Chapter 1949 - Chapter 1949: Materials Science

The human bone is a part of the human body, and bones are composed of bone tissue, with living bone cells being a part of the bone tissue.

Despite orthopedic surgeons wielding heavy tools, like other surgeries, orthopedists aim to repair damaged parts using the patient's own cells. This method is the most natural, long-lasting, and has the fewest side effects.

Based on this idea, the best bone to fill gaps would be Autograft Bone. Autograft Bone involves taking a portion of bone from other healthy bones of the patient or extracting bone substance from a large bone, usually cancellous bone.

Just thinking about this bone harvesting procedure, patients and their families can feel the enormous pain that the patient needs to endure. In the past, without breakthroughs in material science, doctors and patients had no choice but this painful path. Therefore, Autograft Bone is not considered the best approach.
