Bio-inert ceramics: The largest type of Bioceramics & Piezoceramics
Bio-inert ceramics are high strength ceramics that are used in load-bearing body implants. These ceramics do not
interact with the body environment apart from causing an initial fibrous tissue reaction, which coats the ceramic.
These bio-inert ceramics can be used in similar situations to metallic implants as they exhibit impressive hardness
& war characteristics, low friction, and produce no adverse immune response. Most widely used materials in bioinert ceramics are aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and zirconia oxide (ZrO2). These are used in the construction of
orthopedic and dental implants. With the growing need for implantable medical devices and increasing orthopedic
and dental implant surgeries, the demand for these ceramics is expected to drive the bioceramics and
piezoceramics market in the near future.
Dental implants: The largest application for bioceramics and piezoceramics
Dental implant is the replacement of tooth or bridge by an artificial tooth root that is placed in the jaw. Dental
implants are the largest application of bioceramics and piezoceramics worldwide. Alumina, titanium, and zirconia
are the major materials used for this application. As ceramics are characterized with high mechanical strength,
excellent biocompatibility, tribological properties, and dimensional stability, these are ideal materials preferred for
dental implants. The use of bioceramics and piezoceramics is growing significantly with the development of more
advanced and specialized ceramics as they are much more compatible and versatile than previous bio-metals. Bioinert ceramics and bio-active ceramics are the most appropriate and adaptable bioceramics and piezoceramics
used in this application. Additionally, the bioceramics and piezoceramics market is expected to grow further with
the shift in medical tourism from the U.S. and the U.K. to Malaysia, China, and India.
Asia-Pacific: The largest market for bioceramics and piezoceramics
Asia-Pacific is the global forerunner of bioceramics and piezoceramics market, in terms of value and volume, and is
expected to continue till 2020. The countries in this region such as China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Indonesia
are witnessing a significant increase in the use of bioceramics and piezoceramics in dental implants, orthopedic
implants, surgical & diagnostic instruments, and other applications. The rapidly growing demand in end-use
applications, competitive manufacturing costs, and high economic growth rate are the driving forces for the
bioceramics and piezoceramics market growth in this region.
