RESUMO
To address the clinical challenges of modulus mismatch, lack of initial osteointegration and contain toxic elements towards traditional titanium and its alloys with surrounding bone tissue, a new ß-type titanium alloy (Ti-12Mo-10Zr) designed by our group will be chosen as dental implant in this proposal due to its excellent properties, e.g. low young's modulus (~ 50.8 GPa) and excellent compressive yield strength (~ 430.89 MPa). A modified hydrothermal and pressure method will be deployed to create tailored micro/nano topography and chemistry (phosphorus) on implant surface with the aim of promoting osteointegration. The formation process and mechanism of micro/nano-scaled hierarchical hybrid coating containing phosphorous will be revealed from the perspective of energetics and crystallography to realize co-design of multiple structure and chemical on Ti-12Mo-10Zr surface. The in vitro cytological performance of this hierarchical hybrid coating containing phosphorous will also be evaluated by co-culturing with rat bone marrow stromal cells This proposal will not only provide guidance and experimental database for next generation potential implant named Ti-12Mo-10Zr, but also display new insights to improve long-lasting stability for dental implant which demonstrate tremendous scientific significance.
