Abstract
In the last five decades, there have been vast advances in the field of biomaterials, including ceramics, glasses, glass-ceramics and metal alloys. Dense and porous ceramics have been widely used for various biomedical applications. Current applications of bioceramics include bone grafts, spinal fusion, bone repairs, bone fillers, maxillofacial reconstruction, etc. Amongst the various calcium phosphate compositions, hydroxyapatite, which has a composition similar to human bone, has attracted wide interest. Much emphasis is given to tissue engineering, both in porous and dense ceramic forms. The current review focusses on the various applications of dense hydroxyapatite and other dense biomaterials on the aspects of transparency and the mechanical and electrical behavior. Prospective future applications, established along the aforesaid applications of hydroxyapatite, appear to be promising regarding bone bonding, advanced medical treatment methods, improvement of the mechanical strength of artificial bone grafts and better in vitro/in vivo methodologies to afford more particular outcomes.

Abstract
Various types of grafts have been traditionally used to restore damaged bones. In the late 1960s, a strong interest was raised in studying ceramics as potential bone grafts due to their biomechanical properties. A bit later, such synthetic biomaterials were called bioceramics. In principle, bioceramics can be prepared from diverse materials but this review is limited to calcium orthophosphate-based formulations only, which possess the specific advantages due to the chemical similarity to mammalian bones and teeth. During the past 40 years, there have been a number of important achievements in this field. Namely, after the initial development of bioceramics that was just tolerated in the physiological environment, an emphasis was shifted towards the formulations able to form direct chemical bonds with the adjacent bones. Afterwards, by the structural and compositional controls, it became possible to choose whether the calcium orthophosphate-based implants remain biologically stable once incorporated into the skeletal structure or whether they were resorbed over time. At the turn of the millennium, a new concept of regenerative bioceramics was developed and such formulations became an integrated part of the tissue engineering approach. Now calcium orthophosphate scaffolds are designed to induce bone formation and vascularization. These scaffolds are often porous and harbor different biomolecules and/or cells. Therefore, current biomedical applications of calcium orthophosphate bioceramics include bone augmentations, artificial bone grafts, maxillofacial reconstruction, spinal fusion, periodontal disease repairs and bone fillers after tumor surgery. Perspective future applications comprise drug delivery and tissue engineering purposes because calcium orthophosphates appear to be promising carriers of growth factors, bioactive peptides and various types of cells.

Abstract
Setting properties of bone substitutes are improved using an injectable system. The injectable bone graft substitutes can be molded to the shape of the bone cavity and set in situ when injected. Such system is useful for surgical operation. The powder part of the injectable bone cement is included of β-tricalcium phosphate, calcium carbonate, and dicalcium phosphate and the liquid part contains poly ethylene glycol solution with different concentrations. In this way, prediction of the mechanical properties, setting times, and injectability helps to optimize the calcium phosphate bone cement properties. The objective of this study is development of three different adaptive neurofuzzy inference systems (ANFISs) for estimation of compression strength, setting time, and injectability using the data generated based on experimental observations. The input parameters of models are polyethylene glycol percent and liquid/powder ratio. Comparison of the predicted values and measured data indicates that the ANFIS model has an acceptable performance to the estimation of calcium phosphate bone cement properties.

Abstract
ABSTRACTIn situ mineralization of hydroxyapatite (HAP) and the role of organics in initial nucleation and growth of HAP is critical for the resulting nano and microstructure of HAP. In situ mineralization of hydroxyapatite (HAP) in the presence of Ca binding polymers such as polyacrylic acid has shown some promise towards improvement of mechanical response of uniaxial compressed HAP/polymer composites to loading. This work represents fundamental studies on the nature of in situ HAP precipitation on resulting microstructure of the composite and bulk mechanical properties. Specifically, an experimental study, evaluating the role of initial stage mineralization of HAP on bulk mechanical responses is conducted. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopic (with micro attenuated total reflectance) techniques are utilized to evaluate the association of polymer (polyacrylic acid) with HAP during mineralization of HAP. In situ HAP exhibits a faster mineralization as compared to the ex situ mineralization samples, This improved kinetics is responsible for altering the resulting micro and nanostructure of the HAP/polymer composite. Small spectral changes are detected in the absorbance spectra of in situ HAP as compared to ex situ samples. Changes in mechanical response to loading included improvement in strain-to-failure and resulting toughness characteristics of the in situ composite. The control and development of molecular-level associations of polymer with HAP is suggested to be critical for the resulting macro properties. Our results may have significant implications for design of nanocomposites for biomedical applications.

