Abstract
⺠Fluorapatite crystals improve glass bioactivity. ⺠Fluorapatite crystals act as nucleation sites for growing of new crystal phases. ⺠MgO concentration has an effect on the fluoride released. ⺠Magnesium has an impact on glass dissolution and bioactivity. ⺠Glass dissolution is required for apatite growth.
