3D Printed Orthopedic Implants to Improve Osseointegration
Detailed Technology Description
LSU researchers have developed 3D printed metallic implants that promote bone growth and attachment as well as suppress infectious bacterial growth for use as a dental or other orthopedic implant. The implant contains a network of interconnecting pores loaded with stem cell attracting materials and antibacterial agents in order to generate bone tissue while preventing the bacterial growth at the implant site.
