    The prevention of aseptic loosening and peri-implantitis is crucial for the success of dental implant surgery. In this study, different doses of Ag-implanted TiN/Ag nanomultilayers were prepared on the sandblasting with large grit and acid etching (SLA)-Ti surface using a multiarc ion-plating system and an ion-implantation system, respectively. The physical and chemical properties of the samples were assessed using various techniques, including scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, and water contact angle measurements. In addition, the applicability and biosafety of the SLA/1 × 1017-Ag and SLA/1 × 1018-Ag surfaces were determined via biocompatibility testing in vivo and in vitro. The results demonstrated that the physical and chemical properties of SLA/1 × 1017-Ag and SLA/1 × 1018-Ag surfaces were different to some extent. However, compared with SLA-Ti, silver-loaded TiN/Ag-modified SLA-Ti surfaces (SLA/1 × 1018-Ag) with enhanced bacteriostatis, osteogenesis, and biocompatibility have great potential for dental applications
