Bone Cement Market Development Trends & Competitive Analysis by Leading Industry Players
Bone cement is commonly known as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and is widely used for implant fixation in various orthopedic, dental, and trauma surgeries. Bone cement has no intrinsic adhesive properties; however, it relies on close mechanical interlock between the irregular bone surface and the prosthesis. Commercially, bone cement is available as calcium phosphate cement (CPC) and glass polyalkenoate (ionomer) cement (GPC). CPC is bioabsorbable and biocompatible, used primarily in cranial and maxillofacial surgeries due to its low mechanical strength. The use...
