    This document discusses ceramic biomaterials and their applications. It defines biomaterials as synthetic materials used to replace parts of living systems or function in contact with living tissue. Bioceramics, a type of biomaterial, are ceramic materials specially developed for medical and dental implants to replace hard tissues like bone and teeth. Common bioceramics include alumina, zirconia, and hydroxyapatite. Bioceramics are used in musculoskeletal implants, dental implants, orthopedic implants, ear implants, and cardiac valves. They have advantages like biocompatibility, strength, and corrosion resistance, but also disadvantages like brittleness and difficulty in fabrication.

    Introduction
    Definitions

    Biomaterial: A synthetic material used to


    make devices to replace part of a living system
    or to function in intimate contact with living
    tissue.

    Biocompatibility: Acceptance of an artificial


    implant by the surrounding tissues and by the
    body as a whole.
    Kinds
    Inert biocompatible: are accepted for the body and can stay in
    the body for long periods of time. Used for permanent implants.

    Resorbable biocompatible: Designed for being reabsorbed


    and substituted for the natural tissue.

    Biocompatible bioactive: them react strongly with the


    natural tissue, forming a strong link.

    Bio-ceramics: are ceramic materials specially developed for


    use as medical and dental implants. They are usually used to
    replace hard tissue in the body like bone and teeth.

    Common bio-ceramics: are alumina, zirconia and a form of


    calcium phosphate known as hydroxyapatite.
    Bio-ceramics are used as parts of:

    1. The musculoskeletal
    system.
    2. Dental implants.

    3. Orthopedic implants.

    4. Orbital and middle ear implants.

    5. Cardiac valves.

    Also, Bio-ceramics are used as coating to improve


    the biocompatibility of metallic implants.
    Bio-ceramics are made in different types. They can be
    single crystals (sapphire), polycrystalline (alumina or
    hydroxyapatite), glass (bio-glass, and glass- ceramic)
    or composites (polyethylene).

    • High biocompatibility.
    Advantage • Less stress shielding.
    • No disease transmission.
    s to bio- • High compression strength.
    •
    ceramics: •
    Wear & corrosion resistance.
    Low thermal and electrical conductivity.
    • Brittleness.
    • Low strength in
    tension.
    • Low fracture
    Disadvantages to bio- toughness.
    ceramics:
    • Difficult to fabricate.
    • Susceptibility to micro-
    cracks.
    • Not resilient.

    • Biocompatible.
    In order to be classified as
    a bio-ceramic, the • Nontoxic.
    ceramic material must • No allergic.
    meet the following • No inflammatory.
    properties:
    • No carcinogenic.
