Ceramic Biomaterials Review

They do not create strong biologically relevant interfaces with bones but they do promote strong adhesions to bones 3 the main applications of ceramic biomaterials include.
Ceramic biomaterials review. Bioceramics range in biocompatibility from the ceramic oxides which are inert in the body to the other extreme of resorbable materials which are eventually replaced by the body after they have assisted repair bioceramics are used in many types of medical procedures.
