Abstract

Over the last years, bioactive glass particles have been successfully incorporated in dental restorative materials. Remineralizing effects on dental hard tissue and antibacterial properties are promising properties of these customized composites. A few materials doped with bioactive fillers are already available on the dental market. Nevertheless, further research is required to fine-tune bioactive composites for biomimetic restorative approaches.
