Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a thermoplastic polymer with strong mechanical properties,
good chemical stability and excellent biocompatibility. Since PEEK was approved as an …

Direct structural and purposeful relation between bone and implant is known as
osteointegration. When an implant is inserted into the bone, a bone-implant interface is …

The severe imbalance between supply and demand has remained a life-threatening
situation for patients undergoing organ resection or severe tissue damage. To resolve this …

3D-printing application in dentistry not only enables the manufacture of patient-specific
devices and tissue constructs, but also allows mass customization, as well as digital …

The high cost of biofabricated titanium mesh plates can make them out of reach for hospitals
in low-income countries. To increase the availability of cranioplasty, the authors of this work …

For decades, researches have concentrated on the mechanical properties, biodegradation,
and biocompatibility of implants used in the therapy of large size bone defect. In vivo studies …

Mechanical properties, such as elasticity modulus, tensile strength, elongation, hardness,
density, creep, toughness, brittleness, durability, stiffness, creep rupture, corrosion and wear …

Single-component materials and homogeneous structures cannot adequately meet the
various demands of ideal bone implants. Therefore, the use of three dimensional (3D) …

This review aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the current research in the field of
orthopedic bone plates exploring the various reinforcements used in polymer-based hybrid …
