Adverse tissue reactions are the most common causes of implant failure, they can affect up to 40 of patients with Metal on Metal MoM implants in the first five years of implantation, and a lower but non-negligible number of Metal on Polyethylene MoP and Ceramic on Polyethylene implants 1 ...

Bioactive glasses have long been studied as bone replacement materials. Owing to their lower chemical durability, bioactive borate glasses degrade more rapidly and consequently have a quicker conversion rate to bone-like mineral hydroxy-carbonated apatite, HCA when compared to the traditional silicate bioactive glasses 1 ...

Metal by-products, including metal ions, released in greater amount from metal-on-metal MM hip implants than from metal-on-polyethylene implants are a cause for concern as they can compromise the functionality and survivorship of the implants due to adverse tissue reactions 1, 2 ...
