Cobalt-chromium alloys, stainless steel, and titanium alloys are three common biomaterials that have been used as surgical implants. Investigate the use of these biomaterials, and write a brief report discussing the advantages and disadvantages of each. [Pg.523]

Titanium is used in medicine mainly for its mechanical benefits in surgical and dental materials in a host of orthopedic and orthodontic appliances, with or without other metals (for example nickel, cobalt, chromium), and generally without serious adverse effects. Titanium and its alloys are in use as implants in bone surgery (1,2) and in dental materials (3,4). Research on the biocompatibility of metal and tissue continues (5). [Pg.3434]
