Abstract
Objective: To analyze the studies that used titanium dioxide in the anatase phase in dental implants, focusing on the properties of wettand photocatalysis and its improvements in osseointegration. Method: The search strategy used combinations of keywords: titaniumdioxide and dental implant and osseointegration and anatase and hydrophilicity, in the Pubmed, Medline, Cochrane, Scielo, Scopus and Lilacs databases. Results: The best results were confirmed by 14 studies and are directly related to titanium dioxide in the anatase phase by the electrochemical anodization method, acid attack and irradiated by violet light (UV) and photocatalysis that promotes wetability. Final Considerations: Improvements and benefits were confirmed by surface treatment in dental implants using titanium dioxide. Contact angle, roughness and bone formation (BIC or BMC) were analyzed to verify the factors for acceleration and improvements in osseointegration.
