Abstract
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has become an alternative material for orthopaedics and dental implants. However, bio-inertness is an important limitation in this material. In the present study, a hydroxyapatite (HA)–titanium nitride (TiN) coating was fabricated via pulsed DC magnetron sputtering and treated with hydrothermal treatment to improve the bioactive property of PEEK. The dissolution behavior of the coating was studied in simulated body fluid solution (SBF) at 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 56 days. The coating surface was analyzed before and after the immersion process by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscope (AFM), and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The calcium and phosphorus concentration alteration in SBF was quantified by an inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES). Coating dissolution and the precipitation of calcium phosphate complex from SBF were observed as occurring suddenly and continuously throughout the immersion times. These processes resulted in an alteration in both physical and chemical coating properties. After 56 days, the coating remained on PEEK surfaces and the Ca/P ratio was 1.16. These results indicate that HA-TiN coating via pulsed DC magnetron sputtering followed by hydrothermal treatment improved the bioactivity of materials and provided a potential benefit to orthopedics and dental applications.

Abstract
Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2), magnesium fluoride (MgF2), and hydroxyapatite (HA) films on Mg are widely studied owing to their easy preparation and favorable corrosion protection. Nevertheless, the most suitable film with the best performance for biomedical applications between the three films remains unknown. Therefore, the performance of the three coatings from in vitro to in vivo must be systematically investigated. In this study, Mg(OH)2, MgF2, and HA films were fabricated on pure Mg. Electrochemical analysis and the hydrogen evolution test suggested that the HA film showed the best in vitro corrosion resistance, followed by MgF2 and Mg(OH)2 films. In vitro cell culture indicated that the extract of the MgF2-coated sample was most beneficial for the osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells and the vascularization of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), which might be ascribed to the existence of the F element in the film. The result of this subcutaneous implantation showed that the HA film exhibited the best in vivo corrosion resistance and induced the lightest inflammatory response. Femoral implantation data revealed that the HA film exhibited the best osseointegration. Furthermore, the major organs and blood indicators of all of the tested rats were normal in 8 weeks. In summary, though the in vitro biological performance of the MgF2 film was the best among the three films, the HA film showed the best in vivo performance, suggesting that it is a more promising modification method for orthopedic applications.

An In Vivo Study in Rat Femurs of Bioactive Silicate Coatings on Titanium Dental Implants. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9051290. [PMID: 32365687 PMCID: PMC7288333 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9051290] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2020] [Revised: 04/10/2020] [Accepted: 04/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Silica-based ceramics have been proposed for coating purposes to enhance dental and orthopedic titanium (Ti) implant bioactivity. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of sphene-based bioceramic (CaO.TiO2.SiO2) coatings on implant osseointegration in vivo. Sphene coatings were obtained from preceramic polymers and nano-sized active precursors and deposited by an automatic airbrush. Twenty customized Ti implants, ten sphene-coated and ten uncoated rough implants were implanted into the proximal femurs of ten Sprague-Dawley rats. Overall, cortical and cancellous bone-to-implant contact (BIC) were determined using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) at 14 and 28 days. Moreover, peri-implant bone healing was histologically and histomorphometrically evaluated. The white blood cell count in the synovial fluid of the knee joints, if present, was also assessed. No difference in the BIC values was observed between the sphene-coated and uncoated implants, overall and in the two bone compartments (p > 0.05). Delamination of the coating occurred in three cases. Consistently with micro-CT data, the histological evaluation revealed no differences between the two groups. In addition, no synovial fluid could be collected on the test side, thus confirming sphene biocompatibility. In conclusion, sphene coating was found to be a suitable material for biomedical applications. Further studies are needed to improve coating adhesion to the implants.

