Journal ArticleDOI
Bioactive glass scaffolds for bone tissue engineering: state of the art and future perspectives
TL;DR: The review reveals the fact that mechanical strength is not a real limiting factor in the use of bioactive glass scaffolds for bone repair, an observation not often recognized by most researchers and clinicians.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Bioactive Glasses on Angiogenesis: A Review of In Vitro and In Vivo Evidences
TL;DR: The literature discussing in vitro studies which have demonstrated that increases in angiogenic indicators have been achieved through both direct and indirect contact of relevant cells with 45S5 Bioglass((R)) particles or with their dissolution products are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the mechanical behavior of CaP and CaP/polymer composites for applications in bone replacement and repair.
TL;DR: The real limitation for CaPs appears not to be strength necessarily, but toughness and reliability, which are rarely characterized, so research should focus on novel ways of toughening CaPs.
