Silver-Coated Titanium Dental Implants: Low Toxicity and High Biocompatibility

Posted: December 1, 2024
This study investigated the toxicity of silver released from silver-plated titanium dental implants to human primary osteoblast cells and assessed the impact of cell culture medium on silver speciation. Results showed low toxicity of the released silver to osteoblast cells, with no deleterious effects observed. The controlled release of silver was found to be biocompatible, making the silver coating of titanium implants potentially safe for clinical use.
