Bioceramics is an interdisciplinary field that considers the use of ceramic materials for biomedical applications. Next to the well-established and ubiquitous ceramic orthopaedic implants and bone cements, the field of tissue engineering strongly relies on a knowledge-based design of tailored scaffolds, as well. For the design and production of bioceramics, materials scientists need a thorough understanding of ceramics as a class of materials, as well a good working knowledge of the field of biomaterials including the interaction of biomaterials with their biological surroundings. Finally, the biomedical applications of the materials and the standpoint of biomedical professionals need to be considered as well, providing a real-world assessment of the academic research field.

Bioceramics is the only book that covers all of these aspects. The book addresses the types of bioceramics currently available, their structure and fundamental properties and then their most important applications.

The only complete introductory reference in bioceramics that covers both the theoretical basics as well as the advanced applications that researchers need to know about
Includes overview of key applications of bioceramics such as orthopaedic and dental applications and tissue engineering
Use of case studies to build understanding, and enable innovation
