The paper presents a synthesis of the laboratory research on the conditions of achieving chemical deposition of silver on oral implants made of Ti base alloy (bioalloy Ti10Zr). There were used several chemical deposition regimes in which were modified deposition parameters (temperature, stirring time) for two types of implants (different screw thread geometry). Study of the influence of deposition conditions was performed through analysis at scanning electron microscope (SEM) with EDX analyzer. The results revealed the presence of silver, microdispersed particles with morphologies and degrees of dispersion dependent on the factors and technological conditions of obtaining the chemical deposition.
