METALLIC BIOMATERIALS FOR HUMAN BODY IMPLANT: A REVIEW STUDY
Biomaterials, biocompatible, metal implants, tissue engineering.
Abstract-Human body parts implant by using biomaterials is in practice from last seven decades. Rapid growth in research activities over the years in the field of biomedical science have developed the biomedical products such as dental implants, craniofacial plates and screws, parts of artificial hearts, pacemakers, clips, valves, balloon catheters, medical devices and equipments, bone fixation devices, dental materials, medical radiation shielding products, prosthetic and orthodontic devices, tools of machining metallic biomaterials. The materials that are used to build biomedical devices such as orthopaedic, dental, bone cements etc. are broadly classified into metallic materials, ceramics, polymers and composites. Metallic materials within these four categories are widely used due to their high tensile strength, high yield strength, fatigue strength, toughness, and good biocompatibility despite some shortcomings such as the release of metallic ions and wear debris. Metals are extensively used in a variety of applications in the medical field for internal support and biological tissue replacements, such as joint replacements, dental roots, orthopaedic fixation and stents. The purpose of this paper is focused on various types of metals and metallic alloys used as the biomaterials for human body implant. This paper also highlights their mechanical properties, applications and future developments in human body part replacement.
