What is Implant Materials and Structures about?

In contrast to biodegradable implant materials and appliances, many implant metals and alloys are permanent: teeth, cranial-facial, orthopedic appliances for knee and hip replacement, rods, screws, etc. The design and fabrication of biomechanically compatible orthopedic (bone) implants is discussed, especially with regard to reducing or eliminating stress shielding through controlled density and porosity to reduce stiffness (or Young's modulus). Examples of clinical trials and the development of "living" implants through vascularization are presented.
