Osseointegration Implants Used to Support a Prosthesis Until It Becomes Strong Enough to Support It


An osseointegration implant is an endosteal implant that contains pores into which osteoblasts and supporting connective tissue can migrate. Osseointegration is a medical term used to describe the fusing process that takes place while patient heal from dental implant treatment. Such implants are used in various applications, such as dental implants, bone and joint replacement procedures, and implants undertaken of amputees, providing better quality of life to the amputees. Therefore, there is an increasing demand for osseointegration implants.

A dental implant become the part of the gums and jawbone when osseointegration occurs. During this time, temporary teeth may be fitted. Once osseointegration implants are fully integrated, the permanent replacement teeth are fixed on top of the implants or implant posts. Osseointegration are a surgical procedure that provides improved mobility and function, and quality of life to people who have had an amputation. A surgery involves inserting an implant into a bone of the residual limb, and then attaching it directly to the prosthesis without having to use a socket.

The global Osseointegration Implants Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 7,558.90 million in 2022 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period (2022-2030).

The procedure is called direct skeletal fixation (DSF) and can be performed in one or two stages, depending on the type of implant system involved. It is a procedure for amputees where the metal implant is anchored into the existing bone. Osseointegration aims to offer better quality of life and improved function and mobility to individuals who have had an amputation. It involves inserting a metal implant into the bone of the residual limb, which then attaches directly to the prosthesis, eliminating socket-related issues.

The benefits include more overall mobility and stability, increased ease of use (especially for the lower limb amputees), and less likelihood of deep infection or osteomyelitis. There are many types, but most widely used is the osseointegrated implant based on the premise that a titanium implant can be successfully integrated into bone when osteoblasts attach to the titanium surface. Stainless steel has proven to be a good material for implants and was often used in trauma surgery. These implants are characterized by good mechanical properties, easy production, and low costs.

Thus, there is an increasing demand for Osseointegration Implants worldwide. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the Osseoanchored Prostheses for the Rehabilitation of Amputees (OPRA) Implant System, the first implant system for adults who have transfemoral, or above-the-knee, amputations and who have or are anticipated to have rehabilitation problems with, or cannot use, a conventional socket prosthesis.

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...
