Bone Replacement Products can be Used to Reconstruct Atrophied Alveolar Processes and They Also Help in Restoring Missing Teeth

Bone replacement surgeries have a number of benefits, from restoring facial bones to preventing dental problems. Missing teeth, for example, can lead to alveolar bone atrophy. A bone graft procedure can help treat this problem. This type of surgery is also less likely to result in a rejection reaction and minimizes the risk of infection. There are two main types of bone replacement products. First, there are the synthetic bone substitutes. TCP (triglyceride polyphosphate) is a type of synthetic bone substitute made from beta-tricalcium phosphate. It has the advantage of being biocompatible and biodegradable.

Another type of synthetic bone substitutes is called calcium phosphate cements. This material is a white powder that is mixed with a liquid and then shaped into the contours of the bone defect. Once applied to the affected area, it hardens in about 20 minutes. The reaction between the calcium phosphate cement and the surrounding area creates nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite. These cements are FDA-approved and biocompatible.

The global Bone Replacement Products Market was valued at US$ 31.7 billion in 2016 and is expected to witness a robust CAGR of 4.4% over the forecast period (2017 - 2025).

While autologous bone remains the gold standard for defect filling, artificial bone substitutes and allogenic bone transplants are now available. The sheer number of bone replacement products available makes it nearly impossible to have a comprehensive overview of all of these products. A bone graft procedure involves using donated bone from a cadaver to fill in bone-deficient areas. It is a common surgery that can be performed on almost any part of the body. Bone grafts can be either synthetic or natural. The purpose of bone grafting is to provide a framework for new bone growth.

Hip and knee replacement surgery involves removing the diseased surfaces of a joint and replacing them with artificial surfaces. New joints restore joint function and can improve physical activities. Physical therapy can also help a person regain their mobility after a joint replacement. Replacement surgery is an excellent option for some patients suffering from arthritis and other forms of joint pain. Bone grafting can help by restoring jawbone volume and they also helps in the success of dental implant surgery. In March 2022, Evonik developed VESTAKEEP® iC4800 3DF, which is an osteoconductive PEEK filament, used for improving fusion between implants and bones. This new product is used for the expansion of Evonik’s 3D-printable biomaterials in medical technology sector.

Oilfield Chemicals Help Improve the Efficacy and Efficiency of Activities at an Oilfield Site

Image
  Oilfield Chemicals  Chemical compounds used in oil and gas extraction operations are known as oilfield chemicals. The oilfield chemical used as drilling fluids can include suspension, fibers, biocides, and clay control, as well as polymers, surface modifiers, suspension and rheology chemicals, fillers and particles. Oilfield chemical help improve corrosion protection, drilling optimization, prevent mud loss in different geological formations, improve oil recovery, and stabilize drilling fluid in high pressure and high temperature environment, and many others. Global Oilfield Chemicals Market was valued at US$ 68,855.3 Million in 2021 in terms of revenue, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period (2022 to 2030). Oilfield drilling is a process of boring hole into to the earth crust for natural gas and oil. As the drilling fluid generates hydrostatic pressure in the borehole, it hinders fluid and gas penetration. Oilfield chemical are used to improve the efficiency ...

Global Aniline Market Is Expanding Owing To Growing Adoption of Aniline in Formulating Rubber Processing Chemicals and Increasing Demand for Premium Furnishings and Automotive Interiors

Image
 Aniline Market  Aniline is a basic aromatic amine, it is found naturally in coal tar, tobacco smoke, and in foods. The compound is used as a coloring agent and also as an intermediate for the production of polyurethane. It is a colorless to brown liquid that has a burning taste. When heated, it produces toxic fumes. There is evidence that aniline can cause kidney damage and red blood cell breakdown. Exposure to this dye may have adverse effects on the spleen. As an aromatic amine, it is a weak base. This means that it reacts vigorously with strong oxidants. During oxidation, it forms carbon-nitrogen bonds. These compounds can produce carbonyl products, which can fragment proteins. They also contribute to protein aggregation. The chemical has been identified as a probable carcinogen. It is also suspected that aniline dyes can affect the liver. It can have a negative effect on the eyes. Growing automotive industry is estimated to augment growth of the global aniline market duri...
