Ti-Ions and/or Particles in Saliva Potentially Aggravate Dental Implant Corrosion
Materials, 2021
The corrosive titanium products in peri-implant tissues are a potential risk factor for peri-implantitis. There is very limited information available on the effect of the corrosion and wear products on the dental implant corrosion. Therefore, we determined the influence of Ti-ions and Ti-particles on Ti corrosion. Eighteen commercially pure-Ti-grade-2 discs were polished to mirror-shine. Samples were divided into six groups (n = 3) as a function of electrolytes; (A) Artificial saliva (AS), (B) AS with Ti-ions (the electrolyte from group A, after corrosion), (C) AS with Ti-particles 10 ppm (D) AS with Ti-particles 20 ppm, (E) AS with Ti-ions 10 ppm, and (F) AS with Ti-ions 20 ppm. Using Tafel’s method, corrosion potential (Ecorr) and current density (Icorr) were estimated from potentiodynamic curves. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) data were used to construct Nyquist and Bode plots, and an equivalent electrical circuit was used to assess the corrosion kinetics. The corro...
Comparison between corrosion behaviour of implant alloys Ti6Al7Nb and Ti6Al4Zr in artificial saliva
Materials and Corrosion, 2013
The present paper investigates two different titanium alloys: Ti6Al7Nb - a well-established implant biomaterial and Ti6Al4Zr - a relatively new titanium alloy. Roughness is evaluated with atomic force microscopy (AFM) and the hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance by contact angle measurements. Furthermore, an extensive characterization was done in order to evaluate and compare the electrochemical behaviour for both titanium alloys in artificial Fusayama and Afnor saliva, at different immersion times, and consisted of Tafel plots, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Also, metals ions release was measured using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). In both studied artificial saliva, Ti6Al4Zr alloy presents a better electrochemical behaviour according to corrosion rates from both electrochemical techniques and ICP-MS.
Electrochemical Behaviour of Titanium Based Biomaterials in Artificial Saliva
Revista De Chimie, 2017
In the last decade, new titanium alloys such as Ti6Al7Nb and Ti6Al7NbN have been developed in different areas of dentistry. It is known that mechanical/electrochemical interactions accelerate corrosion in implant alloys, and these interactions can be reduced by improving the modular component machining tolerances or by improving the corrosion resistance. The aim of this study was to compare the Ti6Al7Nb and Ti6Al7NbN alloys corrosion resistance in AFNOR artificial saliva. Due to the nitrogen diffusion, the Ti6Al7NbN alloy presents more pronounced grain structure than Ti6Al7Nb. In the electrochemical estimations the polarisation data were converted into instantaneous corrosion rate values (j corr). The obtained passivation properties were comparable for both alloys. The EIS spectra were best fitted using an equivalent circuit (EC) which was consistent with the model of a two-layer structure for the passive film. The electrochemical and corrosion behaviour of Ti6Al7NbN increased the occurrence of the implant alloy's electrochemical degradation.
A Literature Review Study on Atomic Ions Dissolution of Titanium and Its Alloys in Implant Dentistry

This review of literature paper was done in order to conduct a review of the literature and an assessment of the effects of titanium implant corrosion on peri-implant health and success in the oral environment. This paper evaluates and critically reviews the findings of the multiple in-depth in vivo and in vitro studies that are related to corrosion aspects of the titanium and its alloys. A literature survey was conducted by electronic search in Medline and studies that were published between 1940 and August 2018 were selected. The search terms used were types of corrosion, corrosion of titanium implants, titanium corrosion, metal ion release from the titanium implants, fretting and pitting corrosion, implant corrosion, peri implantitis, and corrosion. Both in vivo and in vitro studies were also included in the review. The search and selection resulted in 64 articles. These articles were divided on the basis of their context to different kinds of corrosion related to titanium dental...

Corrosion behavior of ß-type titanium alloy, Ti-12Cr, has been investigated within artificial saliva solution to acquire its potential as orthodontic application. Solution treated alloy (Ti-12CrST), aging treated alloy (Ti-12CrAT 60 ks, Ti-12CrAT 30 ks), and CpTi, as a comparator for these two materials, have been immersed in solution at constant temperature 37°C and pH 5 to imitate human body condition. Corrosion behavior was carried out by applying weight loss method with different exposure times (1, 2 and 3 weeks). Surface morphology was analyzed by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Energy dispersive X-Ray (EDX) was used to determine thechemical compositions. The results reveal that the corrosion rate of Ti12CrAT 60ks, Ti-12CrAT 30ks, Ti-12CrST, and Cp-Ti alloys are 3.88x10-6mmpy, 4.18x10-6mmpy, 4.50x10-6mmpy, and 7.70 x10-6mmpy, respectively. The corrosion rate of all Ti-12Cr types is lower than that of the Cp-Ti. The hardness of Ti-12Cr and Cp-Ti alloys decreased by the...

Ion release from dental implants and prosthetic restoration can affect osteointegration and implant viability over a long period of time. Therefore, the aim of this study was to study the ion release from implants and crowns, with and without intermediate anodized abutments, in two different media, simulating clinical conditions. The implants, intermediate prosthetic abutments and Cr–Co crowns were divided into two groups depending on the media: Hanks’ solution and 1% lactic acid, simulating body fluids and microbiologically conditioned fluids, respectively. The study followed the ISO 10271:2011 and 10993-15:2000 standards modified to simulate the replacement of fluids in the oral environment. The ions’ release was measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-EOS), and only aluminum, chromium, cobalt, titanium and vanadium were identified. Ion concentration was higher in lactic acid than in Hanks’ solution at all time points (p < 0.05). Only vanadium showed a ver...

Many studies are being carried out on the particles released during the implantoplasty process in the machining of dental implants to remove bacterial biofilms. However, there are no studies on the release of particles produced by the insertion of bone-level dental implants due to the high compressive frictional loads between the rough titanium implant and the bone tissue. This paper aims to characterize the released particles and determine the release of titanium ions into the physiological environment and their cytocompatibility. For this purpose, 90 dental implants with a neck diameter of 4 mm and a torque of 22 Ncm were placed in 7 fresh cow ribs. The placement was carried out according to the established protocols. The implants had a roughness Ra of 1.92 μm. The arrangement of the particles in the bone tissue was studied by micro-CT, and no particle clusters were observed. The different granulometries of 5, 15, and 30 μm were obtained; the specific surface area was determined b...
Titanium Corrosion Mechanisms in the Oral Environment: A Retrieval Study
Materials, 2013
Corrosion of titanium dental implants has been associated with implant failure and is considered one of the triggering factors for peri-implantitis. This corrosion is concerning, because a large amount of metal ions and debris are generated in this process, the accumulation of which may lead to adverse tissue reactions in vivo. The goal of this study is to investigate the mechanisms for implant degradation by evaluating the surface of five titanium dental implants retrieved due to peri-implantitis. The results demonstrated that all the implants were subjected to very acidic environments, which, in combination with normal implant loading, led to cases of severe implant discoloration, pitting attack, cracking and fretting-crevice corrosion. The results suggest that acidic environments induced by bacterial biofilms and/or inflammatory processes may trigger oxidation of the surface of titanium dental implants. The corrosive process can lead to permanent
