Optimising titanium implant stability and infection resistance through iron nanoparticle coatings: A preclinical investigation.

Background: Attaining adequate osseointegration and mitigating infections are paramount issues in implantology, especially within dental and orthopaedic domains. Titanium implants have been utilised for their biocompatibility and mechanical strength; yet, problems such as peri‑implant infections and inadequate bone integration may undermine their efficacy. Coating titanium implants with iron nanoparticles (FeNp) has surfaced as a promising approach to improve osseointegration and antibacterial characteristics.
