ABOUT THE REPORT
In the past, medical ceramics were represented by ceramic and clay implants that
remained inert in the host and acted as scaffolds or supports. Today the scenario has
changed remarkably due to the introduction of an entirely new generation of bioceramics.
These implants are, amazingly, structurally and functionally compatible with living tissue in
the human body and contribute to the development of new tissue. Over the past two
decades, there has been tremendous improvement in the performance of these
bioceramics, and technology advances have created a very huge market for ceramics in
the medical sector.
Although there are a few risks and ambiguities regarding the use of implants and medical
devices based on ceramics, NanoMarkets certainly believes that the market for
implantable bioceramics will continue to grow in future. This growth can possibly be
converted into profitable businesses by the companies manufacturing the medical ceramic
devices and the firms that supply the necessary raw materials.

OPPORTUNITIES IN MEDICAL DEVICES & IMPLANT SEGMENTS
PROSTHESES & BONE
REPLACEMENTS
All-ceramic
implants preferred
over ceramic-metal
and ceramicpolymer for small &
medium bone
replacements as
they offer
www.nanomarkets.net
• Better clinical trial
results
• Biocompatibility
• High degree of
osseo integration

7. ADVANCED PRODUCTION
METHODS
Injection molding, engineered coatings and
metal ceramic-assemblies have made complex
joints and small precision instruments a reality
Improved manufacturing processes will enhance
the application of medical ceramics to other
medical applications
Companies like Straumann, Nobel Biocare (NB),
and Zimmer adopting CAD/CAM for production
of implants

8. BIOACTIVE CERAMIC
COATINGS
Combination mechanical & bioactive properties
makes ceramic coatings on metal useful for
medical applications
ACP, Glass ceramic coatings on titanium & DLC
coatings are a few examples.
Development in coating process technology,
making bioactive ceramic cost-effective

9. PIEZO-CERAMICS & NANO-CERAMICS
Piezo-Ceramics in demand due to applicability in Piezoceramic sensors and motors in the medical diagnostic
equipments
• High-strength nano-composites and superior biocompatible
coatings for implants, a reality because of nanometer-sized
biomaterials
Nano-technology and micro-technology will continue to be
used in fabrication of bio-devices
• To be used for diagnosis and treatment of cancer because
of healing ability and their potential as a next generation
drug delivery system

10. OPPORTUNITIES IN HEALTHCARE
ORTHOPEDICS & DENTISTRY
Bone scaffolding, a new technology in which medical ceramics
are finding potential
• Bio-ceramic hip joints are already a hit as these longer
lasting joints offer patients relatively active life.
Demand is likely to come from USA, as FDA has approved
ceramic-based implants
• Aging global population will heavily drive demand

11. SCAFFOLD-GUIDED BONE
REGENERATION
Medical ceramicsare the perfect material for scaffold
guided bone regeneration
• Wound healing is another application area in which
many companies are active
In addition to knee and hip replacements, small bone
replacements are likely to see growth
• A number of regenerative solutions now being offered
by companies like Zimmer

12. INJECT ABLE CERAMIC &
REGENERATION
Immediate pain relief, durability, full weight-bearing recovery,
bone consolidation, and maintenance of the structural
integrity of the bone favors injectable ceramics for
reconstructive foot and back-filling procedures
• Bonesupport, curasan (DE) and covalent Materials
Corporation (JP) are active in this area
Injectable ceramics that can be injected with minimal invasion
has potential to enter bone reconstruction, drug delivery
system and other medical applications
• Such bone substitute solutions have trong business
potential and firms that have recognized this will benefit in
future
