ABSTRACT: Objectives
Macrophages are among the first cells to interact with the dental implant surface and are critical regulators for controlling the immune response toward biomaterials. Macrophages can polarize between two main phenotypes: proinflammatory M1 macrophages and anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages. This systematic review aims to determine if a differing macrophage inflammatory response exists on hydrophilic sandblasted large grit, acid-etched (SLActive) surfaces compared to sandblasted large grit, acid-etched (SLA) titanium or titanium-zirconium surfaces during in vitro studies. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A systematic search of three electronic databases, Medline, DOSS (Dentistry and Oral Sciences Source), and WoS (Web of Science), was performed. Only in vitro studies were included in
