Medical Devices: Their biocompatibility makes them suitable for surgical implants, such as bone repair devices and stents. Aerospace: Tantalum tubes are used in high-temperature components like rocket nozzles and turbine blades. ...
In biomedical engineering, hydrophobic polymers are used in the development of medical devices, implants, and drug delivery systems. Their water-repellent properties help prevent bacterial adhesion, ensuring the safety and efficacy of these devices. ...
At present, it has become the metal material of choice for replacement or repair products such as artificial joints, artificial bones, broken bone fixators, spine correction rods, intramedullary nails, artificial heart valves, dental implants, and skulls. ...
What happens when you bring 90+ expert dentistry and maxillofacial surgeon’s together in a room to unpack the burgeoning world of collagen membrane technology and digital dentistry? There are plenty of reasons to smile, that’s what. On Tuesday 7 August 2018, Australian regenerative medicine company Orthocell (ASX:OCC) sponsored and participated in an industry forum, Advances in ...
In calcium phosphate ceramics, hydroxyapatite (HAP) can form chemical bonding with cartilage tissue due to its molecular structure and calcium-phosphorus ratio, which are very similar to the inorganic components of normal bone and have excellent biological activity and osteoinductivity. In the implantation of bone defect, there is no fibrous ...

Periodontal surgery can be divided to soft surgery and simultaneous soft and hard surgery. Potential bone damage has been always a concern in periodontal surgery using lasers. ...

METHODS AND RATIONALE It is my personal preference to place a wider and longer fixture in the posterior maxilla where bone quality and density is considered less than ideal and where the highest incidences of implant failures occur. While it has been shown that short implants function and have predictable long-term success, this is likely a ...
The following case was performed at the Pacific Dental Convention’s Live Surgical Stage held March 8th, 2018 in Vancouver, BC. The patient is a healthy 58 year old male with no known allergies or medical contra-indications to dental treatment. Patient presented with a Class III malocclusion for which he received both orthodontic and oral surgery consultations; however, he was not ...
Osteogenesis, or new bone formation, begins in the early stages of embryonic development and continues postnatally until skeletal maturity is reached in early adulthood. Osteogenesis reoccurs in the event of bone trauma, such as a fracture or surgically created defect. Bone mass can also increase in response to chronic weight bearing from daily use or decrease due to a lack of movement or applied ...
Description of soft tissue punch Application domain: for implantology Material: Ultra high anti-rust & high-hardness stainless steel, titanium, titanium alloy, high anti-rust stainless steel LZQ is an OEM factory for all kinds of dental implant trephines, such as Bone Fetcher P165, Drill Bit 096, Cutting Bur/Bone File P190, ...
It can additionally serve as a information for positioning the drill whilst measuring the thickness of the buccal bone, thereby preventing bone resorption and reducing the burden on the patient. In addition, secure drill positions can be guided to a range of cases with the aid of combining different surgical instruments (e.g., function guide, linker, and width ...
Description Application domain: orthopedicsMaterial: Ultra-high anti-rust high-hardness stainless steel, general rust-proof ultra-high wear-resistant stainless steel, ceramicType:Bone saws, Gums sawsLZQ is an OEM factory for all kinds of dental implant wrenches, such as Bone Saw P250, Cutting Bur/Bone File P190, Endoscopic/Arthroscopic Shaver ...
PEEK is biocompatible, similar in elasticity to bone, and radiolucent, but is inert and therefore does not integrate well with bone. Current efforts are focusing on increasing the bioactivity of PEEK with surface modifications to improve the bone-implant interface. We used a novel Accelerated Neutral Atom Beam (ANAB) technology ...
Then, I was assigned to design the layout for an article called “Designer Bones,” and I discovered EpiBone. The title itself alerted me that creative thinking drove EpiBone, outwardly a hard-core biotechnology company that grows personalized bone grafts for implantation. ...
An ideal bone grafting material should be compatible with physiological environment, provoke osseous tissue formation and adapt degradation behaviour to new bone tissue growth. ...

Firm and immediate fixation between pedicle screws and bone prevents aseptic loosening and implant failure. Coating with hydroxyapatite is a possible method to improve the fixation of metallic implants in bone. In this study, scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) has been used to investigate the ultrastructure of the ...
Microporous surfaces of commercially available uncemented Tilastan® implants were coated with gentamicinpalmitate. The roughness of the titanium implant surfaces remained largely intact. During the first few days, the gentamicin release was comparable to the elution of this antibiotic from commercially available PMMA bone cements. Compared to ...
The structure of compact bone is heterogeneous and as such, is difficult to shape by cutting tools during clinical surgical practices. The structure of bone can have a devastating effect on the performance of the cutting tool unless it is coated with a thin solid film that is wear resistant. The paper investigates the use of diamond coated cutting tools to ...
