Accelerated Photo-Induced Hydrophilicity Promotes Osseointegration: An Animal Study

Abstract: The results proved that the enhanced photo-induced hydrophilicity of the NH(4) F-HF(2) -modified anodized implants promoted bone apposition during the early stages of osseointegration.

“…It is well known that plasma fibronectin binds more to hydrophilic surfaces [36], whereas albumin binds more to hydrophobic surfaces [37]. Anodic oxidized Ti surfaces have been reported to present hydrophilicity [38,39]. It has also been reported that anodic oxidized Ti surfaces have high surface energy [40,41], which is essential for maintaining surface hydrophilicity [42].…”

“…On photocatalytic TiO 2 surfaces, UV light generates free radicals available to mineralize adhered contaminants (such as bacteria), but also creates a superhydrophilic surface due to increased hydroxylation [47]. This makes for an efficient, on-demand self cleaning surface, but it has also been shown that pretreatments with UV light can enhance protein adsorption, cell attachment and osteoconductivity on Ti implants, largely due to removal of adhered hydrocarbons [48,49]. Moreover, Ag-doped TiO 2 has displayed higher photocatalytic activity and stronger antibacterial effect than regular TiO 2 , due to improved charge separation, making it an interesting option as a multifunctional biomedical coating [50].…”

“…Irrespective of the biomaterial, surface topography, or wettability status of the surface, the initial contact with blood will rapidly attract proteins [1], which in turn will initiate the process of bone formation [2, 3]. In fact, protein adsorption to the implant surface has been suggested to be important for the osteoconduction stage of osseointegration [46].…”
