Abstract

Background  The growing demand for tooth replacement has increased the use of Ti dental implants the long-term success of which depends on stable osseointegration. However, this process can be compromised by bacterial biofilm formation on implant surfaces. To overcome this, a coating strategy was explored that combines magnesium—known for its bone-regenerative and antibacterial properties—in the form of nano-Mg(OH)2 with gelatin to slow magnesium degradation and support bone growth. This study evaluated the in vitro osteogenic potential and antibacterial activity of nano-Mg(OH)2–gelatin as coating material for Ti dental implant. Methodology  Pure Ti plates (1×1 cm) were coated via electrospinning for in vitro evaluation. Samples were divided into four groups: 0 (control), 4, 6, and 8% nano-Mg(OH)₂-gelatin coating. Coating morphology and thickness were analyzed using SEM. Mg ion release, pH, and surface hydrophilicity (contact angle) were measured. Biological assessments included MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sanguinis. Statistical analyses were performed using one- or two-way ANOVA (p=0.05). The optimal biologically compatible concentration of Mg(OH)2 was evaluated. Result  SEM revealed a uniform, spiderweb-like coating with ~110–120 µm thickness. The coatings showed an initial burst of Mg ion release, peaking at 24 hours, followed by a gradual decline up to 240 hours. Increasing Mg content enhanced surface hydrophilicity, with the 6% group showing optimal wettability. Increasing Mg content improved MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation, peaking at 8%, whereas ALP activity was enhanced in the 6% group. Moreover, the observed decrease in S. mutans and S. sanguinis colonies suggests the 6% concentration showed balance performance as coating. Conclusion  The nano-Mg(OH)₂-gelatin coating, particularly at 6% concentration, significantly enhanced the bioactivity of the Ti surface, showing dual-functional activity in vitro.
