Abstract:Surface chemistry evaluation is crucial in assessing the efficacy of chemical decontamination products for titanium implants. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of chemical decontamination solutions in cleaning a contaminated dental implant surface and to evaluate the potential of combining Pluronic gel with hydrogen peroxide (NuBone®Clean) by evaluating pellicle disruption and re-formation on implant surfaces. In addition, ensuring safety with in vitro and human testing protocols. X-ray Photoel… Show more
“…They can be deposited, by a plasma (electrical discharge) based process 24 on various surfaces, including titanium, which is largely applied for different kinds of medical implants. 25 Thus, this study represents a part of a much broader project aiming at elaboration of antimicrobial surfaces involving SiO 2 as a host matrix, to be applied as coating layers for implantable medical devices.…”

“…Moreover, the plasma deposition of thin silica layers allows the development of strategies for surface coating of different medical implants, for example titanium-made dental implants. 25 All these potential applications of SiO 2 thin layers require a deeper understanding of the physicochemical properties and the basic principles of the complex material surface–microbiological interactions. 26…”
