Description:
Implants into the human body , such as hip joints, heart valves and dental crowns
, have been increasingly used over the last 40 years or so, and many
patients have benefited from their use. But how much is known about the
metals, ceramics and polymers that are used in these repairs?||This
book provides a state-of-the-art account of the chemistry of the
synthetic materials used in medicine and dentistry .
It looks at the properties and interactions of these materials within
the body at a molecular level, and includes discussion of
bioengineering and cell biology. In addition, there is an account of thesurgical procedures[ used,
as well as extensive coverage of the possible biological reactions to
the presence of foreign materials in the body. A brief look at the
emerging field of tissue engineering completes the text.||Fully
referenced, with detailed reviews of the current literature, "The
Chemistry of Medical and Dental Materials" will be an essential
starting-point for all those in academia and industry who are involved
in the development of new and improved repair materials.
