Enhanced healing process of tooth sockets using strontium-doped TiO2

Abstract

Prevention of residual ridge resorption is important for tooth socket healing in clinical treatment. As a well known biomaterial, titanium dioxide (TiO2) has been reported to show desirable bone regeneration capability. On the other hand, strontium plays a role in maintaining normal function in organisms and balancing bone remodeling. Hence, we synthesized strontium-doped titanium dioxide mesoporous nanospheres functionalized with amino-group using diphenyl diisocyanate. After incorporation with segmented polyurethane, the obtained injectable SPU/Sr-TiO2/MDI nanocomposite adhesive showed satisfactory antibacterial activity and cell nontoxicity. This nanocomposite was used for tooth socket healing, and greatly promoted the formation of new bone tissue in the tooth extraction socket.
