Abstract

Glass-ceramics of the type Bioverit can be used as implants for hard tissue (bones). The structures of four biomaterials of the type Bioverit are discussed: biocompatible machineable glass ceramics with mica crystals; bioactive machineable glass ceramics with mica and apatite crystals; bioactive phosphate glass ceramics with apatite and AlPO 4-crystals; and a new composite material. Applications of Bioverit are possible in orthopaedics, head and neck surgery and stomatology.
