Abstract

The advances in the application of biomaterial in orthopaedic application are rising on daily basis due to a rise in the number of problems related to damage in human body parts including fractures, strains, dislocations, etc. Several studies were conducted on the biomaterial application for an orthopaedic procedure but still the optimum desirable characteristic of such biomaterial like biocompatibility, mechanical strength including tensile, shear in compression is yet to be identified. This is required to ensure that the biomaterial selected must possess antibacterial and osteogenic properties so that the implanted material does not pose any serious infection while treatment as it can lead to several diseases in the human body and sometimes lead to mortality. In the current study, experimental data of biomaterial including bioceramic such as bioactive, biodegradable, and bioinert were considered and their mechanical strength is analyzed to find the optimum biomaterial containing desirable properties and the limitation is discussed and summarized. In addition, the experimental data taken from a recent study on biomaterial having antibacterial and osteogenic properties were also analyzed and discussed.
