In this study, six groups of modified ceramic specimens were constructed and were studied comparatively with dental porcelain (P:control) for their ability to support human periodontal ligament fibroblasts attachment and proliferation. The dental porcelain was initially coated with bioactive glass (PCB) or with a mixture of porcelain and bioactive glass (PCBP) and then calcium-phosphate rich (Ca-P) or hydroxy-carbonate apatite (HCAp) layers were bio-mimetically developed on both surfaces (PCB and PCBP) after immersion in simulated body fluid. The development and characterization of Ca-P and HCAp layers on PCBCa-P, PCBHCAp, PCBPCa-P, PCBPHCAp specimens' surfaces were evaluated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and further confirmed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The modified ceramics differed from their controls concerning their surface morphology as evaluated by SEM, and their surface chemical composition (Al, P, Si, Ca, Na and K) as evaluated by Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). Almost all modified specimens supported cell attachment, spreading and proliferation at higher extent than the control porcelain specimens. The additional layers of Ca-P or HCAp on PCBP and PCB specimens were found to positively affect cell attachment and proliferation. The highest cell population, of all specimens tested, was observed on PCBPCa-P and PCBPHCAp. The Ca-P particles present on all Ca-P and HCAp coated specimens seemed to be involved in cell adhesion.
