Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Bioactive glass is biocompatible, osteoconductive and osteoinductive. Therefore, bioactive glass has great potential in the treatment of bone defects.

OBJECTIVE: To carry out a series of researches on the combination of bioactive glass and metal elements so as to maximize the development and utilization of bioactive glasses and to boost the development of local precision treatments.
METHODS: By retrieval of WanFang, CNKI, PubMed databases, literatures on functional bioactive glass were obtained, in which studies addressing the further functional enhancement of bioactive glass in combination with metal ions were screened out.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Current bioactive glass can be combined with a variety of functional metal ions, thereby endowing it with antibacterial, pro-angiogenic, and magnetocaloric functions. Moreover, this review prospects the application of functional bioactive glass in orthopedics.
