Article Abstract

Developing titanium-based dental implants with both excellent antibacterial properties and good osseointegration is crucial for the success of the implant operation and the long-term durability of the implant. In this study, a polydopamine-based coating was created by attaching TiO nanosheets-cyanine composites onto the titanium surface, enabling the integration of effective photothermal antibacterial therapy with osseointegration. The exceptional dual-photothermal conversion abilities of polydopamine and cyanine in the coating resulted in outstanding photothermal antibacterial and antibiofilm therapy against four types of bacteria. Furthermore, TiO nanosheets promoted the adhesion, proliferation and early osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts. In an infected dental implant model in rats, the developed coating exhibited potent antibacterial activity and remarkable osteogenic differentiation in the bone, leading to increased bone formation around the implants. This innovative approach, combining photothermal therapy with osteogenic two-dimensional nanomaterials, presents a novel method for surface functionalization of implants to achieve effective antibacterial and osseointegration capabilities.

Infection and insufficient osseointegration are the primary factors leading to the failure of titanium-based implants. Surface coating modifications that combine both antibacterial and osteogenic properties are commonly employed strategies. However, the challenge of achieving rapid antibacterial action and consistent osteogenesis with these coatings remains unresolved.

Photothermal therapy (PTT) demonstrates significant potential in cancer treatment, wound healing, and antibacterial therapy, with its efficacy largely depending on the performance of photothermal agents (PTAs). Metal-phenolic network (MPN) materials are ideal PTA candidates due to their low cost, good biocompatibility and excellent ligand-to-metal charge transfer properties. However, not all MPNs exhibit significant photothermal properties, and the vast chemical space of MPNs (over 700,000 potential combinations) complicates the screening of high-photothermal materials.

Monitoring wound infection and providing appropriate treatment are crucial for achieving favorable outcomes. However, the time-consuming nature of laboratory culture tests may delay timely intervention. To tackle this challenge, a simple yet effective HDG hydrogel, composed of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), dopamine, and GelMA polymer, is developed for the ultrafast detection and treatment of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) infections.
