Abstract
Low level laser treatment (LLLT) is known for its photobiostimulatory and photobiomodulatory characteristics, which stimulate cell proliferation, increase cellular metabolism, and improve cellular regeneration. The objective of the present research was to assess the possible influence of infrared diode laser irradiation on the behaviour, attachment, and osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) seeded on different types of dental implants. Two distinct types of implants, one subjected to laser surface treatment and the other treated with acid etching, were longitudinally divided into two halves and submerged in six wells culture plates. Both implants were subjected to infrared diode laser treatment, and subsequently, the morphology and attachment of cells were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) after 14 and 21 days. The behaviour of (hPDLSCs) towards two types of implants, when exposed to osteogenic medium and low-level laser therapy (LLLT), was assessed using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction to measure the expression of stemness markers and osteogenic markers. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) demonstrated that the application of infrared diode laser irradiation substantially improved the attachment of cells to both types of implants. The stemness gene markers were significantly down regulated in cells seeded on both surfaces when challenged with osteogenic media in relation to control. At 14 days, early osteogenic markers, were upregulated, while late osteogenic markers, were downregulated in both challenged groups. At the 21-day mark, hPDLSCs seeded on an acid-etched implant exhibited increased expression of all osteogenic markers in response to stimulation with osteogenic media and infra-red diode laser, in contrast to hPDLSCs seeded on a laser surface treated implant under the same conditions. Finally, the findings of our research revealed that when subjected to infrared diode laser, human periodontal ligament stem cells cultured on both types of implants demonstrated improved cellular attachment and differentiation. This suggested that infrared diode laser enhanced the activity of the cells surrounding the implants. Hence, the use of infrared diode laser could be pivotal in improving and expediting the clinical osseointegration process around dental implants.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the response of peri-implant bone to smooth (machined) surface and surface-modified dental implants in healthy experimental animal models. Materials and Methods Systematic electronic search was done for using PUBMED, SCOPUS, WEB OF SCIENCE, and EMBASE databases for potentially relevant records from the last 20 years. Duplicate screening and data extraction were performed to formulate the evidence tables and meta-analysis following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. The outcome criteria were: 1. Bone Implant Contact (BIC) in percentage, 2. Removal Torque Values (RTV) in Ncm, 3. Implant stability Quotient (ISQ), Quality assessment was done using the ARRIVE (Animal Research: Reporting of In Vivo Experiments) guidelines and SYRCLE RoB (Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory Animal Experimentation Risk of Bias) tool. Results Results were expressed as pooled mean difference for the respective groups viz. sandblasted and acid etched, laser modified, acid etched and anodized surface. The surface modified implants revealed somewhat higher BIC over machined surface (P < 0.01). Forest plot were drawn for all the outcome variables. Conclusions Within the limitations of this study, the authors found a higher degree of osseointegration pertaining to bone to implant interface, RTV, and implant stability quotient (ISQ) with surface modified procedures which seemed to promote bone formation around peri-implant tissue during the early stages of healing. After analyzing all 37 included publications for the outcome of interest (BIC%, RTV, ISQ), a positive outcome was obtained for both subtractive and additive implant surface modifying procedures over machined implant surfaces when the data were pooled together. More advanced research work on healthy animal models needs to be investigated to review the impact of surface modifications on dental implant osseointegration.

