3. WHAT AREIMPLANTS
• A thing inserted in the body, especially a piece of
tissue, prosthetic device, or other object in the
body.
• Medical device manufactured to replace a
missing biological structure, support a damaged
biological structure, or enhance an existing
biological structure . i.e. for therapeutic,
diagnostic, experimental or prosthetic processes.
• Implanted either partially or completely.
4. CHARACTERISTICSOF IMPLANTS
• Man-made devices.
• Biocompatible and Biosafe.
• Different from transplant, which is a biomedical tissue.
• Implants surface in contact with body might be made
of a biomedical material such as titanium, silicone,
or apatite depending on function.
• Sometimes electronic, such as artificial
pacemaker and cochlear implants.
• Some are bioactive, such as subcutaneous drug
delivery devices.
9. ORTHOPAEDICIMPLANTS
• Medical device manufactured to either assist or
replace damaged or troubled bones and joints.
• Internal fixation - an operation that involves the
surgical implementation of bone implants.
• Characteristics depends on material properties
and structural properties.
• Key factor for bone healing is interfragmentary
movement that determines-
Tissue strain.
Cellular reaction in the fracture healing zone.

11. MATERIALS USED FOR ORTHOPAEDIC IMPLANTS
• METALS
Stainless steel, cobalt-chromium alloys, titanium
alloys.
• POLYMERS
Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene
(UHMWPE), and polymethyl methacrylate
(PMMA).
• Ductility and corrosion resistance are
important factor taken care for fractures.
13. ORTHOPAEDICSCREWS
• Most commonly used devices for bone fracture
fixation.
• Can be standalone fixators or in conjunction with
other orthopaedic hardware devices, particularly
plates.
• Retain stability of most screw-plate fixation
devices.
• Effect on the long term bone-screw interaction is
largely unknown.
• Supply necessary interfragmentary compression
16. BONEPLATES
• Also called tension band and is placed across
the fracture on the tension (or convex) side of
the bone.
• At this position converted into compressive
forces.
• Offer the benefits of anatomic reduction of
the fracture with open techniques.
• Stability for early function of muscle-tendon
units and joints.

18. BONE PLATESContd...
• Principle - Must be applied to the tension side of
the bone, so that the bone itself will receive the
compressive forces.
• Disadvantages/Failure
If applied to the compression (or concave) side of
the bone, it is very likely to bend, fatigue, and fail.
risk of bone refracture after their removal
osteoporosis beneath a plate
plate irritation
immunologic reaction (rare case)

20. INTERLOCKINGNAILS(RODS)
• Medullary nail technique for fracture fixation.
• Longitudinally slotted tube that is inserted
into a long bone under pre-stress.
• Can be implanted through a small incision and
without considerable surgical exposure.
• Principle - The radial stress caused by the
insertion of nail leads to friction between nail
and bone that secures the relative movement
between the two nailed fragments.
23. DENTAL IMPLANTS
• Metal posts or frames that are surgically positioned
into the jawbone beneath gums.
• Fuses, or integrates with natural bone.
• Artificial replacements for dental roots.
• Three components: the post( screw), abutment, and
restoration(crown).
• Osseointegration.
• Serve as a complete tooth replacement.
• Usually manufactured from titanium or titanium alloys.
Other materials are stainless steel, Co-Cr-Mb alloys,
ceramics, polymers such as PTFE.

25. REASONSOF USINGDENTALIMPLANTS
• Stop teeth from shifting into the empty space.
• Conserve jawbone.
• Implant-supported dentures prevent
complications.
• Preserve physical facial appearance.
26.
27. CONDITIONSFOR USING DENTAL IMPLANTS
Dental implants may be used when a person-
• Has one or more missing teeth
• Has a jawbone that's reached full growth
• Has adequate bone to secure the implants or are
able to have a bone graft
• Has healthy oral tissues
• Doesn't have health conditions that will affect
bone healing
• Is unable or unwilling to wear dentures
• Want to improve speech
30. DISADVANTAGES/RISKS
• High cost.
• Time consuming process.
• Surgical and hence prone to complications and risks.
Risks include:
Infection at the implant site
Injury or damage to surrounding structures, such as
other teeth or blood vessels
Nerve damage, which can cause pain, numbness or
tingling in natural teeth, gums, lips or chin
Sinus problems.
31. DISADVANTAGES/RISKSContd...
• After the procedure risks include:
Swelling of your gums and face
Bruising of your skin and gums
Pain at the implant site
Minor bleeding
32. CONCLUSION
• Implantation is boon for restoration of damaged
body part.
• Implantation is improved and stable method
mainly serve as long term or even permanent
solution.
• In dental implants, problems are rare, though,
and when they do occur they're usually minor
and easily treated.
• Under ideal conditions, implants initiate the
desired host response.
