Plasma-Assisted Silver Deposition on Titanium Surface: Biocompatibility and Bactericidal Effect

Abstract Dental implants are especially susceptible to bacterial adhesion and so microbial contamination. Several techniques have been explored in order to obtain implant surfaces enriched with silver (Ag). The main challenge is to obtain a bactericidal effect keeping the surface biocompatible. In t...
