Use of nanostructured materials in implants

TLDR
The nanostructured biomaterials is an emerging area of research and the application of these materials can improve the performance and longevity of the implants and at the same time pave way for the development of new technologies in the future.
Abstract
Biomaterials play a crucial role in regenerative medicine, which aims to restore and reinstate lost/failed tissues or organs in the human body. Biomaterials are three dimensional temporary substrates which help in the development of new tissue and organization. Mimicking the characteristics of natural bone is challenging and those biomaterials which posses that property serves beneficial and also helps in the speedy recovery of the patient. These characteristics are of nanoscale regime and helps in wounding healing and tissue regeneration in the most effective way. In this chapter the development of nanostructured biomaterials, nanosurface modifications and nanoscaffolds has been discussed in detail. The different application of these bulk and surface modified nanomaterials has been convened. In conclusion, the nanostructured biomaterials is an emerging area of research and the application of these materials can improve the performance and longevity of the implants and at the same time pave way for the development of new technologies in the future.
