Continuous local minocycline delivery from PLA nanosphere-coated dental implants with long-term antibacterial activity and biocompatibility
Peri-implant infections remain a major cause of dental implant failure and are often associated with bacterial colonization and biofilm formation on implant surfaces. This study aimed to develop and evaluate minocycline (MC)-coated dental implants for local antibiotic delivery and infection prevention. Drug-free poly(d...
