Bioceramics of aluminum oxide and calcium phosphate have a wide range of applications in orthopedic surgery. Each type of bioceramic is substantially different from the other, and variations exist within each type depending on the source and intended application. The physical, mechanical, chemical, and biologic properties are specific to each bioceramic. Significantly different tissue responses have been demonstrated among the various aluminum oxide, hydroxylapatite, and tricalcium phosphate bioceramics. Since the prospects for expanded clinical applications are excellent, the clinical community should become better acquainted with these types of biomaterials.
氧化铝和磷酸钙生物陶瓷在整形外科手术中有广泛应用。每种生物陶瓷彼此之间存在显著差异，且每种类型内部也因来源和预期应用不同而有所变化。每种生物陶瓷都具有特定的物理、机械、化学和生物学特性。在各种氧化铝、羟基磷灰石和磷酸三钙生物陶瓷中已证明存在显著不同的组织反应。鉴于扩大临床应用的前景极佳，临床界应更好地了解这些类型的生物材料。
