- *Abstract
-
Biocompatible glasses that form biologically useful materials by chemically reacting with either body fluids or simulated body fluids to form materials within the body that are useful in regeneration mammalian hard and soft tissue are described. These glasses react with body fluids in several weeks to form the biologically useful materials that are osteogenic and resorbable by osteoclasts. The glasses may be made into desirable shapes such as microspheres or pulled into fibers and can be made into wound dressings or heated to form rigid scaffolds.
