    Abstract:
    Osteogenesis surrounding dental implants is initiated by a series of early physiological events, including the inflammatory response. However, the persistence of an anti-infection surface often results in compromised histocompatibility and osseointegration. Here, we presented a programmed surface containing both silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and silver ions (Ag+) with a heterogeneous structure and time-dependent functionalities. The AgNPs were located at the surface of the heparin-chitosan polyelectrolyte coating (PEM), whereas Ag+ was distributed at both the surface and inside of the coating under optimized conditions (pH=4). The optimized coating (Ag-4) exhibited potent bactericidal activity at the early stage (12 and 24 h after inoculation) and a sustained antibacterial efficacy in the subsequent stage (one or two weeks), as it gradually depleted. Furthermore, compared to coatings with sustained high silver concentrations in bacteria-cell coculture experiments, the degradable Ag-4 coating demonstrated improved cytocompatibility, better cell viability, and morphology over time. At a later stage (within one month), the in vivo test revealed that Ag-4-coated titanium had superior histocompatibility and osteogenesis outcomes compared to bare titanium in a bacteria-exposed environment. The programmed surface of dental implants presented in this study offers innovative ideas for sequential antibacterial effects and osseointegration.
