Objectives The polyester/hydroxyapatite (polyester/HA) composites play an important role in
bone tissue repairing, mostly because they mimic the composition and structure of naturally …

Titanium (Ti) and its alloys are commonly used implant materials in orthopedics due to their
good corrosion resistance, mechanical properties, and biocompatibility. However, the …

Protein adsorption has a central role in the outcome of implants. However, there is no
consensus about the impact of the different surface properties on the material-protein …

A promising approach for advanced bone implants is the deposition on titanium surfaces of
organic thin films with improved therapeutic performances. Herein, we reported the efficient …

This work aimed to optimize, produce and characterize Cu-doped bioactive glasses which
are antibacterial without the addition of antibiotics obtained via ion exchange in an aqueous …

Bioactive glasses (BGs) are promising for bone tissue regeneration. BG composition can be
tailored, according to the application of interest, and/or functionalized with organic …

The focus of the paper is on effectiveness of a functionalization process with natural
polyphenols on a chemically treated and bioactive Ti6Al4V alloy, on the grafting mechanism …

In the present study, the effects of variable amounts of Yb addition on the structural, thermal,
and in vitro biocompatibility properties of Ce-doped hydroxyapatite (HAp) samples …

Two bioactive glasses were coated with chitosan: SCNB belongs to the SiO 2-CaO-Na 2 O
system, and SCNA has the addition of Al 2 O 3 to enhance chemical stability. Different …

Grasping the boundary of antibacterial function may be better for the sealing of soft tissue
around dental implant abutment. Inspired by 'overdone is worse than undone', we prepared …
