Bioglass: These are amorphous materials whose vitreous structure is produced by linking several tetrahedrons from a specific ionic group forming a non-reticular crystal structure, meaning that they do not have periodicity inside their crystal structure.
Biovidrios: son materiales amorfos cuya estructura vítrea se produce por la unión de los tetraedros de un grupo iónico determinado para formar una estructura reticular no cristalina, es decir, no presenta periodicidad de largo alcance dentro de la red.
