Abstract

This chapter is an introduction to nanotechnology and nanomaterials with emphasis on orthopedic applications. It covers different types of nanomaterials used in orthopedic applications including metals, polymers, ceramics, carbon materials and composites and their main structures and features. In addition, the significance of the nanomaterial surface and its toxicological effect on the success rate of implantation were discussed. This chapter also covers current applications of nanomaterials in bone tissue engineering. Finally, it presents characterizations of nanomaterials and their interactions with biological systems using advanced nanotechnology tools.
