The influence of biological environment on the appearance of silver-coated implants

Abstract

Despite antibiotics preventive treatment before and after implantation, risk of infection is real. The infections at the implant surface developein a few months after applying them into the body. To prevent the development of bacteria and to reduce the risk of infection, implants coated with silver layer come into use.
