Abstract
In nature, many systems have properties far beyond of
those formed using the same synthetic materials, because
nature's composites mineral crystal growth and
orientation is controlled. Ceramics and ceramic
composites are one group of natural materials where the
mineral component is prevalent, such as in shells, teeth,
and bones. In biological systems, the designed structure
and material are connected on the contrary to synthetic
materials. By combining biological and synthetic
approaches in design, new biomimetic multifunctional
biomaterials can be developed. In this paper various
technological advances suitable for use in biocompatible
applications are presented
