Recent years have seen implants becoming increasingly prominent in the health field and
the revival of damaged organs. Since implants are objects implanted in the body as a piece …

Abstract Background Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a capable approach for the
fabrication of bone tissue scaffolds. Nevertheless, a purely made scaffold such as polylactic …

In this paper, the in-vivo healing of critical-sized bony defects by cell-free and stem cell-
seeded 3D-printed PLA scaffolds was studied in rat calvaria bone. The scaffolds were …

Multifunctional materials have been described to meet the diverse requirements of implant
materials for femoral components of uncemented total knee replacements. These materials …

Critical-sized bone defects are a major challenge in reconstructive bone surgery and usually
fail to be treated due to limited remaining bone quality and extensive healing time. The …

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the feasibility of making porous Al 2 O 3–Ti
composites using SPS processing with NaCl particles used as space-holders. Different …

Aseptic implant loosening after a total joint replacement is partially influenced by material-
specific factors when cobalt–chromium alloys are used, including osteolysis induced by …

The research was focused on alternative treatment techniques, separating immediate and
long-term reconstruction stages. The work involved development of ceramic materials …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the biocompatibility of Al2O3-Ti functionally graded
material (FGM) successfully fabricated by Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) technology, and to …

The aim of this study is to synthesize a new metallic aluminum and vanadium-free titanium
alloy biomaterial for better osseointegration and implantation in the physiological system …
