In vitro biocompatibility assessment of PHBV/Wollastonite composites

open access: yesJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2007
Biodegradable and biocompatible materials are the basis for tissue engineering. As an initial step for developing bone tissue engineering scaffolds, the in vitro biocompatibility of degradable and bioactive composites consisting of polyhydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate (PHBV) and wollastonite (W) was studied by culturing osteoblasts on the PHBV/W ...

Alveolar Bone Regeneration: Smart Biomaterials and Physical Stimulation

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 114, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Large‐area bone loss from disease, trauma, or congenital defects requires surgical procedures and bone grafting. Alveolar bone loss from severe periodontal disease and non‐unions often demands immediate grafting. Treating large alveolar bone defects using grafts and substitutes is challenging due to the complex oral environment, infection ...
