摘要:
Quenching a work piece made of a titanium alloy having a temperature higher than 800° C. to a temperature lower than 500° C. at a cooling rate greater than 10° C./second between 800° C. and 500° C. is used to render the cooled work piece containing &agr;″ phase as a major phase. The work piece is preferably a medical implant.
摘要:
The present invention provides a low alloying element-doped titanium and a casting cast therefrom. The doped titanium of the present invention includes titanium and from about 0.01 to 3 percent by weight of an alloying metal selected from the group consisting of bismuth, silver, hafnium, tantalum, molybdenum, tin, niobium, chromium and copper based on the weight of the titanium. The doped titanium of the present invention has improved castability and a decreased surface tension compared with pure titanium.
摘要:
A calcium-based bone cement formula having a powder component and a setting liquid component with a liquid to powder ratio of 0.20 ml/g to 0.50 ml/g is provided, wherein the powder component includes tetracalcium phosphate. The bone cement formula further contains, based on the total weight of the bone cement formula, 0.01-1% of poly(acrylic acid) having a repeating unit of —(CH2—C(COOH)H)n-, wherein n=50-50000.
摘要:
A method for forming a composite implant in a bone cavity is disclosed, which includes i) forming a first bone filler in a bone cavity; and ii) inserting a second bone filler into an unfilled space in the bone cavity, wherein the first bone filler has a higher compressive strength and slower bioresorption rate in comparison with the second bone filler.
摘要:
The present invention discloses a method of hardening a bone cement under an exerted pressure in a bone cavity including preparing a cement paste; injecting said cement paste into a balloon placed in a bone cavity; and allowing the cement paste harden in the balloon. Preferably, the balloon is opened after the cement paste is set, and the opened balloon is removed from the bone cavity. The present invention also discloses a device for use in the method of the present invention.
摘要:
The present invention discloses a method for making a porous calcium phosphate article including i) preparing a shaped article from a paste containing a calcium phosphate cement, a pore-forming powder and a setting liquid; ii) immersing the shaped article in an immersing liquid for a period of time so that the pore-forming powder is dissolved in the immersing liquid, creating pores in said shaped article; and iii) removing the resulting porous shaped article from the immersing liquid, wherein the resulting porous shaped article has an improved compressive strength. The porous shaped calcium phosphate article of the present invention may be used as a tissue-engineered scaffold, medical implant or a reinforcing constituent of a composite.
摘要:
The present invention discloses a prosthetic bone implant made of a hardened calcium phosphate cement having an apatitic phase as a major phase, which includes a dense cortical portion bearing the majority of load and a porous cancellous portion allowing a rapid blood/body fluid penetration and tissue ingrowth.

摘要:
A removable partial denture that does not have a palatal or lingual bar, strap or plate connecting both sides of an arch of the partial denture. In addition to the rests and/or clasps, the partial denture is held in position by the shape of the linguoplate, which conforms to the shape of the lingual surface of the teeth and alveolar mucosa, and the shape of a portion of the adjacent gum tissue of the patient.
摘要:
The present invention is related to a technique for simultaneously forming a plurality of paste filled tunnels. The plurality of paste filled tunnels are connected to a surgical tube directly or indirectly and emptied one after another, until a desired amount of the paste is injected into a bone cavity, organ or a tissue via the surgical tube. The paste may be a bone cement paste, a drug powder paste, viscous fluid or gel. The injected bone cement paste will set in the bone cavity to act as a medical implant.
