摘要

By obtaining detailed and comprehensive knowledge about the internal processes of the body, it becomes possible to utilize bone tissue engineering to create implants and biological materials that possess distinct and suitable characteristics. The crucial characteristics for developing a bone tissue engineering device using bioceramics include the capacity to integrate with bone tissue (osteointegration), stimulate the growth of new bone cells (osteoinductivity), osteoconductivity, be compatible with living tissue (biocompatibility), break down naturally over time (biodegradability), and promote the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis). Osteoconduction is the process when an extracellular response is specifically activated on the surface of a material. On the other hand, osteoinduction can be initiated by a chemical that induces reactions both outside and inside the cells at the interface between the tissue and the cell. Biodegradable and porous scaffolds play a crucial role in tissue engineering. Furthermore, it is imperative to employ supplementary methodologies to promote the development of fresh blood vessels to ensure the long-lasting nature of substantial tissue-engineered constructs. Incorporating antibacterial properties into the material might be a highly advantageous characteristic in the design of these materials. Various strategies employed to prevent infections associated with implants included the administration of perioperative systemic antibiotics, implementation of sterile procedures, and conducting surgeries in a controlled and antiseptic environment. The deposition of an apatite layer on the active surface of certain ceramics improves the chemical interaction with adjacent tissues. Various techniques can be employed to generate these coatings. Furthermore, the significance of nanotechnology in the advancement of these materials must not be overlooked. These features are elucidated in this chapter.
