminants consist of hydrocarbon, carboxylates, salts of organic acids, nitrogen from ammonium and bacterial cells/byproducts. Contaminants can alter the surface energy, chemical purity, thickness and composition of the oxide layer, however, we lack clinical evidence that contaminations have any effect at all. However, surface cleanliness seems to be essential for implant osseointegration.These contaminants may cause dental implants to fail in its function to restore missing teeth and also cause a financial burden to the patient and the health care services to invest in decontamination methods. Therefore, it is important to discuss the aetiology of dental implant failures. In this narrative review, we discuss two major types of contaminants: the inorganic and organic contaminants including bacterial contaminants. This review also aims to discuss the potential effect of contamination on Ti dental implants.

Effect of bisphosphonate treatment of titanium surfaces on alkaline phosphatase activity in osteoblasts: a systematic review and meta-analysis. BMC Oral Health 2020; 20:125. [PMID: 32334598 PMCID: PMC7183598 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-020-01089-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2019] [Accepted: 03/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bisphosphonate coating of dental implants is a promising tool for surface modification aiming to improve the osseointegration process and clinical outcome. The biological effects of bisphosphonates are thought to be mainly associated with osteoclasts inhibition, whereas their effects on osteoblast function are unclear. A potential of bisphosphonate coated surfaces to stimulate osteoblast differentiation was investigated by several in vitro studies with contradictory results. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the effect of bisphosphonate coated implant surfaces on alkaline phosphatase activity in osteoblasts. METHODS In vitro studies that assessed alkaline phosphatase activity in osteoblasts following cell culture on bisphosphonate coated titanium surfaces were searched in electronic databases PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus and ISI Web of Science. Animal studies and clinical trials were excluded. The literature search was restricted to articles written in English and published up to August 2019. Publication bias was assessed by the construction of funnel plots. RESULTS Eleven studies met the inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis showed that coating of titanium surfaces with bisphosphonates increases alkaline phosphatase activity in osteoblasts after 3 days (n = 1), 7 (n = 7), 14 (n = 6) and 21 (n = 3) days. (7 days beta coefficient = 1.363, p-value = 0.001; 14 days beta coefficient = 1.325, p-value < 0.001; 21 days beta coefficient = 1.152, p-value = 0.159). CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis suggests that bisphosphonate coatings of titanium implant surfaces may have beneficial effects on osteogenic behaviour of osteoblasts grown on titanium surfaces in vitro. Further studies are required to assess to which extent bisphosphonates coating might improve osseointegration in clinical situations.

Antibacterial Activity and Impact of Different Antiseptics on Biofilm-Contaminated Implant Surfaces. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2019.

Abstract
Several antiseptic agents have been proposed for the treatment of peri-implantitis as a complementary therapeutic strategy in addition to mechanical devices. The aim of this study was to compare six different antiseptics, as well as alternative formulations of the same chemical agent, with respect to their decontamination efficacy and impact on chemical properties of the implant surface. Titanium disks with a micro-rough surface, previously contaminated with Porphyromonas gingivalis and Streptococcus mutans biofilms, were treated for 2 min with different antiseptics (liquid sodium hypochlorite 5.25%, gel sodium hypochlorite 5.25%, liquid chlorhexidine 0.2%, gel chlorhexidine 1%, gel citric acid 40%, and gel orthophosphoric acid 37%) or sterile saline solution (control) and their antibacterial activity as well as their ability to remove biofilm were assessed by viable bacterial count and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. Spectroscopic analysis was also performed on non-contaminated disks after exposure to the antiseptics, in order to detect any change in the elemental composition of the titanium surface. All the antimicrobial formulations examined were effective against P. gingivalis and S. mutans biofilms. SEM analysis revealed however that liquid sodium hypochlorite 5.25% was more effective in dissolving biofilm residues. Spectroscopic analysis detected traces of the antiseptics, probably due to insufficient rinsing of the titanium surfaces. In conclusion, since gel formulations of these antiseptic agents possessed a similar antibacterial activity to the liquid formulations, these may be proposed as alternative treatments given their properties to avoid overflows and increase contact time without significant side effects on the bone.

Abstract
Slow appositional growth of bone in vivo is a major problem associated with polyether ether ketone (PEEK) based orthopaedic implants. Early stage promotion of osteoblast activity, particularly bone nodule formation, would help to improve contact between PEEK implantable materials and the surrounding bone tissue. To improve interactions with bone cells, we explored here the use of plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) treatment of PEEK to covalently immobilize biomolecules to the surface. In this study, a single step process was used to covalently immobilize tropoelastin on the surface of PIII modified PEEK through reactions with radicals generated by the treatment. Improved bioactivity was observed using the human osteoblast-like cell line, SAOS-2. Cells on surfaces that were PIII-treated or tropoelastin-coated exhibited improved attachment, spreading, proliferation, and bone nodule formation compared to cells on untreated samples. Surfaces that were both PIII-treated and tropoelastin-coated triggered the most favorable osteoblast-like responses. Surface treatment or tropoelastin coating did not alter alkaline phosphatase gene expression and activity of bound cells but did influence the expression of other bone markers including osteocalcin, osteonectin, and collagen I. We conclude that the surface modification of PEEK improves osteoblast interactions, particularly with respect to bone apposition, and enhances the orthopedic utility of PEEK.