In the late 1960s, much interest was raised in regard to biomedical applications of various ceramic materials. A little bit later, such materials were named bioceramics. This review is limited to bioceramics prepared from calcium orthophosphates only, which belong to the categories of bioactive and bioresorbable compounds. There have been a number of important advances in this field during the past 30-40 years. Namely, by structural and compositional control, it became possible to choose whether calcium orthophosphate bioceramics were biologically stable once incorporated within the skeletal structure or whether they were resorbed over time. At the turn of the millennium, a new concept of calcium orthophosphate bioceramics-which is able to promote regeneration of bones-was developed. Presently, calcium orthophosphate bioceramics are available in the form of particulates, blocks, cements, coatings, customized designs for specific applications and as injectable composites in a polymer carrier. Current biomedical applications include artificial replacements for hips, knees, teeth, tendons and ligaments, as well as repair for periodontal disease, maxillofacial reconstruction, augmentation and stabilization of the jawbone, spinal fusion and bone fillers after tumor surgery. Exploratory studies demonstrate potential applications of calcium orthophosphate bioceramics as scaffolds, drug delivery systems, as well as carriers of growth factors, bioactive peptides and/or various types of cells for tissue engineering purposes.

Abstract
By mimicking Nature, we can design and synthesize inorganic smart materials that are reactive to biological tissues. These smart materials can be utilized to design innovative third-generation biomaterials, which are able to not only optimize their interaction with biological tissues and environment, but also mimic biogenic materials in their functionalities. The biomedical applications involve increasing the biomimetic levels from chemical composition, structural organization, morphology, mechanical behavior, nanostructure, and bulk and surface chemical-physical properties until the surface becomes bioreactive and stimulates cellular materials. The chemical-physical characteristics of biogenic hydroxyapatites from bone and tooth have been described, in order to point out the elective sides, which are important to reproduce the design of a new biomimetic synthetic hydroxyapatite. This review outlines the evolving applications of biomimetic synthetic calcium phosphates, details the main characteristics of bone and tooth, where the calcium phosphates are present, and discusses the chemical-physical characteristics of biomimetic calcium phosphates, methods of synthesizing them, and some of their biomedical applications.

Abstract
Silica-calcium phosphate nanocomposite (SCPC) is a bioactive ceramic characterized by superior bone regenerative capacity and resorbability when compared to traditional bioactive ceramics. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of processing parameters on the microstructure and mechanical properties of SCPC. Cylinders were prepared by pressing the ceramic powder at 200, 300 or 400 MPa and sintering at 900, 1000 or 1100 degrees C for 3 h, respectively. XRD results indicate that the crystalline structure of the material is made of beta-NaCaPO(4) and alpha-cristobalite solid solutions. The increase in sintering temperature results in an increase in the grain size and the formation of a melting phase that coats the grains. TEM analyses reveal that the melting phase is amorphous and rich in silicon. The mechanical properties of SCPC cylinders are dependent on the content of the melting phase and the microstructure of the material. The ranges of compressive strength and modulus of elasticity of the SCPC are 62-204 MPa and 6-14 GPa, respectively, which are comparable to those of cortical bone. The results suggest that the interaction between crystalline and amorphous phases modulated the mechanical behavior of SCPC. It is possible to engineer the mechanical properties of SCPC by controlling the processing parameters to synthesize various fixation devices for orthopedic and cranio-maxillofacial applications.

