The growth of the elderly population is urging for more suitable biomaterials to allow performance better surgical and implant procedures accelerate patient’s healing because are vulnerable orthopedic dental problems. β-phase Ti alloys can improve mechanical properties implants by reducing their elastic modulus and, consequently, effects stress shielding within bones. Therefore, objective this article study a novel ternary alloy Ti10Mo8Nb produced an electric arc furnace rotary forge....
With little success, researchers has been searching for alloys with elements such as tantalum to improve the long-term life of implants. The Ti–30Ta alloy presents an elastic modulus E = 69 GPa that is close bone (E 17–25 GPa) than Ti cp 105 GPa). In addition, nanostructure surface modification influences cell behavior and antimicrobial activity. So, this study investigates corrosion by TiO2 nanotube grown on after anodization process in electrolyte glycerol + NH4F 0.25% at 30 V, nine hours...
Several studies have been carried out to develop new materials for biomedical applications. Material surfaces that present biomimetic morphology like nanotubes or nanofibers provides nanoscale architectures shown alter cell/biomaterial interactions. The coated surface biomaterial with biocompatible polymers and of TiO2 is an alternative improve osseointegration. anodization process was performed obtain covering the Ti-30Ta alloy electrospinning has used producing polymer fibers....
Background: The occurrence of bone fractures is increasing worldwide, mainly due to the health problems that follow aging population. use additive manufacturing and electrical stimulators can be applied for bioactive achievements in healing. However, such technologies are difficult transferred medical practice. This work aims develop an orthosis with a combined magnetic field (CFM) electrostimulator demonstrates concepts design aspects facilitate its real scenario. Methods: A 3D-printed made...
One of the major health security challenges 21st century is occurrence microbial infections and bacterial complications that could affect 10 million people by 2050. On biomaterial field, implant metallic currently replaces partial or total body parts can fail to be integrated into due infections. This study performs two combined surface modifications on Ti-30Ta alloy, in order obtain an infection-resistance osseointegration implants tested within biofilm. The Group 1 investigated anodization...
