UNIT I INTRODUCTION

Human anatomy- tissues- organs- repair- regeneration- Wolff’s Law – biomaterial – compatibility – classification- Biomimetics – Material response: swelling and leaching, corrosion and dissolution, deformation and failure, friction and wear – host response: the inflammatory process – coagulation and hemolysis- in vitro and in vivo evaluation of
biomaterials – Testing and validation- government regulatory bodies.

UNIT II DENTAL MATERIALS

Teeth composition, formation and properties – temporary fixation devices -classification –– biomaterials used- metals and alloys- Fillings and restoration materials – oral and maxillofacial surgery – dental cements and dental amalgams – dental adhesives.

UNIT III ORTHOPAEDIC MATERIALS

Bone composition, formation and regeneration – properties – defects – temporary fixation devices – joint replacement – biomaterials used in bone and joint replacement metals and alloys- stress shielding effect- bone tissue engineering.

UNIT IV WOUND DRESSING MATERIALS AND SURGICAL AIDS

Skin structure – defects ( burn, ulcer, trauma etc) and disease- skin regeneration – classification of regenerative material – Sutures- Adhesives – classification – Surgical tools materials – sterilization – Laparoscopic tools

UNIT V CARDIOVASCULAR, OPTHALMOLOGY AND DRUG DELIVERY MATERIALS

Blood clotting – blood theology– approaches to thrombo resistance materials development– blood vessels – The heart – aorta and valves – geometry of blood circulation – cardiac pacemakers – extracorporeal blood circulation devices. lungs – vascular implants: vascular graft, cardiac valve prostheses – Eye- defects – correction- Biomaterials in opthalmology – drug delivery methods and materials.
