objective: To investigate the effectiveness of a d-enantiomeric antibiofilm peptide (DJK-5) on the anticorrosion ability of titanium (Ti) with different surface roughness against Streptococcus mutans biofilms. methods: Commercially pure Ti disks with machined (MA, smooth) or sandblasted + acid-etched (SLA, rough) surfaces were prepared and characterized. All disks were divided into three groups: a positive control (PC) group with S. mutans, a DJK-5-treated group, and a negative control (NC) group without S. mutans. Biofilm formation and corrosion on Ti surfaces were determined by confocal laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy after 2 and 6 days, and the electrochemical properties were evaluated. results: Ten μg/mL of DJK-5 killed 83.3 % and 87.4 % of biofilms on SLA and MA Ti surfaces, respectively after 2 days, and 72.9 % and 77.7 % after 6 days, with more bacteria surviving on SLA surfaces with higher roughness (p < 0.05). DJK-5 treatment induced less surface defects with tiny pit corrosion than PC. DJK-5 treatment when compared to PC, led to electrochemical properties more reflecting NC surfaces, including significantly less negative corrosion potential, lower corrosion current, and higher passive film resistance (p < 0.05). SLA surfaces exhibited higher current density and lower resistance than MA surfaces (p < 0.05). conclusions: DJK-5 effectively enhanced the corrosion resistance of Ti with different surface roughness while killing S. mutans biofilms, and smooth surfaces were more susceptible to peptide treatment. conclusions: The antibiofilm peptide is promising for promoting the anticorrosion ability of Ti against biofilms, thereby preventing biofilm-related infections.
