Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an endosseous implant, wherein at least one part of its outer surface designed to come into contact with bone matter has a collagen coating.
  • the invention also refers to a method for preparing the endosseous implant.
  • the invention additionally concerns a kit for the preparation of such an implant.
  • the implant, the method for its preparation and the related implant kit are intended for use in the fields of dentistry, orthopaedics and neurosurgery.
  • This process is influenced by various physical parameters of the surface of the graft; it is a biological process wherein an intimately connected bone layer is deposited so that it adheres to the surface of the grafted object, thereby affording it a degree of mechanical stability.
  • the characteristics of the graft surfaces capable of influencing the process of osteointegration have been accurately studied with a view to further improving the efficacy of said process of osteointegration in order to increase said stability and consequently enable the successful grafting of such objects even in conditions where the surrounding bone tissue is limited, porous or atrophic.
  • This research has prompted two types of technical advance: the production of surfaces with particular roughness characteristics, i.e. with particular shapes and sizes of recesses created in the metal (and a consequent degree of surface porosity) mainly to facilitate the cells' adhesion to the metal, as well as supporting their cellular biology; and the coating of said surfaces with materials different from the metal involved, here again to stimulate cell adhesion and cell activity around the implanted object.
  • inorganic compounds e.g. hydroxyapatite
  • organic compounds e.g. peptides, denatured collagen derived from skin/tendon
  • the bone-implant contact area increased by 23.8% in the presence of the coating.
  • the object of the present invention is to further optimise the surface changes in order to further improve the osteointegration of endosseous implants, and therefore to produce an improved endosseous implant that enables better osteointegration of the same.
  • an object of the invention is to propose a method and a kit for preparing such an implant.
  • an endosseous implant of the initially-mentioned type wherein the collagen essentially retains the structure of native natural collagen.
  • the collagen essentially has the structure of native natural collagen is intended to mean that it may be collagen of natural origin that is not denatured during its extraction from the natural source, or it may be collagen of synthetic origin but with the same, or basically the same structure as native collagen (i.e. not denatured), or reconstituted collagen, i.e. collagens that are capable of performing the same functions as native natural collagen.
  • osteointegration-stimulating effect of denatured collagen is partially attributable, in all likelihood, to the amino acid sequence and to portions of the protein chain, which may locally retain their native conformation even though the whole protein has been denatured.
  • Protein denaturing is a gradual process that starts from a single, three- dimensional conformation and leads to severe stretching of the amino acid chain, with the rupture of all the intramolecular bonds.
  • osteointegration-stimulating effects are still detectable even if the protein loses its global native conformation and/or becomes fragmented during the denaturing collagen extraction process.
  • the ultimate effect on osteointegration is consequently greater because it facilitates the intimate, mechanically stable adhesion of the just formed bone tissue to the surface thus coated.
  • Collagen is a biocompatible material that also forms a coating that is degraded and absorbed during osteointegration, when the bone adheres directly to the implant, assuring its long-standing stability.
  • osteointegration-supporting growth factors When collagen is extracted from bone tissue, osteointegration-supporting growth factors can remain bonded to, or embedded in the collagen molecule, which can further increase the already stimulating effect of native collagen in scarcely denaturing conditions and with no need to adopt processes to remove said growth factors.
  • growth factors can be added to powdered collagen (e.g. by adding denatured collagen), or they may be already contained therein if the collagen is extracted using non-denaturing methods that do not destroy the growth factors.
  • the collagen is mainly collagen type I.
  • Collagen type I is the most widespread collagen and has demonstrated a good osteointegration- stimulating capacity.
  • the collagen is native bone collagen.
  • Bone collagen derives from the same tissue (i.e. bone tissue) as the tissue in which the endosseous implant is grafted, ensuring an implicitly strong "kinship" between the surface of the implant and the site of the implant.
  • the coating is produced by means of the deposition of collagen in powdered form in the presence of water on the outer surface of the implant and the subsequent lyophilization of the implant together with the deposited coating. Said deposition in the presence of water can be achieved by depositing an aqueous suspension of the powdered collagen on the implant or, as a feasible alternative, by depositing the collagen powder on the wetted implant.
  • collagen deposition on the implant in the presence of water is characterised by a good wettability, and that the subsequent co-lyophilization of the implant with the layer of collagen ensures an excellent adhesion of the collagen to the surface of the implant, consequently creating a very stable bond between the implant and the collagen.
