In vitro investigation of titanium and hydroxyapatite dental implant surfaces using a rat bone marrow stromal cell culture system

In this study, rat bone marrow cells (RBM) were used to evaluate different titanium and hydroxyapatite dental implant surfaces.

Description
Summary:In this study, rat bone marrow cells (RBM) were used to evaluate different titanium and hydroxyapatite dental implant surfaces. The implant surfaces investigated were: a titanium surface having a porous titanium plasma-sprayed coating (sample code Ti-TPS), a titanium surface with a deep profile structure (sample code Ti-DPS), an uncoated titanium substrate with a machined surface (sample code Ti-ma) and a machined titanium substrate with a porous hydroxyapatite plasma-sprayed coating (sample code Ti-HA). RBM cells were cultured on the disc-shaped test substrates for 14 days. The culture medium was changed daily and examined for calcium and phosphate concentrations. After 14 days specimens were examined by light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis and morphometry of the cell-covered substrate surface. All test substrates facilitated RBM growth of extracellular matrix formation. Ti-DPS and Ti-TPS to the highest degree, followed by Ti-ma and Ti-HA. Ti-DPS and Ti-TPS displayed the highest cell density and thus seem to be well suited for the endosseous portion of dental implants. RBM cells cultured on Ti-HA showed a delayed growth pattern. This may be related to its high phosphate ion release.
