Applications of Glass-Ceramics

The advantages provided by the combination of bioactivity and specific mechanical properties (Table 4-13), such as compressive strength and fracture toughness, are evidenced by the successful application of glass-ceramics as artificial vertebrae (Fig. 4-26). The CERABONE A-W (1992) brochure presents a particularly effective example of how the material is used. The broken lumbar 2 vertebra in a 57-year-old patient was replaced by an implant made of CERABONE A-W glass-ceramic. The implant was held in place with a Kaneda device. The X-ray examinations conducted three and six years... [Pg.274]
