To overcome the limitations of traditionally used autografts, allografts and, to a lesser extent,
synthetic materials, there is the need to develop a new generation of scaffolds with adequate …

To ensure a successful dental implant therapy, the presence of adequate vertical and
horizontal alveolar bone is fundamental. However, an insufficient amount of alveolar ridge in …

Copper is known to trigger endothelial cells towards angiogenesis. Different approaches
have been investigated to develop vascularisation in biomaterials. The angiogenic and …

Wounds in diabetic patients, especially diabetic foot ulcers, are more difficult to heal
