Abstrakt: Statement of Problem: The hydrophobic and bioinert nature of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) implants needs to be addressed for successful osseointegration.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the osteoblast cell behavior on PEEK implant surfaces treated with airborne-particle abrasion using different grit size aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) particles.
Material and Methods: Disk-shaped specimens (n=96) were prepared from medical grade PEEK rods and were distributed into 4 groups (n=24) of untreated PEEK (PEEK 0), airborne-particle abrasion using 50-μm Al 2 O 3 particles (PEEK 50), airborne-particle abrasion using 110-μm Al 2 O 3 particles (PEEK 110), and airborne-particle abrasion using 150-μm Al 2 O 3 particles (PEEK 150). The surface characteristics were assessed using water contact angle (WCA) measurements and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). MG-63 osteoblast cells were cultured, and the biocompatibility of PEEK was assessed using a CellTiter-blue cell viability assay and florescence staining at day 1, 3, and 7. The specimens were stained with Alizarin red to assess the osteoblast cell differentiation on day 10 and 14. The Levene test was used to test the homogeneity of variances. One-way and Welch ANOVA with post hoc corrections were used to assess the overall statistical significance of differences among the groups (α=.05).
Results: The lowest mean WCA was demonstrated in PEEK 150 (49.25 ±5.51) and the highest in PEEK 0 (89.14 ±4.24) (P<.001). SEM images of PEEK 150 illustrated a more complex structure with a large area of globular outcroppings throughout the surface. PEEK 150 showed the highest cell metabolic activity at each time point with florescence staining showing a substantial cell confluence at day 3 and 7. Although PEEK 150 did not show a significant increase in cell proliferation, the number of cells attached was significantly higher than other groups (P<.05). PEEK 110 and 150 also showed a substantial increase in the extent of mineralization.
Conclusions: Airborne-particle abrasion using moderate Al 2 O 3 grit size (110- or 150-μm) improved the hydrophilicity and osteoblast cell behavior on PEEK implants.
