Received: 19 February 2018; Accepted: 13 March 2018; Published: 16 March 2018 Abstract: Nowadays, bioactive glasses (BGs) are mainly used to improve and support the healing process of osseous defects deriving from traumatic events, tumor removal, congenital pathologies, implant revisions, or infections. In the past, several approaches have been proposed in the replacement of extensive bone defects, each one with its own advantages and drawbacks. As a result, the need for synthetic bone grafts is still a remarkable clinical challenge since more than 1 million bone-graft surgical operations are annually performed worldwide. Moreover, recent studies show the effectiveness of BGs in the regeneration of soft tissues, too. Often, surgical criteria do not match the engineering ones and, thus, a compromise is required for getting closer to an ideal outcome in terms of good regeneration, mechanical support, and biocompatibility in contact with living tissues. The aim of the present review is providing a general overview of BGs, with particular reference to their use in clinics over the last decades and the latest synthesis/processing methods.

Hence, cermets are frequently applied in many technological fields. Among many processes which can be employed for cermet manufacturing, thermal spraying is one of the most frequently used. Conventional plasma spraying of powders is a popular and cost-effective manufacturing process. One of its most recent innovations, called solution precursor plasma spraying (SPPS), is an emerging coating deposition method which uses homogeneously mixed solution precursors as a feedstock. The technique enables a single-step deposition avoiding the powder preparation procedures. The nanostructured coatings developed by SPPS increasingly find a place in the field of surface engineering. The present review shows the recent progress in the fabrication of cermets using SPPS. The influence of starting solution precursors, such as their chemistry, concentration, and solvents used, to the micro-structural characteristics of cermet coatings is discussed. The effect of the operational plasma spray process parameters such as solution injection mode to the deposition process and coatings’ microstructure is also presented.

H. M. Alya, Nasser A. M. Barakata,b, L. Abed Alrahim Mohammedc Abstract—in this study, composite material comprised of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles incorporated with bone derived hydroxyapatite was prepared to investigate the possibility of using it as bone substitute in high load bearing sites. The structure and phase composition of the produced sintered bodies were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Densification rate was evaluated by measuring apparent porosity. A mechanical characterization of the sintered samples was carried out by means of Vickers indentations and compressive strength determinations. The bioactivity was assessed by investigating the formation of apatite on the film surface after soaking in simulated body fluid. The results showed that the proposed composite present higher densification, better mechanical characteristics compared to pure hydroxyapatite. Moreover, the results also showed bone like apatite was formed on the surface of hydroxyapatite/TiO2 nanoparticles soaked in simulated body fluid. The results obtained demonstrate that hydroxyapatite can be considered suitable as filler in biomedical applications while glass-ceramic matrix composite reinforced with titania nanostructure can be used in high load bearing applications from the point of view of the biomechnical properties. This behavior suggests a possibility of a further favorable in vivo response.

  • Coehlo P, Bromage TG. Challenges In
    Chapter 1 The Challenges in Engineering and Testing Dental Bioceramics by Paulo Coelho and Timothy G. Bromage Introduction The clinical success of modern dental ceramics is predicated on a number of factors, such as the initial physical properties of these brittle materials, the fabrication and clinical procedures that unavoidably damage them, and the oral environment. Examining how these factors influence clinical performance has involved investigators from the dental, ceramics, and engineering communities. This chapter will first summarize the rationale behind engineering biomimetic ceramic dental restorative materials, then critically describe the basic methodology and analytic results reported in recent literature. Basic Properties of Enamel and Dentin as Objectives for Bioceramic Development There are several important properties of tooth structure relevant to bioceramic biomimetic design. Paramount is (1) mechanical efficacy, largely a function of tooth crown morphology, enamel thickness and microstructure, and root structure. Related to this is (2) proprioception, the internal perceptions that allow us to reduce the probability of catastrophic fracture from excessive loads transmitted through enamel into dentine and the supporting structures. An additional consideration is (3) the porosity of healthy enamel. Further, it is fair to say that people who take their oral care seriously enough to be receiving bioceramic implants will also be concerned with (4) the aesthetics of their natural teeth. Finally, if properly managed, enamel
