HARDENING OF β-TRICALCIUM PHOSPHATE MECHANICALLY TREATED BY MORTAR GRINDER

Fabrication of Poly(ε-Caprolactone), Hydrophilic and β-Tricalcium Phosphate Layer- by -Layer Nanofibrous Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering

In this study, using biodegradable polymers, nanofiberouse scaffolds were fabricated from the layer-by-layer electrospinning method, including two layer that poly (ε-caprolactone), polyvinylpyrrolidone deposited at first layer and poly (ε-caprolactone), polyvinyl alcohol , β-tricalcium phosphate at latter. After prepration of scaffolds, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), swelling, porosity, me...

A New Mixture of Nano-structure of Potassium-incorporated Hydroxyapatite/β-tricalcium Phosphate/calcium Pyrophosphate

The new triphasic potassium−substituted hydroxyapatite (KHAP), β−tricalcium phosphate (β−TCP), and calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) proportions using easy sol−gel method were synthesized. The prepared powders was characterized by X–ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), Differential thermal behavior (DTA) analysis, Energy Dispersive X–ray Analysis (EDXA), and Brunauer–Emmett–Telle...

Minimally Invasive Alveolar Ridge Preservation Utilizing an In Situ Hardening β-Tricalcium Phosphate Bone Substitute: A Multicenter Case Series

Ridge preservation measures, which include the filling of extraction sockets with bone substitutes, have been shown to reduce ridge resorption, while methods that do not require primary soft tissue closure minimize patient morbidity and decrease surgical time and cost. In a case series of 10 patients requiring single extraction, in situ hardening beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) granules coate...

Chemical stability of grain boundaries in β-tricalcium phosphate ceramics

Hydrogen-substituted β-tricalcium phosphate synthesized in organic media

β-Tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) platelets synthesized in ethylene glycol offer interesting geometries for nano-structured composite bone substitutes but were never crystallographically analyzed. In this study, powder X-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement revealed a discrepancy between the platelet structure and the known β-TCP crystal model. In contrast, a model featuring partial H for Ca su...
