Bacterial peri‐implant biofilms, and the chemotherapeutics for their removal alter titanium surface cytocompatibility. In this study we aimed to assess the adjunctive use of an osteostimulative biomaterial utilizing a peri‐implantitis model under the hypothesis that it will increase cell migration towards treated titanium surfaces. Acid‐etched titanium surfaces were inoculated with a multi‐species biofilm model and treated with 1.5% NaOCl in a previously characterized in vitro peri‐implantitis model. Cell migration of MG63 cells towards the treated titanium surface (CTRL) was significantly reduced following inoculation with biofilm and chemotherapeutic treatment as compared to sterile controls. Addition of a tricalcium phosphate biomaterial (TCP) as a control for Ca +2 had a small non‐significant effect, while BG significantly increased MG63 chemotaxis to titanium to levels comparable to sterile (STE). Similarly, cell viability at 5 days was increased in BG and TCP as compared to CTRL. SEM imaging confirmed the improved cytocompatibility of BG and TCP surfaces as compared to CTRL. Osteostimulative BG exhibited a strong chemotactic effect to osteoblasts, which was stronger than what was expected due to the chemotactic effect of Ca +2 alone (TCP). In addition, substantially increased cell attachment and viability was found on treated implant surfaces as compared to CTRL. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
