Abstract:The osseointegration of titanium implants within the host tissue holds crucial importance. The introduction of functional coatings at tissue—implant interface enhances the bioactivity of titanium implants, improves their therapeutic outcomes, and enhances the effectiveness of treatments. In this study, we focused on enhancing the bioactivity of titanium‐based implant materials by coating the titanium surfaces with chitosan microspheres, which are loaded with osseointegration‐promoting agent dexamethasone (DEX)… Show more
