Bioactive materials

Bioactive materials are specialized substances used in medical applications that can interact beneficially with biological systems. They are designed to promote healing, integration, or regeneration by bonding or stimulating tissues such as bone or soft tissue. For example, bioactive glasses or ceramics used in dental or orthopedic implants encourage natural tissue growth, leading to better healing outcomes. These materials are carefully engineered to be compatible with the body, reducing rejection risks, and often help restore function or structure by working alongside the body's natural processes.
