Titanium and titanium alloys are the most common materials used for dental and biomedical implants, owing to their biocompatibility and favourable mechanical properties. However infection of the region surrounding a dental implant by pathogenic microorganisms is a significant factor in implant failure. Prevention and control of microbial colonization of implant surfaces is considerable interest to the biomedical community. One important strategy is to render the implant surface antibacterial by impeding the formation of biofilm. A number of approaches have been proposed for this purpose. Therefore, we reviewed the researches of antibacterial coatings on titanium implants in this articles.
