Bioceramic orbital plate implant
October 03, 2005Porous biphasic calcium phosphate evaluated as a potential alternative for commercially available orbital implant bioceramics
The remarkable progress of ceramics in recent years has resulted in the development of materials with chemical, physical and mechanical properties that are suitable for biomedical applications. Ceramic materials used for this purpose are known as bioceramics and their fields of application include orthopedic, odontosthomathology, ophthalmology, plastic and cosmetic surgery.
Among the bioceramic materials that are being developed, tricalcium phosphate, Ca3(PO4) 2 and hydroxyapatite Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 are most commonly considered for bone graft applications.
In a study in the open access journal AZojomo*, porous biphasic calcium phosphate orbital plate implants consisting of tricalcium phosphate and hydroxyapatite were developed as a cheaper alternative to commercially available implants. Biocompatibility, vascularization, resorption, bone induction and bone conduction are results are reported and the materials' potential as an alternative are presented at http://www.azom.com/details.asp?articleID=3029

Bioceramics and Their Clinical Applications by T. Kokubo (Editor) With contributions from leading international academics, this book reviews the range of bioceramics, their properties, and spectrum of clinical uses. It begins with a discussion of structure, mechanics, and biological interactions, then reviews fabrication, microstructure, and properties of specific bioceramics and glasses, concentrating on the most promising materials. The final group of chapters covers the clinical application of bioceramics in joint replacement, bone grafts, tissue engineering and dentistry. Handbook of Bioceramics and their Applications is a useful resource for biomaterials scientists and engineers, as well as for clinicians and the academic community. |

Calcium Phosphate Based Bioceramics for Bone Tissue Engineering (Materials Science Foundations,) by Sergey Barinov (Editor), Vladimir Komlev (Editor) Tissue engineering is a new biotechnology that combines various aspects of medicine, biology and engineering, in order to produce, repair or replace human tissue. It is therefore easy to grasp the potential of these new therapies in helping to improve the quality-of-life of patients suffering from rare diseases. Typically, bone tissue engineering approaches foresee the use of scaffolding material combined with tissue cells. An advanced scaffolding material for tissue engineering must exhibit high quality, reliability, sustainability and cost-effectiveness throughout the individual's life and provide new advanced levels of medical assistance in therapy and surgery. One particular requirement of bone tissue engineering is that the scaffold should be porous because, in that form, large... | |
