Abstract: Titanium is widely used as dental implant and orthopedic implant due to its excellent physical and chemical properties and good biocompatibility. However, graft integration failure or implant centered infection may occur with titanium implants. In recent years, physical, chemical, and biological modifications of titanium surface for optimizing implant properties have become a research focus. Graphene oxide has good mechanical properties, bone conductivity, bone inductivity, biocompatibility, antibacterial property, and easy functionalization. At present, graphene oxide is increasingly applied in the research and development of composite biological materials. In this paper, the application of graphene oxide to surface modification of titanium is reviewed.

Key words: graphene oxide, titanium, the surface modification
