Bredigite-containing materials for regenerative medicine applications: A rapid review 1 1 Bredigite (BR; Ca7MgSi4O16) is known as one of the most popular calcium-silicate bioceramics. It has an orthorhombic structure containing calcium silicate magnesium compound, and releases Si ions, thereby inducing precursor cell differentiation and cell growth. This suggests that Br may serve as a promising material for existing orthopedic and dental implants. A new insight into the Br composites structure/activity/application tradeoff is the primary objective of the current review, which helps researchers overcome the existing challenges and recognize the bottlenecks that arose from this intersection. In this rapid review, the state-of-the-art advances in Br-containing composites in terms of preparation techniques and modifying methods for enhancing their functional properties, especially in the field of dental implants are surveyed and discussed 190 199 Amirhosein Shahbaz Department of Materials Engineering, Karaj Branch, Islamic Azad University Iran amirhosein.shahbaz@gmail.com Neda Tajbakhsh Department of Prosthodontics, School of Dentistry, Islamic Azad University, Tehran Dental Branch Iran info@jourcc.com Aidin Doroudi Polymer and Color Engineering Department, Amirkabir University of Technology Iran info@jourcc.com Fatemeh Bakhshi Polymer and Color Engineering Department, Amirkabir University of Technology Iran info@jourcc.com Samira Ranjbar Department of Materials and Metallurgical Engineering, Amirkabir University of Technology Iran info@jourcc.com Bredigite Regenerative Medicine Dental Implants Composites Article4.pdf [1] S.
