A literature review on different types of surface treatment in implants

Abstract

In a present scenario, dental implants are becoming very popular in day to day practice and is one of the most promising treatment modality in the procedure of replacement of missing tooth or teeth in the oral cavity. There are various factors over which the success of implant therapy depends, such as local as well as systemic factors, like age, bone availability in terms of height and width, bone density, any local infection present, systemic disease, and some other factors like implant design, implant surface, which plays an important role in the process of osseointegration.

Assessment of Marginal Bone Loss of Early Loaded Nano Coated Hydroxyapatite Implants in Posterior Maxilla

“…Different surface treatments or modifications, including physical, chemical, and mechanical ones, can be done in titanium dental implants. (Sehrawat et al, 2021) Dental implants surface coating techniques contribute to important positive effects on implant's stability and osseointegration. One common method of surface treatment is blasting, which can quickly roughen an implant's surface but falls short when it comes to critical factors including bone implant contact, removal torque values, tissue response, and biocompatibility.…”

Radiographic evaluation of alveolar bone height changes around mandibular implants with different surface treatments supporting mandibular overdenture (A split mouth comparative study )

“…Secondary implant stability is influenced by many factors, such as topography, bone quality, and patient factors. 7,8 MTX is an uncoated micro-textured surface that is coated by sintering the machined titanium implant surface with HA particles, then washed in a nonirritating acid bath and distilled water to remove the residual blasting material. 8…”
