“…13 Furthermore, research and development in academic communities and companies show increasing trends in the number of published papers and patents in this field, as summarized in Figure 1(a,b). Previous review papers, book chapters [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32] and, more recently, Gracis et al 33 have classified dental ceramics into the following three groups: (1) glass-matrix ceramics, (2) polycrystalline ceramics, and (3) resin-matrix ceramics. In other words, these materials are classified according to whether a glass-matrix phase is present or absent, or whether the material contains an organic matrix that is highly filled with ceramic particles.…”

[15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] Dental glass-ceramics belong to the family of glass-matrix ceramics, and we have decided to divide them into the two subfamilies of bioactive and restorative dental glass-ceramics. Bioactive dental glass-ceramics (BDGCs) are materials that show bone/tooth bonding ability and stimulate a particular biological reaction at the material/tissue interface.…”

The global market for dental materials is predicted to exceed 10 billion dollars by 2020. The main drivers for this growth are easing the workflow of dentists and increasing the comfort of patients. Therefore, remarkable research projects have been conducted and are currently underway to develop improved or new dental materials with enhanced properties or that can be processed using advanced technologies, such as CAD/CAM or 3D printing. Among these materials, zirconia, glass or polymer-infiltrated ceramics, and glass-ceramics (GCs) are of great importance. Dental glass-ceramics are highly attractive because they are easy to process and have outstanding esthetics, translucency, low thermal conductivity, high strength, chemical durability, biocompatibility, wear resistance, and hardness similar to that of natural teeth, and, in certain cases, these materials are bioactive. In this review article, we divide dental GCs into the following two groups: restorative and bioactive. Most restorative dental glass-ceramics (RDGCs) are inert and biocompatible and are used in the restoration and reconstruction of teeth. Bioactive dental glass-ceramics (BDGCs) display bone-bonding ability and stimulate positive biological reactions at the material/tissue interface. BDGCs are suggested for dentin hypersensitivity treatment, implant coating, bone regeneration and periodontal therapy. Throughout this paper, we elaborate on the history, processing, properties and applications of RDGCs and BDGCs. We also report on selected papers that address promising types of dental glass-ceramics. Finally, we include trends and guidance on relevant open issues and research possibilities. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Biomed Mater Res Part A: 105A: 619-639, 2017.

“…In addition to studies of specific effects of BGs and MBGs in bone regeneration and angiogenesis, several reports have focused on the antibacterial properties of BG materials, resulting from their dissolution and release of ions in solution, for the treatment or prevention of periodontal infections . For example, Ag 2 O‐doped BG microparticles can be synthesized by sol‐gel method and used not only as bacteriostatic but also as bactericidal material .…”

“…In addition to the use of 3D scaffolds, the possibility of using granules or particles to fill and repair small defects in a rapid and controllable way has been thoroughly investigated by orthopedic surgeons and dentists. Released in 1993 for the repair of jaw defects in periodontal diseases, Perioglass® (now sold by NovaBone Products LCC, Alachua, FL) was the first microparticulate 45S5 BG product to avoid the resorption of alveolar bone in the jaw after tooth removal or to sterilize the root canal before anchoring the new implants . In recent years, significant efforts have been directed toward the investigation of BG NPs produced primarily by flame synthesis or a sol‐gel process.…”

To improve treatments for bone or dental trauma, and for diseases such as osteoporosis, cancer, and infections, scientists who perform basic research are collaborating with clinicians to design and test new biomaterials for the regeneration of lost or injured tissue. Developed some 40 years ago, bioactive glass (BG) has recently become one of the most promising biomaterials, a consequence of discoveries that its unusual properties elicit specific biological responses inside the body. Among these important properties are the capability of BG to form strong interfaces with both hard and soft tissues, and its release of ions upon dissolution. Recent developments in nanotechnology have introduced opportunities for materials sciences to advance dental and bone therapies. For example, the applications for BG expand as it becomes possible to finely control structures and physicochemical properties of materials at the molecular level. Here we review how the properties of these materials have been enhanced by the advent of nanotechnology; and how these developments are producing promising results in hard-tissue regeneration and development of innovative BG-based drug-delivery systems.

Resumen: Para la mejora de los tratamientos de traumas dentales u óseos y diferentes enfermedades, como pueden ser la osteoporosis, el cáncer o distintas infecciones, los científicos se esfuerzan en colaborar conjuntamente con médicos para poder diseñar y probar nuevos biomateriales para la regeneración del tejido perdido o dañado. Desarrollado hace más de 50 años, el vidrio bioactivo (BG, por sus siglas en inglés) empieza a ser recientemente uno de los biomateriales más prometedores del panorama científico, como consecuencia del descubrimiento de inusuales propiedades que provocan respuestas biológicas específicas en el cuerpo. Entre estas importantes propiedades está la capacidad del BG de formar fuertes interacciones, tanto con tejidos blandos como con los duros, así como el proceso de liberación de iones en la disolución. Desarrollos recientes en nanotecnología han introducido nuevas oportunidades para la ciencia de materiales, aplicados a terapias dentales y óseas de diferentes tipos. Por ejemplo, las aplicaciones para el BG se expanden a medida que es posible controlar con mayor precisión las estructuras producidas con él y las propiedades fisicoquímicas del propio material a nivel molecular. En la presente publicación se hace un estudio de cómo las propiedades de estos materiales han sido mejoradas con la llegada de la nanotecnología, y cómo estos avances están produciendo resultados realmente prometedores basado en el BG.