Abstract
A novel freeze-gel casting/polymer sponge technique has been introduced to fabricate porous hydroxyapatite scaffolds with controlled "designer" pore structures and improved compressive strength for bone tissue engineering applications. Tertiary-butyl alcohol (TBA) was used as a solvent in this work. The merits of each production process, freeze casting, gel casting, and polymer sponge route were characterized by the sintered microstructure and mechanical strength. A reticulated structure with large pore size of 180-360 microm, which formed on burn-out of polyurethane foam, consisted of the strut with highly interconnected, unidirectional, long pore channels (approximately 4.5 microm in dia.) by evaporation of frozen TBA produced in freeze casting together with the dense inner walls with a few, isolated fine pores (<2 microm) by gel casting. The sintered porosity and pore size generally behaved in an opposite manner to the solid loading, i.e., a high solid loading gave low porosity and small pore size, and a thickening of the strut cross section, thus leading to higher compressive strengths.

Abstract
Synthesis of a porous bioactive ceramic implant for load bearing applications is a challenging task in maxillofacial and orthopedic surgeries. A novel bioactive resorbable silica-calcium phosphate nanocomposite (SCPC) has recently been introduced as a potential bone graft. In the present study, we employed SCPC to develop a resorbable porous scaffold and analyzed the effects of composition and porosity on the mechanical properties. The ranges of compressive strength and modulus of elasticity of SCPC containing 32-56% porosity were 1.5-50 MPa and 0.14-2.1 GPa, respectively, which matched the corresponding values for trabecular bone. The compressive strength of dense SCPC was dependent on the Si content and acquired values (93-285 MPa) comparable to that of cortical bone. The superior mechanical properties of SCPC are attributed to the intricate interactions at the boundaries of the nanograins and to the homogenous distribution of hierarchical pore-structure throughout the material volume. X-ray computed tomography and mercury porosimetry analyses revealed high interconnectivity of the pores in the size range 3 nm to 650 microm. Quantitative real-time PCR analyses showed that neonatal rat calvarial osteoblasts attached to Si-rich SCPC expressed 5- and 26-fold higher osteocalcin mRNA levels compared to cells attached to ProOsteon hydroxyapatite disks and tissue culture polystyrene plates respectively, after four days in culture. Results of the present study strongly suggest that porous, bioactive resorbable SCPCs can serve as tissue engineering scaffolds for cell delivery to treat load-bearing bone defects in orthopedic and maxillofacial surgeries.

Abstract
Structural and thermodynamic properties of crystal hexagonal calcium apatites, Ca10(PO4)6(X)2 (X = OH, F, Cl, Br), were investigated using an all-atom Born-Huggins-Mayer potential by a molecular dynamics technique. The accuracy of the model at room temperature and atmospheric pressure was checked against crystal structural data, with maximum deviations of ca. 4% for the haloapatites and 8% for hydroxyapatite. The standard molar lattice enthalpy, delta(lat)H298(o), of the apatites was calculated and compared with previously published experimental results, the agreement being better than 2%. The molar heat capacity at constant pressure, C(p,m), in the range 298-1298 K, was estimated from the plot of the molar enthalpy of the crystal as a function of temperature, H(m) = (H(m,298) - 298C(p,m)) + C(p,m)T, yielding C(p,m) = 694 +/- 68 J x mol(-1) x K(-1), C(p,m) = 646 +/- 26 J x mol(-1) x K(-1), C(p,m) = 530 +/- 34 J x mol(-1) x K(-1), and C(p,m) = 811 +/- 42 J x mol(-1) x K(-1) for hydroxy-, fluor-, chlor-, and bromapatite, respectively. High-pressure simulation runs, in the range 0.5-75 kbar, were performed in order to estimate the isothermal compressibility coefficient, kappaT, of those compounds. The deformation of the compressed solids is always elastically anisotropic, with BrAp exhibiting a markedly different behavior from those displayed by HOAp and ClAp. High-pressure p-V data were fitted to the Parsafar-Mason equation of state with an accuracy better than 1%.

