Abstract
Peri-implantitis and osseointegration failure present considerable challenges to the prolonged stability of oral implants. To address these issues, there is an escalating demand for a resilient implant surface coating that seamlessly integrates antimicrobial features to combat bacteria-induced peri‑implantitis, and osteogenic properties to promote bone formation. In the present study, a bio-inspired poly(amidoamine) dendrimer (DA-PAMAM-NH2) is synthesized by utilizing a mussel protein (DA) known for its strong adherence to various materials. Conjugating DA with PAMAM-NH2, inherently endowed with antibacterial and osteogenic properties, results in a robust and multifunctional coating. Robust adhesion between DA-PAMAM-NH2 and the titanium alloy surface is identified using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and attenuated total reflectance-infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy. Following a four-week immersion of the coated titanium alloy surface in simulated body fluid (SBF), the antimicrobial activity and superior osteogenesis of the DA-PAMAM-NH2-coated surface remain stable. In contrast, the bifunctional effects of the PAMAM-NH2-coated surface diminish after the same immersion period. In vivo animal experiments validate the enduring antimicrobial and osteogenic properties of DA-PAMAM-NH2-coated titanium alloy implants, significantly enhancing the long-term stability of the implants. This innovative coating holds promise for addressing the multifaceted challenges associated with peri‑implantitis and osseointegration failure in titanium-based implants.
Statement of significance
Prolonged stability of oral implants remains a clinically-significant challenge. Peri-implantitis and osseointegration failure are two important contributors to the poor stability of oral implants. The present study developed a mussel-bioinspired poly(amidoamine) dendrimer (DA-PAMAM-NH2) for a resilient implant surface coating that seamlessly integrates antimicrobial features to combat bacteria-induced peri‑implantitis, and osteogenic properties to promote bone formation to extend the longevity of oral implants.
