The efficient healing of critical-sized bone defects using synthetic biomaterial-based
strategies is promising but remains challenging as it requires the development of …

Reconstruction of extensive bone defects remains technically challenging and has
considerable medical and financial impact on our society. Surgical procedures often require …

Biodegradable polymer-ceramic composites are attractive systems for bone tissue
engineering applications. These composites have the combined advantages of the …

Bioactive glasses are silica‐based, surface‐active bone substitutes that have shown good
biocompatibility both in bone and in soft tissue and are used in oral and maxillofacial bone …

Highly bioactive scaffolds for tissue engineering were synthesized using a glass belonging
to the SiO 2-CaO-K 2 O (SCK) system. The glass SCK was prepared by a traditional melting …

The aim of our study was to investigate the influence of four bone substitutes on the growth
behavior of a human osteoblast‐like cell line (SaOS‐2) culture: pure alpha tricalcium …