[PMID: 38028874 PMCID: PMC10658112 DOI: 10.34172/jlms.2023.38] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023]
Abstract
Introduction: Several techniques have been used to modify the surface of commercially pure titanium (CPTi) implants to improve osseointegration using lasers, sandblasts, sandblasts with acid etching, and other modalities. For implant-osseointegration, surface features like chemical composition of a surface, topography, and surface energy are essential. The present comparative study aimed to compare the impact of Er,Cr:YSGG laser, sandblasting, and acid etching implant surface modifications on the surface topography, roughness, and element chemical composition of the Ti dental implant. Methods: Thirty CPTi dental implants were divided into three groups according to the surface modification (n=10 for each group): Group A: Sandblasting with acid etching (SLActive), group B: Sandblasting, and group C: Er,Cr:YSGG laser surface modifications. The modified surfaces were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), profilometer, and energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (EDS). Results: One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that there were significant differences in the mean values of average roughness (Ra) of the three groups (P<0.05). Tukey's post hoc test showed that the average roughness (Ra) of laser-surface modification (group C) of the implant had the highest mean value (2.30 µm) among the different groups, while sandblasted surface modification (group B) of the implant had the lowest mean value (1.39 µm). The SLActive (group A) sandblast with acid etching had a mean value of 1.63 µm. SEM analysis showed that significantly modified surface topographies and different element concentrations were found within all modified groups. Conclusion: The Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation increased the implant surface roughness value after implant surface modification, compared to sandblasts and sandblasts with acid etching application. The observations for the SEM-EDS analysis revealed several elements with different concentrations, which were affected by the physical-chemical characteristics of the surface modification techniques. The SEM analysis showed a significant modification in implant surface topographies of the tested groups.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the surface characteristics and evaluate the bone-implant interfaces of injection molded zirconia implants with or without surface treatment and compare them with those of conventional titanium implants. Four different zirconia and titanium implant groups (n = 14 for each group) were prepared: injection-molded zirconia implants without surface treatment (IM ZrO2); injection-molded zirconia implants with surface treatment via sandblasting (IM ZrO2-S); turned titanium implants (Ti-turned); and titanium implants with surface treatments via sandblasting with large-grit particles and acid-etching (Ti-SLA). Scanning electron microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy were used to assess the surface characteristics of the implant specimens. Eight rabbits were used, and four implants from each group were placed into the tibiae of each rabbit. Bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and bone area (BA) were measured to evaluate the bone response after 10-day and 28-day healing periods. One-way analysis of variance with Tukey's pairwise comparison was used to find any significant differences. The significance level was set at α = 0.05. Surface physical analysis showed that Ti-SLA had the highest surface roughness, followed by IM ZrO2-S, IM ZrO2, and Ti-turned. There were no statistically significant differences (p > 0.05) in BIC and BA among the different groups according to the histomorphometric analysis. This study suggests that injection-molded zirconia implants are reliable and predictable alternatives to titanium implants for future clinical applications.

Abstract
Innovation in the healthcare profession to solve complex human problems has always been emulated and based on solutions proven by nature. The conception of different biomimetic materials has allowed for extensive research that spans several fields, including biomechanics, material sciences, and microbiology. Due to the atypical characteristics of these biomaterials, dentistry can benefit from these applications in tissue engineering, regeneration, and replacement. This review highlights an overview of the application of different biomimetic biomaterials in dentistry and discusses the key biomaterials (hydroxyapatite, collagen, polymers) and biomimetic approaches (3D scaffolds, guided bone and tissue regeneration, bioadhesive gels) that have been researched to treat periodontal and peri-implant diseases in both natural dentition and dental implants. Following this, we focus on the recent novel application of mussel adhesive proteins (MAPs) and their appealing adhesive properties, in addition to their key chemical and structural properties that relate to the engineering, regeneration, and replacement of important anatomical structures in the periodontium, such as the periodontal ligament (PDL). We also outline the potential challenges in employing MAPs as a biomimetic biomaterial in dentistry based on the current evidence in the literature. This provides insight into the possible increased functional longevity of natural dentition that can be translated to implant dentistry in the near future. These strategies, paired with 3D printing and its clinical application in natural dentition and implant dentistry, develop the potential of a biomimetic approach to overcoming clinical problems in dentistry.

Abstract
Titanium-copper (Ti-Cu) alloy is an advanced antibacterial material with excellent mechanical properties, thermodynamic stability, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Sandblasting and acid-etching was applied to the Ti-3Cu alloy to construct a rough surface with Ti2Cu phase on the surface in order to improve the antibacterial properties and the osseointegration. The phase constitutes and the physical properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM), and the surface chemical properties were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electrochemical testing. The antibacterial property was assessed by the plate-count method and the cell compatibility was evaluated by the CCK-8 test in order to reveal the effect of surface characteristics on the antibacterial ability and bioactivity. The results demonstrated a rough and lamellar surface structure with many submicron Ti2Cu particles on the surface of Ti-3Cu, which could enhance the antibacterial ability and promote the cell proliferation and the initial adhesion of osteoblasts. However, the surface treatment also reduced the corrosion resistance and accelerated the Cu ion release.

Abstract
Background: The increased use of dental implants in oral rehabilitation has been followed by the development of new biomaterials as well as improvements in the performance of biomaterials already in use. This triggers the need for appropriate analytical approaches to assess the biological and, ultimately, clinical benefits of these approaches. Aims: To address the role of physical, chemical, mechanical, and biological characteristics in order to determine the critical parameters to improve biological responses and the long-term effectiveness of dental implant surfaces. Data sources and methods: Web of Science, MEDLINE and Lilacs databases were searched for the last 30 years in English, Spanish and Portuguese idioms. Results: Chemical composition, wettability, roughness, and topography of dental implant surfaces have all been linked to biological regulation in cell interactions, osseointegration, bone tissue and peri-implant mucosa preservation. Conclusion: Techniques involving subtractive and additive methods, especially those involving laser treatment or embedding of bioactive nanoparticles, have demonstrated promising results. However, the literature is heterogeneous regarding study design and methodology, which limits comparisons between studies and the definition of the critical determinants of optimal cell response.

