Description

In recent decades, there has been a shift from the idea of using biomaterials as passive substitutes for damaged bones towards the concept of biomaterials as aids for the regeneration of a host’s own bone tissue. This has resulted in an important field of research and a range of technological developments. This book provides a comprehensive review of the biomaterials available and how they can be applied in bone regeneration.

In part one, a wide range of materials are discussed, including calcium phosphate cements, hydrogels, biopolymers, synthetic polymers and shape memory polymers. Part two then turns to the processing and surface modification of biomaterials, as well as discussing how biomaterials can be evaluated both for their mechanical properties and for immunocompatibility with the host. Finally, part three covers a variety of cellular approaches and production and delivery of biomaterials for bone regeneration. Chapters also consider the potential of electromagnetic and ultrasonic stimulation of biomaterials to aid in the regenerative process.

Biomaterials for bone regeneration will be an important resource for academics, clinicians and industry professionals working in the area of biomedical materials, and will provide them with both an overview of the current state-of-the-art, and an indication of potential future developments.

Provides comprehensive coverage of novel materials, techniques and applications of biomaterials for bone regenerationProvides vital information on the various types of materials used in bone regenerationDiscusses processing, modification and evaluation techniques of biomaterials and looks at cellular approaches and stimulation of biomaterials for bone regeneration