Abstract
Iron is a vital element of cellular function within the body. High concentrations of iron can be found in the kidneys and the circulatory system. In bones and teeth it is present as a trace element. The use of iron-based compounds in combination with hydroxyapatite offers a new alternative for prosthetic devices. This work investigates the synthesis and processing of iron containing apatites as a possible new type of ceramic for biomedical devices. Stoichiometric and calcium deficient iron containing apatites were synthesized by a wet chemical reaction with di-ammonium-hydrogen-phosphate, calcium nitrate and a ferrous iron nitrate solution. A secondary phase of tri-calcium-phosphate (TCP) was observed after heat treatment of iron containing, calcium deficient, hydroxyapatite. The apatite structure was maintained after heat treatment of stoichiometric apatite, synthesized in the presence of iron. Sintering in air produced oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+, resulting in the formation of hematite as a secondary phase. The introduction of iron into the synthesis of hydroxyapatite causes: (i) an increase of the a-lattice parameter after synthesis and heat treatment in air; (ii) an increase in the c-lattice parameter after sintering in air.

Abstract
Amorphous carbonated hydroxyapatite was prepared by rapid mixing of aqueous solutions of a continuous computer-controlled reactor. The variation of the carbonate content in the solid product is possible by adjustment of the ratios of phosphate to carbonate in the initial solution. The principal reaction parameters (temperature, pH, stirrer speed, solution composition and supersaturation) are controlled and monitored. By controlling these processing parameters, a non-stoichiometric hydroxyapatite with fine-tuned crystallinity, morphology, and carbonate content can be reproducibly prepared. The higher solubility under the conditions of osteoclastic resorption was tested in vitro at constant pH (4.4).

Abstract
A perfect control on the final ceramic features will enable the research/clinical community to spread the use of calcium phosphate ceramic bodies to a large number of applications and/or requirements. The mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite ceramic bodies manufactured by different techniques and with different porosities is presented. The flexural strength, hardness, fracture toughness, surface roughness, and their evolution after immersion in SBF are studied. An increase of the mechanical properties with density is observed. The factors governing these results are analyzed. The increase of the porosity percentage of the bodies results in an increase on the surface roughness. The degradation studies show that the HA ceramics keep their integrity and mechanical properties under physiological conditions during the soaking time studied. The OHAp ceramic bodies with controlled porosity could be appropriated for hard tissue substitution or as a carriers for controlled delivery of drugs or as scaffolds for tissue engineering.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite/solgel glass biphasic material has been obtained in order to improve the bioactivity of the hydroxyapatite (OHAp). A mixture of stoichiometric OHAp and the precursor gel of a solgel glass, with nominal composition in mol% CaO-26, SiO2-70, P205-4, has been prepared. The amounts of components used have been selected to obtain a final relationship for OHAp/solgel glass of 60/40 on heating. Two different thermal treatments have been used: (i) 700 degrees C, temperature of solgel glass stabilisation and (ii) 1000 degrees C, lower temperature of hydroxyapatite sintering. The bioactivity of the resulting materials has been examined in vitro by immersion in simulated body fluid at 37 degrees C. The results obtained show that both materials are bioactive. The apatite-like layer grown is greater for the new materials than for the OHAp and the solgel glass themselves.

Abstract
Reliable bioceramics are needed to implement the high requirements that living tissues demand. This work focuses on the processing steps necessary to manufacture advanced ceramics that can be used as implant devices. The influence of the heat treatment temperature on the characteristics of a precipitated hydroxyapatite (OHAp) powder was evaluated in order to obtain an appropriate specific surface area for colloidal processing. Ball milling of the calcined powders for 20 h was required to improve the rheological properties of the suspensions and the packing ability during consolidation. Different dispersing agents were tested and the first trial was made based on their effect on the zeta potential. The most promising ones were then selected and their efficiency was evaluated from rheological measurements and slip-casting performance of suspensions prepared at different solids loading. Targon 1128 was revealed to be the most efficient dispersant, enabling to prepare fluid suspensions containing 50 vol% solids and the highest green and sintered density values to be obtained.
