Features: This book thoroughly elaborates on existing dental materials while incorporating discussions on dental biomaterials and biomedical foundations. It focuses on the gradient, piezoelectric, and nano-scale structural characteristics of natural biological tissues and craniofacial-jaw-tooth tissues, proposing perspectives and insights on the design and preparation of dental biomaterials. The book consists of 11 chapters, with essential foundational knowledge introduced first, followed by in-depth coverage of dental gradient functional materials, dental electroactive materials, dental nanomaterials, dental implant materials, dental degradable materials, dental tissue engineering materials, dental adhesive materials, dental restorative materials, and dental preventive and health care materials. The content is rich, covers a wide range of knowledge close to contemporary cutting-edge technologies, and offers practical guidance for both basic research and clinical applications. This book is suitable for teachers and physicians engaged in dental medical teaching, research, and clinical practice, as well as college students, undergraduate students, and graduate students majoring in dental medicine. It can also serve as a reference for scientists and engineers involved in biomedical material research and development.
