Implant-associated infection (IAI) is increasingly emerging as a serious threat with the
massive application of biomaterials. Bacteria attached to the surface of implants are often …

Unlike orthopedic implants, dental implants require the orchestration of both
osseointegration at the bone-implant interface and soft-tissue integration at the …

The regeneration of bone tissue is the main purpose of most therapies in dental medicine.
For bone regeneration, calcium phosphate (CaP)-based substitute materials based on …

This article provides an overview on the application of metallic ions in the fields of
regenerative medicine and tissue engineering, focusing on their therapeutic applications …

Improving the ability of implants to integrate with natural bone tissue at the initial stage of
implantation remains a huge challenge because bone-to-implant interfaces are often …

Tribo-electrochemical behavior in physiological solution of two β-type (100-x)(Ti-45Nb)-xGa