Abstract
Peri-implantitis is one of the most common complications after dental implant placement. Researchers have demonstrated that the peri-implantitis tends to occur around dental implants with a rough surface rather than those with a smooth surface. We aimed to investigate the ability of a smooth titanium (Ti) surface containing strontium (Sr) to enhance bone formation as a result of strontium's capacity to support osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. A thin titanium oxide film was formed on an as-mirror polished Ti surface by dipping in 5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) solution for 24 h, followed by thermal treatment at 350°C. The Ti surface was then treated with 1% strontium nitrate (Sr(NO3)2) solution and turned in spin coater. The surface morphology, chemical composition, and release of strontium ions (Sr2+) were evaluated. The results demonstrate that strontium in the form of Sr2+ was successfully doped into the titanium dioxide (TiO2) film by this simple chemical treatment.

Abstract
Artificial prostheses for joint replacement are indispensable in orthopedic surgery. Unfortunately, the implanted surface is attractive to not only host cells but also bacteria. To enable better osteointegration, a mechanically stable porous structure was created on a titanium surface using laser treatment and metallic silver particles were embedded in a hydrophilic titanium oxide layer on top. The laser structuring resulted in unique amphora-shaped pores. Due to their hydrophilic surface conditions and capillary forces, the pores can be loaded preoperative with the antibiotic of choice/need, such as gentamicin. Cytotoxicity and differentiation assays with primary human osteoblast-like cells revealed no negative effect of the surface modification with or without gentamicin loading. An in vivo biocompatibility study showed significantly enhanced osteointegration as measured by push-out testing and histomorphometry 56 days after the implantation of the K-wires into rat femora. Using a S. aureus infection model, the porous, silver-coated K-wires slightly reduced the signs of bone destruction, while the wires were still colonized after 28 days. Loading the amphora-shaped pores with gentamicin significantly reduced the histopathological signs of bone destruction and no bacteria were detected on the wires. Taken together, this novel surface modification can be applied to new or established orthopedic implants. It enables preoperative loading with the antibiotic of choice/need without further equipment or post-coating, and supports osteointegration without a negative effect of the released dug, such as gentamicin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evaluation of the in vivo bone response of two innovative titanium surfaces ytterbium laser active fiber obtained (L1-L2) compared to a sandblasted and acid etched (SBAE) during early phase of osseointegration. MATERIAL AND METHODS Three implant groups with the same macroscopic features were obtained (L1-L2-SBAE) to promote specific surface characteristics. Scanning electron microscopy, profilometric evaluation, X-ray spectrometry, and diffraction analysis were performed. For each group, six implants were placed in the tibiae of three Peli Buey sheep, and histologic, histomorphometric analysis, bone to implant contact (BIC), and the Dynamic Osseointegration index (DOI) were performed. RESULTS During the early phases of osseointegration, the histological and histomorphometric results showed significant differences between L1-L2-SBAE implants. At 15 and 30 days, histological analysis detected a newly bone formation around all specimens with an higher vital bone in L2 compared to L1 and SBAE both in cortical and in poor-quality marrow bone. At same time, histomorphometric analysis showed significantly higher BIC values in L2 (42.1 ± 2.6 and 82.4 ± 2.2) compared to L1 (5.2 ± 3.1 and 56.2 ± 1.3) and SBAE (23.3 ± 3.9 and 77.3 ± 0.4). DOI medium value showed a higher rate in L2 (2.83) compared to SBAE (2.60) and L1 (1.91). CONCLUSIONS With the limitations of this pilot study, it is possible to assess that the titanium surface characteristics, and not the technologies used to obtain the modification, played a crucial role during the osseointegration process. Histological, histomorphometric, BIC, and DOI evaluation showed a significantly higher rate in L2 specimens compared to others, confirming that the implant surface could increase the bone response in cortical or marrow poor quality bone during the initial phases of osseointegration.

