 Abstract orthopedic and dental implants have become increasingly popular in recent years, leading to a rise in demand for implants and a decrease in the number of failed surgeries and deaths caused by infections. Researchers have developed new techniques to mimic the natural bactericidal properties of certain animals, plants and insects, which have been found to be effective at reducing bacterial adhesion. However, further research is needed to determine how these surfaces interact with different types of bacteria and what parameters should be included when designing them. Additionally, the mechanical stability and cytotoxicity of these surfaces must be evaluated before they can be used on orthopedic implant surfaces.
