Chapter 5 Oxide Bioceramics: Inert Ceramic Materials in Medicine and Dentistry

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Abstract

Single oxide ceramics, e.g. aluminium oxide (A12O3, alumina) and zirconium dioxide (ZrO2, zirconia), are bioceramics of an inert nature. An inert ceramic does not form a bonding to bone similar to those bioceramics of bioactive nature. Alumina bioceramics are in the pure aluminium oxide form, whereas zirconia bioceramics are partially stabilized by additional oxides, e.g. yttrium oxide, calcium oxide or magnesium oxide.
