| Publisher Description: The global ageing society has significantly increased the need for implant materials, which not only replace damaged or lost tissue but are able to regenerate it. Bioactive glasses have been shown over several decades to bond with hard and soft tissue, release therapeutically active ions, and be capable of enhancing bone formation and regeneration. This book aims to give the material's scientist an up-to-date reference and guide for education, studies and research. |
