The commercially pure titanium and its alloys have been widely used for the manufacture of dental and orthopedic implants due to the adequate mechanical strength, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. However, to improve the treatment with the use of implants, optimizing the osseointegration and reducing the risk of peri-implantite, new alloys, and new surface treatments have been re…
Titanium and Ti-based alloys, particularly Ti-6Al-4V, are widely accepted for the manufacture of orthopedic and dental implants due to their excellent mechanical, physical and chemical properties. However, a new generation of alloys, without aluminum and vanadium, has increased the interest in Medicine. In the oral environment, the success of the use of these alloys relies on the chemical…

The application of osseointegrated implants with modified surfaces is widely used in tooth replacement, with titanium being the most common material due to its physicochemical and biological properties capable of promoting bone formation effectively. In this context we find bioglasses such as Bioglass 45S5, which has demonstrated satisfactory osteoinductive potential, with positive result…
In the presence of body fluid, polycrystalline tetragonal zirconia (3Y-TZP) presents a transformation from the tetragonal to the monoclinic crystalline phase, with a volumetric expansion (4-5%) with an increase in tension, which can generate microcracks from the loading process that will cause the material fracture, this effect was called "Low-Temperature Hydrothermal Degradation" (LTD), …
The proposed project aims to obtain advances in the synthesis of bioactive ceramics in vitro, especially the 45S5 composition, and using an alternative source of silica extracted from biomass, especially rice husk ash, another advance proposed in the project is to carry out a silica extraction process of high purity (> 99%).The material proposed here can be used as a bone graft for bone r…
Bioglass 45S5 was the first synthetic bioactive glass used as a bone graft and with proven clinical results over the more than 45 years of its existence, in Brazil, such material is still little explored. The project aims to compare a 45S5 bioglass produced by a method called sol-gel where we have the mixture of components at the atomic level (dissolved salts) and has the great advantage …