Abstract
PURPOSE To differentiate between the survival and success definitions of functional hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated implant prosthesis. METHODS A total of 248 implants (62 patients), 5-10 years in function, were evaluated. The implant distribution length was 8 mm (6.5%), 10 mm (29.4%), 13 mm (30.2%) and 15 mm (33.9%). The diameter was 3.25 mm (60.1%) and 4 mm (39.9%). Probing depth (PD), gingival index (GI), height of keratinized mucosa (KM) and recession (REC) were measured. Periapical radiographs were taken to estimate the amount of crestal bone resorption (BL), mesially and distally, with the aid of a millimetric-scaled magnifying glass (x 8). Only implants that fulfilled the success rate criteria were considered as successful. All other functional implants were assigned to the non-successful group. All functional implant prostheses were defined as survival ones. RESULTS The accumulative survival rate after 5 and 10 years was 94.4% and 92.8%, respectively. Accumulative success rates were 89.9% and 54%, respectively. Implants 13 and 15 mm in length (97.9% and 96.4%, respectively) had the highest survival rate, which was higher over implants 8 and 10 mm in length (75%, P<0.01 and 88.2%, respectively). The survival rate of 4 mm diameter implants compared with 3.25 mm was 96.5% and 90.3%, respectively (P=0.019). The average BL was 1.7, 0.92 and 2.79 mm for the survival, successful and non-successful defined implant groups. PD was 3.26, 2.79 and 4 mm and GI was 0.96, 0.75 and 1.57, respectively. These measurements were statistically different between implant groups. KM and REC measurements showed similar scoring for all groups. A correlation was shown between successful and non-successful implants on the score of GI and PD (P<0.001 in both). CONCLUSION A distinguishable observation between survival and success rate was noted particularly in long-term observations. Implant length and diameter have an influence on the survival rate. Clinical parameter scores expressed an influence on the defined implant status.

Abstract
In order to obtain early and good osteointegration after implantation of a titanium implant in the human body, the surface modified treatments using NaOH or H(2)O(2) etc. were reported. In this study, titanium was hydrothermally treated with CaCl(2) solutions at 200 degrees C for 24hr (CaCl(2)-HT). Scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation clearly showed apatite deposition on the surface of CaCl(2) HT treated titanium faster than other chemical treated titanium immersion in simulated body fluid. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis demonstrated that Ti--O--Ca bonding was formed on titanium surface by hydrothermal treatment with CaCl(2) solution. And it was revealed that thickness of TiO(2), which was known to play important roles for the formation of bone-like apatite, became approximately three times thicker than as-polished titanium. The amount of initial attached MC3T3-E1 cells on as-polished and NaOH, H(2)O(2) and this CaCl(2) HT treated titanium were almost the same values. After 5 days incubation, the growth rate of MC3T3-E1 cells on CaCl(2)-HT treated titanium was significantly higher than that on other chemical treated titanium. The hydrothermal treatment with 10-20 mmol/L CaCl(2) solution at 200 degrees C was an effective method for the fabrication of titanium implant with good bioactivity and osteoconductivity.

Abstract
Poor fixation of bone replacement implants, e.g. the artificial hip, in implantation sites with inferior bone quality and quantity may be overcome by the use of implants coated with a cultured living bone equivalent. In this study, we tested, respectively, amorphous carbonated apatite (CA)- and crystalline octacalcium phosphate (OCP)-coated discs for their use in bone tissue engineering. Subcultured rat bone marrow cells were seeded on the substrates and after 7 days of culture, the implants were subcutaneously implanted in nude mice for 4 weeks. After 7 days of culture, the cells had formed a continuous multi-layer that covered the entire surface of the substrates. The amount of cells was visually higher on the crystalline OCP-coated discs compared to the amorphous CA-coated discs. Furthermore, the amorphous CA-coated discs exhibited a visually higher amount of mineralized extracellular matrix compared to the crystalline OCP-coated discs. After 4 weeks of implantation, clear de novo bone formation was observed on all discs with cultured cells. The newly formed bone on the crystalline OCP-coated discs was more organized and revealed a significantly higher volume compared to the amorphous CA-coated discs. The percentage of bone contact with the discs was also significantly higher on the OCP-coated discs. Overall, the results suggest that a crystalline OCP coating is more suitable for bone tissue engineering than an amorphous CA coating.

