title: Physics of bone bonding mechanism of different surface bioactive ceramic materials in vitro and in vivo.
abstract: The present work deals with fundamental problems around bone bonding mechanism. Different sorts of biomaterials: inert, bioactive and metals are discussed. The importance of surface properties of biomaterials, as, e.g., zeta potential, is of utmost importance to understand the bonding mechanism.
