Abstract:
Bone repair materials are disclosed, from which ions are hardly eluted in living body and which are superior in apatite-forming ability and resistance to apatite peeling and have a scratch resistance high enough for practical use. The material comprises a substrate made of titanium or titanium alloys, and a surface layer, made substantially of titanium oxide, along the surface of the substrate. The substrate has on the surface thereof irregularities of from 1 nm to 10 μm in average in both width and depth. The layer has a zeta potential of +4.5 mV or more under an aqueous solution environment of pH 6 to 8, and a critical scratch resistance of 35 mN or more when vibration 100 μm in amplitude is added to a stylus with a spring constant of 200 g/mm on the surface layer and the stylus is moved at a rate of 10 mm/sec under a load increasing at a rate of 100 mN/min.

Abstract:
A bone repair material being superior in apatite-forming ability and its stability in a storage and high in scratch resistance is disclosed. The material is produced by a method comprising the steps of: immersing a substrate made of titanium or a titanium alloy in a first aqueous solution that does not contain calcium ions but contains at least one cation selected from the group consisting of sodium ions and potassium ions and is alkaline; immersing the substrate in a second aqueous solution that does not contain phosphate ions but contains calcium ions; heating the substrate in a dry atmosphere; and treating the substrate with hot water of 60° C. or higher or with steam.

The artificial bone comprises: a dense part made of titanium or a titanium alloy, in the shape of a frame that is approximate to a part of an outer face of a living bone, having a density of 95% or more; and a porous part made of sintered particles of titanium or a titanium alloy having the same or different composition as the titanium alloy for the dense part, in the shape approximate to the remaining part of the living bone, having a porosity of 40% or more, the dense part and the particles of the porous part being sintered to each other at an interface between the dense part and the porous part.
Abstract:
An excellent bioactive cement is provided which can chemically and firmly bond to teeth or bones of living bodies, adapt the shape of defected portions of bones or teeth of living bodies, harden quickly, and exhibit high initial strength, without forming inflammation to the surrounding tissue of living bodies. The bioactive cement is composed of glass powder comprising Ca as a main constituent, and an aqueous solution of ammonium phosphate as a hardening liquid for the glass powder, and is economical and stable without loosing the fixation between the artificial biomaterial and the bones or teeth of living bodies nor degradation thereof in the living bodies during a long period of use in the living bodies.
