Motivation
As the average age of population grows, the need for medical devices/biomaterials to replace damaged or worn tissues increases.
As patients have become more and more demanding regarding esthetic and biocompatibility aspects of their dental/orthopedic restorations .

The field of tissue engineering is highly interdisciplinary
Bringstogetherpeoplewithknowledgeinmaterialsscience,biochemistry,cellbiology,immunology,andsurgicalexpertisetosolvearangeofopenproblems.

Motivation
The surface modification and post-synthesis treatment also influences the performances of the bioceramicsdesigned to dental and ortopedicapplications.
According to their interaction with surrounding tissue, bioceramicscan be categorized as ‘‘bioinert’’ or ‘‘bioactive.’’
Tough and strong ceramics like zirconia, alumina or alumina-zirconiacomposites are not capable of creating a biologically adherent interface layer with bone due to the chemically inert nature of these two stable oxides .
PMMA cements cannot adhere to existing bone, but this disadvantage may not be as pertinent for vertebroplastyas for arthroplasty, because is injected directly into the bone instead using as an adhesive agent.

Surface modification: organic coating
Theuseofsurfacecoveringlayers(i.e.coatings)provides
methodstocontrolthebiologicalresponsetomaterialsandmaterialdevicesincludingimplantsandprostheses.
Severaltypesoforganicmaterialscanbeusedtogenerateacoatingwithspecificmodulatoryeffectsonthebiologicalresponse.Examplesincludeproteins,DNA, sugars,etc.

Organiccoatingsconsistingofproteinsaregenerallybasedonthepresenceoftheseproteinsattheimplantlocation

Characteristics of FTIR bands
Specific components within the fine structure of amide I adsorbed collagen is correlated with different states of hydrogen bonding associated with the local conformations of the alpha chain peptide backbones.
The highest frequency carbonyl absorption peak represents the weakest H-bonded system .
The peak located in the higher region, at 1682 cm-1, represent the formation of an antiparallelβ-sheet structure (or turns).
As a general behavior, one can observe a shift toward lower frequencies, a decrease in α helix total content and concomitant increase of turn percentage upon adsorption, as a consequence of denaturation.

The formation of hydroxyapatitecrystals was strongly influenced by the presence of collagen layer, but dependent on the silver oxide concentration as well. [S. Cavalu& all, 2010]

Why fluoride?
Administration of complex fluorides suggests the possibility of using them as effective agents in dental caries prevention.
Stannous fluoride converts the calcium mineral apatite into fluorapatite, which makes tooth enamel more resistant to bacteria generated acid attacks.
NaFhas been known to be one of the most effective agents for the treatment of vertebral osteoporosis by its stimulating effect on new bone formation.

In vitro test: cells culture
Human fibroblast (HLF) seeded in a concentration of 2x104/cm2 cells on the surface of each sample (SnF2 respectively NaBF4 treated ) and cultured for 3h, 7h and 24h.
Cell nuclei were stained with 5 mMDraq5 diluted 1:1000 in distilled water for 5 min at room temperature.
