Bioceramics and bioglasses are ceramic materials that are biocompatible.
Purchase advances in ceramic biomaterials 1st edition.
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.
Zirconia ceramics have several advantages over other ceramic materials due to the transformation toughening mechanisms operating in their microstructure that can give to components made out of them very interesting mechanical properties.
The research on the use of zirconia ceramics as biomaterials.
Joint tissue replacement metal coating to improve biocompatibility.