MATERIALS AND METHODS Twelve skeletally mature female sheep were used in the study along with 144 plateau-root-form healing chamber titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) implants (Bicon LLC, Boston, MA), evenly distributed between narrow (3.5 mm) and wide (6.0 mm) diameters. The presence or the absence of irrigation, different drilling speeds, and 2 time points quantifying bone-implant contact (BIC) and bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO) to evaluate the osteogenic parameters around the implants. RESULTS There were no signs of inflammation, infection, or failure of the implants observed at either healing period. The narrow 3.5-mm implant, at 6 weeks, yielded significant differences in terms of BIC at a drilling speed of 50 rotations per minute (RPM), with higher values of the samples using irrigation (30.6 ± 6.1%) compared with those without (19.7 ± 6.1%). No statistical differences were detected for 500 and 1,000 RPM with or without irrigation. The wide 6-mm diameter implant showed differences with respect to drilling speed, 500 and 1,000 RPM, with higher values associated with samples subjected to irrigation. BAFO results, for both diameters, only detected statistical differences between the 2 times (3 vs 6 weeks); no statistical differences were detected when evaluating as a function of time, drilling speed, and irrigation. CONCLUSIONS Surgical instrumentation variables (ie, drilling speed [RPM] and irrigation) yielded to be more of an effect for BIC at longer healing time (6 weeks) for the wider implants. Furthermore, deploying narrow or wide plateau-root-form implants, where conditions allow, has shown to be a safe alternative, considering the high BIC and BAFO values observed, independent of irrigation.

Abstract
The main aim of bone tissue engineering is to fabricate highly biocompatible, osteoconductive and/or osteoinductive biomaterials for tissue regeneration. Bone implants should support bone growth at the implantation site via promotion of osteoblast adhesion, proliferation, and formation of bone extracellular matrix. Moreover, a very desired feature of biomaterials for clinical applications is their osteoinductivity, which means the ability of the material to induce osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells toward bone-building cells (osteoblasts). Nevertheless, the development of completely biocompatible biomaterials with appropriate physicochemical and mechanical properties poses a great challenge for the researchers. Thus, the current trend in the engineering of biomaterials focuses on the surface modifications to improve biological properties of bone implants. This review presents the most recent findings concerning surface modifications of biomaterials to improve their osteoconductivity and osteoinductivity. The article describes two types of surface modifications: (1) Additive and (2) subtractive, indicating biological effects of the resultant surfaces in vitro and/or in vivo. The review article summarizes known additive modifications, such as plasma treatment, magnetron sputtering, and preparation of inorganic, organic, and composite coatings on the implants. It also presents some common subtractive processes applied for surface modifications of the biomaterials (i.e., acid etching, sand blasting, grit blasting, sand-blasted large-grit acid etched (SLA), anodizing, and laser methods). In summary, the article is an excellent compendium on the surface modifications and development of advanced osteoconductive and/or osteoinductive coatings on biomaterials for bone regeneration.

Int J Implant Dent 2020; 6:29. [PMID: 32719900 PMCID: PMC7385050 DOI: 10.1186/s40729-020-00230-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2020] [Accepted: 05/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The aim of the present retrospective study was to evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes, in terms of implant survival rate, marginal bone loss, and peri-implantitis incidence, of a titanium implants with an innovative laser-treated surface. Materials and methods A total of 502 dental implants were inserted in four dental practices (Udine, Arezzo, Frascati, Roma) between 2008 and 2013. All inserted implants had laser-modified surface characterized by a series of 20-μm-diameter holes (7–10 μm deep) every 10 μm (Synthegra®, Geass srl, Italy). The minimum follow-up period was set at 1 year after the final restoration. Radiographs were taken after implant insertion (T0), at time of loading (T1), and during the follow-up period (last recall, T2). Marginal bone loss and peri-implant disease incidence were recorded. Results A total of 502 implants with a maximum follow-up period of 6 years were monitored. The mean differential between T0 and T2 was 0.05 ± 1.08 mm at the mesial aspect and 0.08 ± 1.11 mm at the distal with a mean follow-up period of 35.76 ± 18.05 months. After being in function for 1 to 6 years, implants reported varying behavior: 8.8% of sites did not show any radiographic changes and 38.5% of sites showed bone resorption. The bone appeared to have been growing coronally in 50.7% of the sites measured. Conclusion Implants showed a maintenance of marginal bone levels over time, and in many cases, it seems that laser-modified implant surface could promote a bone growth. The low peri-implant disease incidence recorded could be attributed to the laser titanium surface features that seem to prevent bacterial colonization. Future randomized and controlled studies are needed to confirm the results of the present multi-centrical retrospective analysis.
