Journal ArticleDOI
Antibacterial coatings on titanium implants.
TL;DR: A number of approaches have been proposed for rendering the implant surface antibacterial by impeding the formation of a biofilm and they are reviewed in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibacterial nano-structured titania coating incorporated with silver nanoparticles.

TL;DR: Titanium (Ti) implants are widely used clinically but post-operation infection remains one of the most common and serious complications and a surface boasting long-term antibacterial ability is highly desirable in order to prevent implant associated infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of hierarchical hybrid micro/nano-textured titanium surface with titania nanotubes on osteoblast functions
TL;DR: A synergistic role played by the micro and nanotopographies in osteoblast functions is revealed and insight to the design of better biomedical implant surfaces is provided and leads to faster bone maturation around the titanium implants without compromising the bone mass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibacterial effects and biocompatibility of titanium surfaces with graded silver incorporation in titania nanotubes.
Shenglin Mei,Huaiyu Wang,Wei Wang,Liping Tong,Haobo Pan,Changshun Ruan,Qianli Ma,Mengyuan Liu,Huiling Yang,Liang Zhang,Yicheng Cheng,Yumei Zhang,Lingzhou Zhao,Paul K. Chu +13 more
TL;DR: A dual process encompassing anodization and silver plasma immersion ion implantation (Ag PIII) is utilized to produce titania nanotubes (TiO₂-NTs) containing Ag at different sites and depths and the technique and resulting materials have large potential in dental implants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of micropitted/nanotubular titania topographies on bone mesenchymal stem cell osteogenic differentiation.
TL;DR: T titania nanotubes 25 and 80 nm in size with the acid-etched Ti topography and hierarchical hybrid micropitted/nanotubular topographies are produced to mimic the structure of the natural bone extracellular matrix, showing the best ability to simultaneously promote MSC proliferation and osteogenic differentiation.
