Bioactive Glasses and Glass-Ceramics Fundamentals and Applications

A Comprehensive and Critical Overview of Bioactive Glasses and Glass-Ceramics

Bioactive glasses and glass-ceramics are a versatile class of biocompatible materials that have an astonishing impact in biomedicine. Bioactive Glasses and Glass-Ceramics: Fundamentals and Applications presents topics on the functional properties, processing, and applications of bioactive glasses and glass-ceramics.

The primary use of bioactive glasses and glass-ceramics is to repair bone and dental defects; however, their full potential is yet to be fulfilled. Many of today’s achievements in regenerative medicine and soft tissue healing were unthinkable when research began. As a result, the research involving bioactive glasses and glass-ceramics is highly stimulating and continuously progresses across many different disciplines including chemistry, materials science, bioengineering, biology, and medicine. Topics relating to these disciplines and covered within the work include:

  • Fundamentals on bioactive glasses and glass-ceramics, bioactive glasses in today’s market, and improvements and challenges for the future
  • Scalability and other issues when taking bioactive glass from lab to industry/commercialization applications, plus clinical challenges
  • Trending topics such as bioactive glass porous scaffolds, additive manufacturing of bioactive glasses, and nano-engineering of bioactive glasses
  • The various bioactive glass compositions which have been developed as medical products in an expanding range of forms and applications

Bioactive Glasses and Glass-Ceramics: Fundamentals and Applications serves as a comprehensive and complete reference work on bioactive glasses and glass-ceramics for research and development (R&D) materials scientists, surgeons, and physicians, and leadership at glass and medical companies. Students and professors in fields of study pertaining to the aforementioned disciplines will also derive value from the work.