Abstract
Titanium has been a successful implant material owing to its excellent strength to weight ratio, toughness, and bioinert oxide surface. Significant progress has been made on the improvement of titanium's bioactivity by coating its oxide surface with calcium phosphates and bioactive molecules. Here, we report on the coating of titanium with a poly(L-lysine)-calcium phosphate hybrid material with a nanoscale texture. This hybrid coating was grown by first nucleating seed crystals of calcium phosphate, directly on the Ti surface and then exposing this surface to solutions containing Ca(2+), PO(4)(3-), and poly(L-lysine). The resultant hybrid coating was characterized by electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. This material contained 14% by weight poly(L-lysine), and this organic component decreased greatly the dimensions of the surface features, thus enhancing surface area relative to the inorganic control. The highly textured hybrid material was more susceptible than the control to acidic and enzymatic degradation. The amino acid cysteine was covalently linked to the hybrid material, demonstrating the potential of this coating for further functionalization. These hybrid coatings may prove useful in enhancing the bioactivity of titanium.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Reduced bone height frequently presents a challenge for implant-assisted tooth replacement in partially edentulous patients. PURPOSE This retrospective study evaluated the success rate of short, wide hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated implants placed in mandibular and maxillary molar areas with reduced bone height. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 168 HA-coated implants (6-mm diameter x 8-mm length) were placed in 167 patients in a private-practice setting. A minimal 6-mm workable ridge height and 8-mm ridge width was available in all situations. Patients were referred back to 1 of 7 referring restorative dentists for restoration of the implants. No attempt was made to standardize the restoration of the implants except to avoid working and nonworking contacts in lateral excursions. Implant success was evaluated according to the following criteria: (1) absence of complaints, (2) absence of recurring peri-implant infection or suppuration, (3) absence of perceptible implant mobility, and (4) absence of radiolucencies at implant-bone junction. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics. RESULTS Fifty-four (32.1%), 35 (20.8%), 36 (21.4%), and 42 (25.0%) implants replaced maxillary first and second and mandibular first and second molars, respectively. There were 128 implant-supported single crowns. Thirty-eight implants served as abutments for fixed partial dentures connected to other implants of various sizes. Two implants were involved in cantilevered fixed partial dentures. Patients were followed for up to 68 months (mean=34.9 months) after loading of implants. The overall cumulative success rate was found to be 100%. CONCLUSIONS For residual ridges with minimal height but adequate width, the use of short, wide HA-coated implants may offer a simple and predictable treatment alternative in posterior areas.

Abstract
Biomimetic calcium phosphate (Ca-P) coatings were applied onto dense titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) and porous tantalum (Ta) cylinders by immersion into simulated body fluid at 37 degrees C and then at 50 degrees C for 24 h. As a result, a homogeneous bone-like carbonated apatitic (BCA) coating, 30 microm thick was deposited on the entire surface of the dense and porous implants. Noncoated and BCA-coated implants were press-fit implanted in the femoral diaphysis of 14 adult female goats. Bone contact was measured after implantation for 6, 12, and 24 weeks, and investigated by histology and backscattered electron microscopy (BSEM). After 6 weeks, bone contact of the BCA-coated Ti6Al4V implants was about 50%. After 12 and 24 weeks, bone contact was lower in comparison with the 6-week implantations at, respectively 24 and 39%. Regarding the BCA-coated porous Ta implants, bone contacts were 17, 30, and 18% after 6, 12, and 24 weeks, respectively. However, bone contact was always found significantly higher for BCA-coated dense Ti6Al4V and porous Ta cylinders than the corresponding noncoated implants. The results of this study show that the BCA coating enhances the bone integration as compared to the noncoated implants.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate (Ca-P) coatings have been applied onto titanium alloys prosthesis to combine the srength of metals with the bioactivity of Ca-P. It has been clearly shown in many publications that Ca-P coating accelerates bone formation around the implant. However, longevity of the Ca-P coating for an optimal bone apposition onto the prosthesis remains controversial. Biomimetic bone-like carbonate apatite (BCA) and Octacalcium Phosphate (OCP) coatings were deposited on Ti6Al4V samples to evaluate their in vitro and in vivo dissolution properties. The coated plates were soaked in alpha-MEM for 1, 2, and 4 weeks, and they were analyzed by Back Scattering Electron Microscopy (BSEM) and by Fourier Transform Infra Red spectroscopy (FTIR). Identical coated plates were implanted subcutaneously in Wistar rats for similar periods. BSEM, FTIR, and histomorphometry were performed on the explants. In vitro and in vivo, a carbonate apatite (CA) formed onto OCP and BCA coatings via a dissolution-precipitation process. In vitro, both coatings dissolved overtime, whereas in vivo BCA calcified and OCP partially dissolved after 1 week. Thereafter, OCP remained stable. This different in vivo behavior can be attributed to (1) different organic compounds that might prevent or enhance Ca-P dissolution, (2) a greater reactivity of OCP due to its large open structure, or (3) different thermodynamic stability between OCP and BCA phases. These structural and compositional differences promote either the progressive loss or calcification of the Ca-P coating and might lead to different osseointegration of coated implants.