  • Deposition of the collagen in the form of an aqueous suspension is particularly suitable.
  • This process of collagen deposition on the implant in the presence of water and subsequent lyophilization of the thus coated implant in order to coat the implant in a stable manner can also be applied to coatings with denatured collagen, obtained from skin or tendon for instance, thereby improving the adhesion of the collagen to the implant.
  • One type of collagen that has demonstrated excellent osteointegration- stimulating capacities is a collagen extracted from bone matter using non- denaturing or scarcely denaturing methods, and particularly by treating the bone matter with diluted hydrochloric acid. This gives rise to a collagen originating from bone, which is consequently particularly suitable for facilitating osteointegration.
  • Treatment with hydrochloric acid is an inexpensive and straightforward method for obtaining non-denatured collagen.
  • the preferred bone matter is of mammalian origin, and may be of autogenous, allogeneic or xenogeneic type
  • the endosseous implant is a dental implant, an orthopaedic implant, or a neurosurgical implant.
  • endosseous implant surfaces with native collagen to facilitate osteointegration is practically suitable for all types of endosseous implant made of various materials and in various shapes. Titanium implants are particularly preferred.
  • the material on the outer surface of the implant is preferably chosen from the group comprising the metals, and particularly titanium and zirconium, ceramics, hydroxyapatite, phosphates and polymers.
  • the outer surface is advantageously rough. This roughness increases the contact area between the implant and the collagen, and also enables the collagen to penetrate towards the inside of the implant, facilitating the interaction between the collagen and the implant surface.
  • Another important aspect of the invention is a method for preparing an endosseous implant comprising the following phases:
  • phase (b) deposition of collagen essentially having the structure of natural native collagen on at least one part of the outer surface of the implant that is intended to come into contact with bone matter.
  • This method enables the preparation of an endosseous implant according to the invention that is particularly suitable for the purpose of osteointegration.
  • the deposition takes place with collagen in powdered form and in the presence of water, and in such a manner that, after phase (b), there is a phase (c) comprising the dehydration of the collagen-coated implant by lyophilization.
  • phase (c) comprising the dehydration of the collagen-coated implant by lyophilization.
  • Said deposition in the presence of water is preferably achieved either by depositing an aqueous suspension of the powdered collagen on the implant or by depositing the collagen powder on a wetted implant.
  • the water may be physiological solution or demineralised water (e.g. distilled water for injection).
  • Any type of water suitable for producing a biocompatible, non-toxic and sterile implant may be used.
  • the collagen is extracted from bone matter (preferably mammalian), particularly by treating the bone matter with diluted hydrochloric acid;
  • the dehydrated native bone collagen is ground into a fine powder.
  • the extraction of bone collagen with diluted hydrochloric acid offers numerous advantages: it does not require any special chemical reagents (HCI in low concentrations suffices), it requires a very inexpensive raw material (bone tissue from slaughterhouse waste), and it takes place in non-denaturing conditions (i.e. the extracted bone collagen is a protein in its native conformation, a necessary condition for its stimulating biological activity).
  • This variant embodiment of the invention thus enable surfaces of objects intended for endosseous implantation to be coated with a non-denatured protein (collagen) obtained from the same type of tissue as the tissue involved in the implant (bone tissue) and with a considerable increase in the cost- benefit ratio.
  • a non-denatured protein collagen obtained from the same type of tissue as the tissue involved in the implant (bone tissue) and with a considerable increase in the cost- benefit ratio.
  • a standard non-denaturing method using low concentrations of HCI is as follows: the bone matter is immersed in diluted hydrochloric acid. Molar concentrations of approximately 0.15, corresponding to a pH of approximately 0.8, are particularly suitable.
  • the treatment time is preferably 48 hours.
  • the bone matter is demineralised during the treatment.
  • the remaining collagen, which is native (i.e. practically non-denatured) is separated from the solution. Then the separated collagen is washed, using osmotically purified water for instance.
  • the concentrations of hydrochloric acid can naturally vary within the limits that enable native, or scarcely denatured collagen to be obtained; the treatment time for dissolving the mineral part of the bone may also vary.
  • the characteristics identified and defined for the endosseous implant e.g. the quality of the implant's surface, the source of the collagen, etc.
