Biomaterials in Dentistry

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Biomaterials and Medical Devices

Part of the book series: Advanced Structured Materials ((STRUCTMAT,volume 58))

Abstract

Dental materials are used for the replacement of destroyed or lost structures and for the restoration of disturbed functions of the orofacial organ (hard tooth substance, teeth, and soft tissues of the mouth). Among the main challenges in restorative dentistry in Indonesia are the caries, recurrent caries due to the leakage or restoration failure  that may lead to infection of the pulp and periodontal tissue. Therefore, it is desirable to develop dental materials having ability to seal the marginal interface between material and tooth structure, bioactivity to promote remineralization and good bonding with tooth structure and antimicrobial capabilities. This chapter describes dental materials in restorative dentistry, the most common dental problems in Indonesia, and the development of local bioactive dental materials by utilizing the diversity of natural resources in Indonesia.
