Abstract :Biomaterials can be designed by imitating and taking inspiration from the forms and compositions of natural tissues. The inorganic component of the hard tissues; bone, dentin and enamel, is hydroxyapatite (Ca 10 (PO 4 ) 6 (OH) 2 ) containing various trace elements that are important in biochemical reactions of bone metabolism. Boron is considered as an essential element for human physiology and it has many biologic affects especially on hard tissues. Substitution of boron into the structure of hydroxyapatite or other bioceramics, such as calcium phosphates and bioglasses, could enhance angiogenesis and osteogenesis of the damaged tissue. This review covers briefly the recent and very recent works on preparing numerous bioceramic, bioglass and glass-ceramic systems containing boron.
Keywords : Boron, Ion Substitution, Hydroxyapatite, Calcium Phosphate, Bioglass
