Dental/Craniofacial Implants and Bone Regeneration - Virtual Issue

 

The Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B is pleased to present to you the Virtual Issue: Featured Topics in Dental/Craniofacial Implants and Bone Regeneration sponsored by the Society For Biomaterials Dental/Craniofacial Special Interest Group (SIG). This virtual issue features highlighted articles published over the past 3 years in the topic areas of:

   a. dental implant surface modifications/coatings,

   b. evaluation of dental implant osseointegration phenomena and assessment methods from both animal models and human retrievals,

   c. implant soft tissue interfaces and bacterial infection/contamination, and

   d. craniofacial bone grafting strategies and materials including use of stem cells.

This virtual issue is developed in part to coincide with topics being presented in the special symposium “Nanobiomaterial and Drug-Delivery Strategies for Dental/Craniomaxillofacial Repair/Regeneration” and the general sessions sponsored by the Dental/Craniofacial SIG at the 2015 Annual Meeting and Exposition of the Society For Biomaterials 14-18 April 2015 in Charlotte, NC, USA. This Virtual Issue was edited by Joel D. Bumgardner PhD, University of Memphis, Delphine Dean PhD, Clemson University; F. Kurtis Kasper PhD, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston; and Sachin Mamidwar MBBS, MS, Orthogen Corporation.
