Since theintroduction of titanium root-form dental implant in 1960’s, titanium hasbecome a widely used treatment modality in rehabilitation of completely orpartially edentulous patients. However, dental implants may fail because ofsome problems or complications such as inadequate bone healing,progressive marginal bone loss, recession of marginal mucosa, or loss ofosseointegration. It is known that the early osseointegration and thebone-implant interaction play an essential role that can determine theoutcomes of dental implant therapy. To gain a better outcome in dental implantprocedure, many studies attended to develop different modification of titaniumimplant. With the increased understanding of the function of bone-healingrelated proteins, applying bone-healing factors to the biochemical modificationof titanium becomes potential therapeutics to promote the outcomes of dentalimplant surgery. The major strategy of this study is to find mediators that canbe used to connect the titanium implant surface and bone-healing promotingfactors. The incorporation of the titanium implant and bone-healing promotingfactors could efficiently progress the bone-healing process occurred in theimplant-surrounding tissue. Small peptides with higher biocompatibility couldbe appropriate mediators to connect the titanium implant surface.The objective of this study is to identify small peptides that can be fusedwith target bone-healing promoting factors and connected to the surface oftitanium implants. We use the phage display system, a powerful highthrough-put screening system for small peptides, to find appropriatetitanium-binding peptides. Both in vitro and animal experiments will beperformed to validate their binding affinity and specificity as well as to assesstheir application outcome in the dental implant surgery. It is expected that suchtitanium-binding fusion protein coming out in this study will become thepowerful tools to promote the dental implant surgery in the future.Identification and Clinical Application of Titanium-Binding Peptide