Abstract
Porous compacts with both biological and biomechanical compatibilities and high strength were developed. Spherical powders of Ti-6Al-4V alloy, which were either as received or surface modified with the use of calcium ions by hydrothermal treatment (HTT), were fabricated by a spark plasma sintering process. The porous compacts of pure Ti were used as reference materials. Porosity was approximately 30%, and compressive strengths were 113 and 125 MPa for the as-received Ti alloy powders and those modified by the HTT process, respectively. The bending strength and elastic modulus of as-received Ti alloy powders were 128-178 MPa and 16-18 GPa, respectively. Each of the compacts was immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF). The amount of adsorption/precipitation of calcium phosphate through the compacts was measured by weight change and was observed by SEM. The compacts were covered with calcium phosphate after 2 weeks of immersion in SBF. The compacts of Ti alloy had plenty of precipitated apatite crystals, and modification by HTT accumulated more precipitation. Because calcium phosphate is a mineral component of bone, apatite, which is precipitated on the surface of the compacts, could adsorb proteins and/or drugs such as antibiotics. It is expected that a large amount of proteins and/or drugs could be impregnated when the porous compacts developed are used.

Abstract
This clinical report describes the microscopic analysis of a threaded hydroxyapatite-coated root-form implant retrieved from an 89-year-old subject after 10 months of service. The implant was never loaded and was removed because it was nonrestorable. Clinically, the buccal area of the implant was covered by soft tissue, whereas the palatal side was covered by bone. Light microscopic evaluation revealed tight contact between hydroxyapatite and bone with no sign of coating dissolution. Osteocytes were present, and Haversian canals were in close proximity to the implant surface. The buccal side of the implant demonstrated mild to moderate inflammatory infiltrate and signs of hydroxyapatite coating dissolution. These observations suggest that hydroxyapatite coatings can resist degradation in contact with bone but may be more prone to dissolution in contact with soft tissue.

Abstract
This study represents the first report of the physical and chemical changes occurring in coatings of failed hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated titanium implants obtained from a comprehensive, multicenter human dental implant study. A total of 53 retrieved samples were obtained and compared with unimplanted controls with the same manufacturer and similar manufacture dates. Forty-five retrieved implants were examined for surface characteristics and bulk composition. Implants were staged based on implantation history: stage 1 (implants retrieved between surgical placement and surgical uncovering), stage 2 (implants retrieved at surgical uncovering and evaluation), stage 3 (implants retrieved between surgical uncovering evaluation and occlusal loading), and stage 4 (implants retrieved after occlusal loading). Scanning electron microscopy showed progressive coating thinning with implantation time. At later stages, bare Ti metal was detected by energy-dispersive X-ray analysis and electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis. Increases in Ti and Al (2-7.5 atm % each) were detected at the apical ends of all stage 4 samples. In unimplanted coatings, X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated the presence of amorphous calcium phosphate, beta-tricalcium phosphate, tetracalcium phosphate, and calcium oxide in addition to large hydroxyapatite crystals (c axis size, D002 = 429 +/- 13 A; a axis size, D300 = 402 +/- 11 A, a/c aspect ratio 0.92). The nonapatitic phases disappeared with increased implantation time, although there was a persistence of amorphous calcium phosphate. Bulk coating chemical analysis showed that Ca/P ratios for implant controls (1.81 +/- 0.01) were greater than stoichiometric HA (1.67) and decreased for implant stages 3 and 4 (1.69 +/- 0.09 and 1.67 +/- 0.09, respectively), explained by the dissolution of the non apatitic phases. Crystal sizes also changed with implantation times, being smaller than the control at all but stage 4. Fourier transform infrared analyses agreed with these results, and also indicated the accumulation of bone (protein and carbonate-apatite) in the retrieved coatings. The accumulation of bone was not stage dependent. These findings indicate that there was some biointegration with the surrounding bone, but the greatest changes occurred with the HA coating materials, their loss, and chemical change.

Abstract
The stability of thermally processed hydroxyapatite coatings for oral and orthopedic bioprostheses has been questioned. Information on the chemical changes, which occur with hydroxyapatite biomaterials post-implantation in humans, is lacking. The purpose of this investigation was to begin to examine post-implantation surface changes of hydroxyapatite-coated implants using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray microanalysis (EDAX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and x-ray diffraction (XRD). Three retrieved dental implant specimens from humans following clinical failure due to peri-implantitis were examined. Unimplanted cylinders served as controls. Clinically, the retrieved specimens were all enveloped by a fibrous tissue capsule with bone present at the apical extent of the implant. SEM analysis showed that the retrieved surfaces were coated with both calcified and proteinaceous deposits. EDAX scans of the retrieved specimens demonstrated evidence of hydroxyapatite coating loss reflected by increasing titanium and aluminum signals. Other foreign ions such as sodium, chloride, sulfur, silica, and magnesium were detected. XRD of the control specimens showed that the samples were predominantly apatite; however, two peaks were detected in the diffraction pattern, which are not characteristic of hydroxyapatite, indicating that small amounts of one or more other crystalline phases were also present. The retrieved specimens showed slightly larger average crystal size relative to the control sample material, and the non-apatite lines were not present. FTIR evaluation of the retrieved specimens revealed the incorporation of carbonate and organic matrix on or into the hydroxyapatite. Narrowing of and increased detail in the phosphate peaks indicated an increase in average crystal size and/or perfection relative to the controls, as did the XRD results. Based on these results, we conclude that chemical changes may occur within the coating, with the incorporation of carbonate and concomitant reduction in hydroxyapatite coating thickness. Thermodynamic dissolution-reprecipitation of the coating itself and subsequent surface insult by bacterial and local inflammatory components may be involved with these changes.

