Abstract
Background: Dental implants failure often occurs because of inadequate osseointegration process. Thus, a lot of implant surface modifications are studied to increase the osseointegration, such as sandblasting. Aluminium oxide (Al2O3 ) and Titanium Oxide (TiO2 ) are the common particles for sandblasting to roughen the implant surface. Sandblasting is affected by a few parameters, including type of particles, size of particles, blasting pressure, blasting duration, and blasting distance. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of Al2O3 and TiO2 particles in sandblasting to increase implant surface roughness. Method: The Scoping Review method on this research is written according to the PRISMA 2009 Flow Diagram and uses the data basis of Google Scholar into four main journals that met the inclusion criteria that had been processed using a study tool with boolean operator. Result: Implant surface roughness on sandblasted implant is higher than machined implant. These studies show osseointegration enhancement in Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) and removal torque value. The first study shows the surface roughness of machined implant is 0.159 μ-m, as for sandblasted implant is 0.699 μ-m. The second one shows that all implants achieve primary stabilization and at the end of both 1st and 3rd months, all implants were osseointegrated. However, these particles have similar effectiveness in osseointegration enhancement. Conclusion: Roughness of dental implants are higher in Al2O3 sandblasted implants, although there is no significant difference between Al2O3 and TiO2 sandblasted implants.
