6. Influence of solid solutions on the properties of some apatite-type calcium salts relevant to the production of phosphate and silicate cements
Sammanfattning : The effects of non-stoichiometry and isomorphic substitutions on the properties of some apatite-type compounds were investigated. These investigations were performed both in the fields of Portland cement chemistry and apatitic calcium phosphate-based biocements. LÄS MER
7. The biological and physical performance of high strength dicalcium phosphate cement in physiologically relevant models
Sammanfattning : The chemical properties of calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) are very similar to the mineral phase of bone. CPCs are, consequently, very effective substrates (scaffolds) for tissue engineering; bone and stem cells attach readily, and can proliferate and differentiate to form new bone tissue. LÄS MER
8. Influence of a dental ceramic and a calcium aluminate cement on dental biofilm formation and gingival inflammatory response
Sammanfattning : Dental restorative materials interact with their surrounding oral environment. Interaction factors can be release of toxic components and/or effects on biofilm formation and gingiva. In the end of the nineties, a calcium aluminate cement (CAC) was manufactured as a “bioceramic” alternative to resin composite. LÄS MER
9. Injectable Biomaterials for Spinal Applications
Sammanfattning : The use of injectable biomaterials is growing as the demands for minimally invasive procedures, and more easily applicable implants become higher, but their availability is still limited due to the difficulties associated to their design.Each year, more than 700,000 vertebral compression fractures (VCF’s) are reported in the US and 500,000 VCF’s in Europe due to primary osteoporosis only.

10. Novel Materials and Implant Designs for the Treatment of Degenerative Disc Disease
Sammanfattning : The overarching objective of this thesis was to develop intervertebral implants for degenerated discs through design, fabrication, and mechanical validation. The research had four primary aims, each addressing different facets of implant development. LÄS MER
