Abstract
A biodegradable and biocompatible barrier membrane of piezoelectric nano composites of Metallic Oxide (MO) (e.g., Magnesium oxide, Zinc oxide and iron oxide)-PLLA (Poly-L-lactide), which can be subjected to acoustic pressure from ultrasound, to generate useful electrical charge for enhanced bone regeneration and enhanced antibacterial effects for guided bone regeneration to treat dental diseases, such as periodontitis.
