Novel bioactive Co-based alloy/FA nanocomposite for dental applications

Abstract: Background:Dental cobalt base alloys are biocompatible dental materials and have been widely used in dentistry. However, metals are bioinert and may not present bioactivity in human body. Bioactivity is the especial ability to interact with human body and make a bonding to soft and hard tissues. The aim of the present research was fabrication and bioactivity evaluation of novel cobalt alloy/Fluorapatite nanocomposite (CoA/FaNC) with different amounts of Fluorapatite (FA) nanopowder.Materials and Methods:Co-Cr-… Show more

“…According to Food and Drug Administration records, ~400,000 hip arthroplasty procedures are performed every year in the US alone (1). As metals and metal prosthesis exhibit remarkable stability and abrasion resistance, they have been widely used in surgeries involving joint replacement and bone damage repair (2). However, abrasion and invasion of the prosthesis have been demonstrated to release large amounts of metal particles and ions, with the major components being cobalt (Co) and chromium (Cr) particles (3).…”

“…In the last few years, nanotechnology has emerged as a novel approach which has triggered a new industrial revolution due to its wide range of practical applications. (1) In terms of vocabulary, nano means one billionth (9,10) and was taken from the Greek word meaning dwarf. (2) The field of dentistry has been involved in the introduction of nanotechnology to human life in the environmental and medical sciences sector.…”

“…(8) Fat'hi et al used nano-fluorapatite in cobalt-based alloys for applications in dentistry. (9) In their research, Farzanegan explored the orthodontic use of nanoparticles including silver, copper, and zinc to prevent white enamel lesions around braces, They added nanoparticles to mouthwash to prevent the formation of caries around the braces, and used molybdenum disulfide nanoparticles to decrease friction between the wire and braces. (1) They also showed that in all designs, the lack of appropriate tools, technologies, and experts in the field of nanotechnology was acutely felt.…”
