Abstract

The global dental materials market is projected to be close to $10 billion by 2025 [1]. Advances in dentistry are closely related to this scenario, and the primary impetus is to facilitate the workflow of dentists and increase the comfort of the patients. Therefore, notable research projects have been carried out which are currently underway, to develop new elements with improved properties, or which can be processed using advanced technologies [2-4]. The ideal material to restore or replace lost oral tissues may be difficult to achieve, but the effort persists at a determined rate. The literature is profuse with new biocompatible approaches, aimed at clinical efficiency and effectiveness; the examples in regenerative medicine, which stimulate biomimetic processes, are of great interest, but with difficulties of predictability in the clinical setting [5].
