Biomedical Thermodynamics and Implantology Aspects of Biocompatible Glass-Ceramics and Otherwise Modified Inorganic Materials and Surfaces

Article Preview

Abstract:

Some historical and recent attitudes aimed to bioactive inorganic materials are reviewed. The theory of bridging and non-bridging oxygen is reconsidered as well as the acid and alkali treatment of titanium surface necessary to achieve a good osteointegration. Some theoretical models to characterize mechanical properties are also reviewed.
