The synthesis of a new resorbable porous bioactive silica-calcium phosphate composite (SCPC) that can be used as a tissue-engineering scaffold for bone regeneration is described. The effects of chemical composition and thermal treatment on crystallization and the mechanism of phase transformation in SCPC were evaluated. In the silica-rich samples, beta-rhenanite (beta-NaCaPO(4)) and alpha-crist...

statement of problem: in order to increase the performance of glass ionomer cement, it is reinforced with metal powders, short fibers, bioceramics and other materials. fluoroapatite (ca10 (po4 )6 f2 ) is found in dental enamel and is usually used in dental materials due to its good chemical and physical properties. objectives: in this study, the effects of the addition of synthesized fluoroapat...

This paper presents a case series of furcation involved teeth complicated with endodontic involvement which were treated with periodontal, endodontic and restorative procedures using different bone regenerative materials like; (a) Calcium phosphosilicate bone substitute having bioactive glass 69% mixed with glycerin 19% and poly-ethylene 12% dispensed in a putty form; (b) hydroxyapatite 70% and...

General structure and properties Glass-ionomer cements were developed by Wilson and McLean at the Laboratory of the Government Chemist in England in 196527. They were a logical addition to the family of water-based dental cements, comprising silicate cement, zinc phosphate cement and zinc polycarboxylate cement. Since their commercial introduction, they are now available in essentially two type...

to evaluate the tolerance and effectiveness of conjugated estrogen for women with established post-menopausal osteoporosis and hot flushes, with the use of paired comparison, randomized, we tested during an 10 month period the bone mineral contents and plasma glucose in subjects who afforded by premarin in dosages of 0.625 mg for days 1 to 25 and oral medroxy progesterone acetate for days 15 to...

Thermostable heat-insulating composite materials based on solid magnesium phosphate and calcium binders, fly-ash glass hollow microspheres have been developed proposed. Thermal phase transformations studied as well strength characteristics of the initial composites products their thermal treatment up to 1000 °C determined. It is shown that prepared are thermally stable in temperature range 20 –...

Over the past decades, bioactive glass (BG) has been of a great interest in the bone regeneration field, due to its excellent biocompatibility, bioactivity and osteoconductivity. Herein, fabrication of bioactive glass as one-dimensional fibers by employing an Electrospinning process is reported. The Sol-Gel method was chosen considering the final fibers smoothness and homogeneity. Starting sol ...
