In light of recent events in the replacement and generation of human tissues, it is becoming extremely difficult to ignore the existence of bioceramics. Although hydroxyapatite and betatricalcium phosphate materials are frequently employed individually, they both lack certain qualities. As a result, combining hydroxyapatite and beta-tricalcium phosphate may result in the combination of their respective qualities. The current study aims to investigate the effect of using a novel nanostructure called silicene (silicon nanosheet-SiNS) on the mechanical properties of the composite ceramic (biphasic calcium p hosphate) at various ratios of hydroxyapatite and beta-tricalcium phosphate. The silicene has been synthesized and added at different weight percentages of 1, 3, and 5%. The results reveal that the compressive strength improved due to increasing the content of silicene. The average of increasing was between 58.6% and 142% because of the strong hexagonal structure of silicene. At the same time, the hardness of the biphasic calcium phosphate composite was enhanced by increasing the weight percentage of silicene. However, the hardness decreased when the content of silicene was more than 3% due to the presence of small cavities on the surface of the samples.

Synthetic scaffolds, as an alternative to allograft and xenograft scaffolds, are suitable for bone regeneration. This study aimed to synthesize a composite biomaterial of zeolite and beta-tricalcium phosphate (bTCP) to obtain a biocompatible material with physical and mechanical properties in bone regeneration. One scaffold without zeolite (bZG 0) and two scaffolds with different amounts of zeolite (bZG 1 and bZG 2) were synthesized. The scaffolds were evaluated by FTIR, XRD, compressive strength test, MTT assay, and radiographic and histological analyses. The XRD results confirmed the presence of bTCP and ZSM-5 phases in the composite scaffolds and also, indicated that the addition of gelatin decrease the crystallinity of composite scaffolds. FTIR revealed the gelatin, b-TCP and ZSM-5 functional groups in the composite structure. bZG 2 group had the maximum porosity among the scaffolds (74%) ranging in size from 61-600 mm. Compressive strength test showed that the Young's modulus changed from 23 MPa to 59 MPa, and the zeolite nanostructure was the most influential factor responsible for this change. The MTT assay showed the superiority of bZG 2, and the macroscopic and microscopic results at 4, 8, and 12 weeks revealed the maximum bone regeneration and formation of bone trabeculae in the bZG 2 and bZG 1 groups, respectively. The zeolite scaffold showed the superior mechanical, radiographic and histological properties compared with the control and non-zeolite scaffold. bTCP/ Zeolite/ Gelatin scaffold can be an appropriate candidate for medical application in bone regeneration.

Nano-size β-tricalcium phosphate powders with average grain size of 80 nm were prepared by the wet chemical precipitation method with calcium nitrate and di-ammonium hydrogen phosphate as calcium and phosphorus precursors, respectively. The precipitation process employed was also found to be suitable for the production of sub-micrometre β-TCP powder in situ. The sinterability of the nano-size powders, and the microstructure, mechanical strength of the prepared β-TCP bioceramics were investigated. Bioceramic sample characterization was achieved by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and density measurements. Powders compacted and sintered at 800, 900, 1000 and 1100 °C showed an increase in relative density from 70 % to 93 %. The results revealed that the maximum hardness of 240 HV was obtained for β-TCP sintered at 1100 °C.

Alloplastic bone substitute materials are raising some more interest as an alternative for autologic transplants and xenogenic materials especially in oral surgery over the last few years. These non-immunogenic and completely resorbable biomaterials are the basis for complete and predictable guided bone regeneration. In the majority of cases, such a material is chosen because of its convenient application by surgeons. The main objective of our project was to design and fabricate an osteoconductive, injectable and readily tolerable by human tissues biomaterial for guided bone regeneration. For this purpose, a self-setting composite consisting of chitosan/tricalcium phosphate microparticles and sodium alginate was made. The material obtained was characterized by microsphere and agglomerate morphology and microstructure. Its features relating to setting time and mechanical properties were precisely investigated. Our material was also evaluated according to PN-EN ISO 10993 Biological evaluation of medical devices, i.e., the in vitro tests for genotoxicity and cytotoxicity were conduced. Then, the following examinations were performed: subchronic systemic toxicity, skin sensitization, irritation and delayed-type hypersensitivity and local effects after implantation. The material tested showed a high degree of cytocompatibility, fulfilled the requirements of International Standards and seemed to be a "user friendly" material for oral surgeons.

Celem niniejszej pracy było zaprojektowanie i otrzymanie wstrzykiwalnego biomateriału o własnościach osteokondukcyjnych, który potencjalnie mógłby znaleźć zastosowanie w procesach augmentacji kości przed leczeniem implantologicznym z wykorzystaniem sterowanej regeneracji kości (GBR). W tym celu opracowano samoorganizujący się biomateriał otrzymany z granulatu chitozan/fosforan trójwapnia oraz soli sodowej kwasu alginowego (CH/TCP/Alg). Opracowany materiał przebadano pod względem morfologii i mikrostruktury, zarówno granulatu, jak i uformowanych aglomeratów. Własności fizyczne, takie jak czas żelowania oraz wytrzymałość mechaniczna na ściskanie były przedmiotem niniejszych badań. Przeprowadzono także testy in vivo opracowanego biomateriału na modelu szczura. Dokonano oceny odpowiedzi modelu zwierzęcego na zaimplantowany biomateriał, a wyniki porównano z alloplastycznym materiałem komercyjnie dostępnym. Otrzymane wyniki wskazały, że opracowany wstrzykiwalny system spełnia wymagania pod kątem zastosowań w sterowanej regeneracji kości.

The main objective of the work was to design and fabricate an injectable biomaterial with osteoconductive properties for bone augmentation and potential to be used in dental applications in peri-implant therapy concerning guided bone regeneration. For this purpose, a self-setting biomaterial consisting of chitosan/ tricalcium phosphate microparticles and sodium alginate was formulated (CH/TCP/Alg). The obtained material was characterized as far as microsphere and formed agglomerates morphology and microstructure. Physical properties relating to setting time and mechanical properties were also investigated. Finally, in vivo response to implanted biomaterial was studied on rat model and compared with commercially available alloplastic material.
