Prediction of the structure of sintered bioactive composite materials for dental implants

The results of experimental studies on the optimization of the sintering process of bioactive composite materials based on a silicate matrix and hydroxyapatite are presented. To assess and predict the technological, mechanical and biological properties of materials, a sintering index is introduced, which is the ratio of the specific surfaces of the matrix and filler powders. The functional dependence of the sintering index on the content and granulometric composition of the filler was revealed. Sintered composite materials can be used to make intraosseous dental implants. Il. 2, bibliography: 4 titles.
