Description Background: Dental implants provide a unique treatment modality for the replacement of lost dentition. Functional
surface modifications by organic material such as collagen coating seem to enhance early peri-implant bone
formation, enhancing the initial cell attachment. The aim of the study was to study the expression of osteocalcin and
growth hormone receptor as bone formation markers in collagen coated and uncoated implant in interval
periods(2,and 6 weeks).
Materials and Methods: Commercially pure Titanium(cpTi) implants, coated with collagen protein, were placed in
the tibias of 32 New Zealand white rabbits, immunohistochemical tests for detection of expression of osteocalcin and
growth hormone receptor were performed on all the implants of both control and experimental groups for (2, and 6
weeks) healing intervals. Mechanical test (torque removal test) was performed as an indicator for the presence of
osseointegration and as a test for the mechanical property of bone-implant interface, because the torsion appears
to be primarily probing the interface mechanics.
Results: Removal torque mean values in all studied groups (uncoated and coated with collagen at two and six
healing intervals were increasing with advancing time (higher at 6 than 2 weeks periods). And coated implant
showed high value in comparison to control. Results have shown that positive reaction for OC&GHR was expressed
by osteoblast cells (OB)at implants coated with collagen ,indicating that bone formation &maturation was
accelerated by adding biological materials as a modification modality of implant surface..
Conclusion: Immunohistochemical findings revealed high positive expression range from strong to moderate of
osteocalcin and GHR in coated implant in comparison to uncoated specialy in early periods.
