osseointegration

What Are Some Examples of Nanotechnology-Enhanced Materials Used in Osseointegration?

Several types of nanotechnology-enhanced materials are used in osseointegration. Titanium and its alloys, often used in implants, can be coated with hydroxyapatite at the nanoscale to improve osseointegration. Carbon nanotubes and graphene are also explored for their extraordinary mechanical properties and biocompatibility. Additionally, polymeric nanocomposites are being developed to provide flexible, yet strong, interfaces between implants and bone.
