Antimicrobial coatings are a promising solution to control and prevent bacterial infections that compromise the success of dental implants. In the last few years, new materials that prevent biofilm adhesion to the surface of titanium implants have been reported, ranging from improved methods to already established coating surfaces. The purpose of this review is to present the developed antimicrobial and antibiofilm coatings that may have the potential to reduce bacterial infections and improve the success rate of titanium dental implants. All referred coating surfaces showed high antimicrobial properties with effectiveness in biofilm control, while maintaining implant biocompatibility. We expect that by combining the use of oligonucleotide probes as a covering material with novel peri-implant adjuvant therapies, we will be able to avoid the downsides of other covering materials (such as antibiotic resistance), prevent bacterial infections, and raise the success rate of dental implants. The existing knowledge on the optimal coating material for dental implants is limited, and further research is needed before more definitive conclusions can be drawn.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/antibiotics11020235","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,13]],"date-time":"2022-02-13T20:32:30Z","timestamp":1644784350000},"page":"235","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":78,"title":["Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Coating of Dental Implants\u2014Past and New Perspectives"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0359-5033","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Guilherme Melo","family":"Esteves","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"FMDUP\u2014Faculty of Dental Medicine, University of Porto, Rua Dr. Manuel Pereira da Silva, 4200-393 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Jo\u00e3o","family":"Esteves","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"FMDUP\u2014Faculty of Dental Medicine, University of Porto, Rua Dr. Manuel Pereira da Silva, 4200-393 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Marta","family":"Resende","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"FMDUP\u2014Faculty of Dental Medicine, University of Porto, Rua Dr. Manuel Pereira da Silva, 4200-393 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2324-5847","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Luzia","family":"Mendes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"FMDUP\u2014Faculty of Dental Medicine, University of Porto, Rua Dr. Manuel Pereira da Silva, 4200-393 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0521-2841","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andreia S.","family":"Azevedo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"LEPABE\u2014Laboratory for Process Engineering, Environment, Biotechnology and Energy, Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto, Rua Dr. Roberto Frias, 4200-465 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"i3S\u2014Instituto de Investiga\u00e7\u00e3o e Inova\u00e7\u00e3o em Sa\u00fade, Universidade do Porto, Rua Alfredo Allen 208, 4200-135 Porto, Portugal"},{"name":"IPATIMUP\u2014Institute of Molecular Pathology and Immunology, University of Porto, Rua J\u00falio Amaral de Carvalho 45, 4200-135 Porto, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"29","DOI":"10.1111\/prd.12280","article-title":"Biofilm as a risk factor in implant treatment","volume":"81","author":"Daubert","year":"2019","journal-title":"Periodontol. 2000"},{"key":"ref_2","first-page":"S257","article-title":"Peri-implant mucositis","volume":"89","author":"Salvi","year":"2018","journal-title":"J.
