Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the antimicrobial effect in vitro of implant coating by introducing antimicrobial ion. Methods: A novel coating was prepared on dental implant surface via electrochemistry approach by introducing antimicrobial ion to recombine chemical composition, and concentrations of ions being released were measured. The biological performances were systematically explored as follows:(1) Survival situation of bacteria cultured on specimens was observed by CLSM; (2) Antimicrobial rate was calculated. Results: It was found that this functionalized implant controlled copper ions release in a sustained pattern. Additionally, it was capable of reducing viability of oral pathogens effectively, displaying its excellent antibacterial property. Conclusion: It was suggested that implant coatings incorporated with antimicrobial element by electrochemistry approach for sustained release pattern and superior antimicrobial activity could be achieved.
