    Abstract:
    Roughened titanium (Ti) surfaces have been widely used for dental implants. In recent years, there has been the tendency to replace Ti plasma-sprayed surfaces by sandblasted and acid-etched surfaces in order to enhance osseous apposition. Another approach has been the utilization of hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated implants. This study examines the effect of two roughened Ti dental implant surfaces on the osteoblastic phenotype of human bone-derived cells (HBDC) and compares this behavior to that for cells on an HA-coated surface. Test materials were an acid-etched and sandblasted Ti surface (Ti-DPS), a porous Ti plasma-sprayed coating (Ti-TPS), and a plasma-sprayed porous HA coating (HA). Smooth Ti machined surfaces served as control (Ti-ma). HBDC were grown on the substrata for 3, 7, 14, and 21 days, counted and probed for various bone-related mRNAs and proteins (type I collagen, osteocalcin, osteopontin, osteonectin, alkaline phosphatase, and bone sialoprotein). All dental implant surfaces significantly affected cellular growth and the temporal expression of an array of bone-related genes and proteins. HA-coated Ti had the most effect on osteoblastic differentiation inducing a greater expression of an array of osteogenic markers than recorded for cells grown on Ti-DPS and Ti-TPS, thus suggesting that the HA-coated surface may possess a higher potency to enhance osteogenesis. Furthermore, Ti-DPS surfaces induced greater osteoblast proliferation and differentiation than Ti-TPS.
