Bioactive materials are part of the biomaterial family and are increasingly becoming popular due to their ability to react with body fluids and tissues without having a negative impact on the human health. They are extensively used as tissue replacement and tissue repair materials in surgical procedures. Bioactive materials are manufactured from materials such as ceramics, glass, glass-ceramics, and composites. The major end-users of bioactive materials are the Medical sector, followed by the Dentistry and Cosmetics sectors. Bioactive materials are commercially available in forms such as powders and nano-powders, granules, and injectable products and coatings.
