Bioactive Glasses

Bioactive Glasses is a class of surface‑reactive, typically silica‑based glass or glass‑ceramic biomaterial that, when implanted in physiological environments, undergoes controlled ionic dissolution leading to the formation of a biologically active hydroxyapatite layer that bonds to bone and related tissues and thereby supports their regeneration.
