| Summary: | Bioactive glasses are often used nanomaterials in tissue engineering of bone and soft tissue. Many newly synthesized materials for applications in medicine and dentistry are based on these bioactive substances. Bioactive glass is usually used as a scaffold or as an implant coating on implants and it allows fast formation of apatite layer with positive effect on osteoblasts proliferation. These biomaterials play an important role in dentistry and endodontics. This study is mostly part of the monograph titled 'Nanomedicine, the Greatest Challenge of the 21st Century', that for two years has received attention from professional and scientific community in various fields. Information presented in this paper highlight structural characteristics of bioactive glasses that have a significant role in bone tissue engineering. |