Abstract
There are many controversies about the long-term prognosis of hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated implants. Failure may be related to compositional and structural changes of the coating occurring during implantation. Two retrieved and two unused HA-coated blade-type implants were examined by stereomicroscopy, secondary electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and electron probe microanalysis. The objective was to investigate the HA morphology, composition, and structure, and to characterize the changes that occurred in the retrieved implant coatings. Retrieved implants presented partial loss of the coating, especially at the apical and mesiodistal edges. Remaining HA was thick and flattened in the cervical and central areas and gradually thinner and rougher towards the apical and mesiodistal edges. Increase of Cl and Mg, decrease of OH, and X-ray diffraction peak broadening were found in the retrieved implant coatings, in comparison with the unused implants. Morphological changes of the retrieved implants seem to depend on stress values in the surrounding bone and on implant mobility. Compositional changes and increased amount of lattice imperfections appeared in the retrieved implant coatings, as a result of ion substitutions in the apatite lattice. However, the present study could not confirm the influence of these changes on implant failure.

Abstract
The dissolution behavior of hydroxyapatite (HA) in the presence and absence of protein needs to be investigated in order to fully understand the initial cellular response to HA surfaces. In this study, HA coatings were characterized using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) prior to protein study. Fibronectin and albumin adsorption study were also performed. Calcium and phosphorus released in the presence and absence of albumin were measured. pH of the solution was measured daily. From the materials characterization, it was observed that the coatings exhibit a HA-type structure, with traces of sodium on the surface. FTIR indicated the possible presence of carbonates on the coatings. From the adsorption study, the amount of albumin adsorbed (0.052+/-0.005 microg/mm2) was statistically higher than the amount of fibronectin adsorbed on HA surfaces (0.035+/-0.002 microg/mm2). Flame atomic absorption indicated a significantly higher calcium ions released initially for HA coatings incubated with proteins as compared to coatings in the absence of proteins. However, after 7 days incubation, no significant difference in calcium ions release was observed between the HA coatings in the presence and absence of proteins. Phosphorus dissolution on HA coatings was not significantly affected by the presence of proteins. Thus, it was suggested from this study that the initial dissolution properties of calcium ions from HA coatings was dependent on the media.

Abstract
PURPOSE The level of crystallinity in hydroxyapatite (HA) is thought to be responsible for its degradation in the physiologic milieu. The purpose of this study was to compare the in vivo bony response to HA coatings of varying levels of crystallinity and determine the optimum composition for promoting osseointegration. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cylindrical implants of sand-blasted CP titanium and HA-coated titanium of 50% (low), 70% (medium), and 90% (high) crystallinity were inserted into the canine femur for 1, 4, 12, and 26 weeks. Morphometric analysis of undecalcified sections determined the percentage of bone contact with the implant surface. A pullout test was used to measure the interfacial attachment strength of the bone-implant interface. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) examination of the implant surface aided in identifying the failure mode. Coating thickness was measured under light microscopy to determine whether degradation occurred. RESULTS No significant differences could be found in the percentage of bone contact and interfacial attachment strength between the three types of HA-coated implants throughout the four implantation periods. A significantly higher percentage of bone contact on HA-coated implants than on uncoated titanium implants was noted at 4 weeks. (ANOVA, P<.05). HA-coated implants were also found to have significantly higher interfacial attachment strength than titanium implants at 4, 12, and 26 weeks. Coating thickness decreased gradually with time. The most noticeable reduction was found on the low-crystallinity coatings during the first 4 weeks. Failure of the bone-coating-implant complex occurred mostly within the coating or near the coating-implant interface. CONCLUSIONS HA coatings on metal implants enhance osseointegration in the early stage of bone healing and provide strong bone-bonding capability, although titanium implants had about the same level of bone contact in the later stage of healing. Crystallinity of HA coatings has no significant influence over the bone formation capacity and the bone bonding strength. However, an HA coating of higher crystallinity is more desirable in providing durability and maintaining osteoconductive properties.
