Bone tissue engineering has attracted great interest in the last few years, as the frequency of
tissue-damaging or degenerative diseases has increased exponentially. To obtain an ideal …

Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) was developed in Japan in the 1960s. It is used to control early
childhood caries, arrest root caries, prevent fissure caries and secondary caries, desensitise …

Unlike other fluoride-based caries preventive agents, silver diamine fluoride (SDF) can
simultaneously prevent and arrest coronal and root dentine caries. The profound clinical …

High-performance bioceramics are required for preventing failure and prolonging the life-
time of bone grafting scaffolds and osseous implants. The proper identification and …

Copper substituted hydroxyapatite (Ca 10− x Cu x (PO 4) 6 (OH) 2 (x= 0.05–2.0), and
fluorapatite Ca 10− x Cu x (PO 4) 6 (F) 2 (x= 0.05–2.0) were synthesized by co-precipitation …

Good hemocompatibility and cell compatibility are essential requirements for coronary
stents, especially for biodegradable magnesium alloy stents, which could change the in situ …

The majority of failures in prosthetic implants and devices are caused by infections.
Microbial infections are one of the major causes of these failures. The present article reviews …

Dental caries is one of the most common human diseases which can occur in both primary
and permanent dentitions throughout the life of an individual. Hydroxyapatite is the major …

Natural bone healing is often inadequate to treat fractures with critical size bone defects and
massive bone loss. Immediate surgical interventions through bone grafts have been found to …

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanocrystals as the main inorganic component in hard tissue have
