A method for improving soft tissue attachment which includes the steps of coating a surface of a material, to which surface soft tissue is to be attached, with a coating rich in TiOand/or SiO, and applying the coating where soft tissue attachment is desired. An implant in which a surface or surfaces of the implant intended to be attached to soft tissue are coated with a porous coating rich in TiOand/or SiO, and the use of a porous surface coating rich in TiO, SiO, or TiOand SiO, for the manufacture of an implant for soft tissue attachment are also disclosed.

The invention relates to a prepreg comprising a base part, said base part comprising fibers and a matrix, said matrix being at least partially uncured. The prepreg is characterized in that it further comprises a surface part consisting essentially of bioactive filler material, said bioactive filler material being in particle form and at least partially and at most partially embedded in said base part. The invention also relates to a composite obtainable by curing said prepreg. The invention further relates to a mineralizing sheet for treatment of hypersensitive teeth and to the use of said prepreg and composite.
