Bioactive Glass Market to Gain High Usage In Orthopedics, Dentistry & Cosmeceutical Products 2018-2025
Bioactive glass is a type of bioactive materials which has a number of applications in medicine industry, especially in dentistry. In case of dental implants, bioactive glass is used as scaffolds, bone grafts and also as coating material. The bioactive glass is mainly composed of calcium, phosphorous, sodium and silicon. Bioactive glass is significantly used in tissue engineering applications owing to characteristics such as superior osteo conductivity, biocompatibility, bioactivity and biodegradability. Hydroxyapatite layer are formed when these materials are implanted in the body or soaked in stimulated body fluid.
