“…Chitosan has many applications in this field, as it can be used to coat surfaces in order to increase their biocompatibility and bioactivity [ 130 ]. Chitosan can also be conjugated with other substances, including AgNPs [ 131 , 132 ], hyaluronic acid [ 131 , 133 , 134 ], poly(dopamine) and hydroxyapatite [ 135 ], collagen [ 136 ], silica [ 137 ], and poly(acrylic acid) [ 138 ]. These substances, alongside chitosan, can prevent the surface adhesion of bacteria [ 131 , 132 , 133 , 134 , 138 ], increase the proliferation of cells [ 137 , 138 ], and improve osseointegration [ 134 ], soft tissue integration [ 135 ], and peri-implant tissue attachment [ 136 ].…”
