| Abstract Scope |
Porous metal coatings on Ti metal implants play a vital role in surrounding bone tissue integration and enhance osseointegration at the surface of the implants, thus, reducing patient recovery time. At the same time, infection prevention at the implant site is of prime importance to reduce the possibility of revision surgery. The inorganic phase of the bone contains macro-nutrients in trace elements such as Mg2+, Si4+, etc., which play a vital role in bone formation and remodeling. The addition of SiO2 and MgO in trace amounts into porous Ti surface coating is expected to promote angiogenesis and osteogenesis, enhancing tissue integration, regeneration, and osseointegration in vivo beyond what bulk Ti material can offer. Copper is known to have antibacterial properties. It is expected that the addition of copper in trace amounts would help prevent primary and secondary infections on the implant surface without causing cytotoxicity in vivo. |
