Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com only osteoconductivity but also osteoinductivity, has attracted much interests in the field of bone tissue engineering but not only. Indeed, the typical silicate bioactive glasses demonstrated to bond to bone more efficiently than any other synthetic materials [1]. However, it was rapidly found that the highly disrupted silica network of bioactive g...

UNLABELLED Dental cements including the glass ionomer cement (GIC) have found widespread use in restoring tooth structures. In this study, modifications of glass ionomer cements (GICs) were made by adding bioactive glass (BAG) to GIC to obtain bioactive restorative materials. This study used polarized light microscopy (PLM) to examine the remineralization effects of the study materials on denti...
