Abstract
The proteins and peptides are the main component of the organic matrix of human. Proteins are composed of residues of amino acids linked together by the peptide bonds and intricate vital body functions from maintaining homeostasis to preventive and therapeutic applications; and transportation, regulation of gene expression, and catalyzing intercellular and extracellular reactions. Considering the properties, proteins, and peptides have been explored for surface modifications of implant to improve the biomaterials-tissue interface and osseointegration. Therefore, an implant coating improving the osseointegration and antibacterial properties is desired. In this chapter, we have highlighted the significance of using proteins and peptides for coating dental implants and associated applications.
