Abstract:
With the improvement of living standard, the requirement of artificial joint material is ever increasing. The development of meted artificial joint, high polymer artificial joint and ceramic-made artificial joint, which are widely used in joint replacement, are introduced. Advantages and disadvantages of these materials are discussed, as well as the required improvement to these three materials. Development on metal-to-metal hip resurfacing arthroplasty and its clinical application is introduced. Now that no material with good biocompatibility, good biomechanical compatibility, good biological aasociativity and satisfied life-span has yet been found, compound material artificial joint may be the focus of the research in future.
