Bioinert ceramics are a form of bioceramics that is characterized based on
how they react biologically in the human body. Bioinert ceramics are often classified as
biologically inert nature or bioinert ceramics that do not elicit a suitable reaction or
interact with nearby living tissues when implanted into a biological system. In other
words, exposing bioinert ceramics to the human environment will not cause any
chemical interactions between the implant and the bone tissue. Bioinert ceramic
materials have been used in the form of medical devices and implants to replace or reestablish the function of degenerated or traumatized organs or tissue of the human body
due to their excellent chemical stability, biocompatibility, mechanical strength,
corrosion restriction behavior, and wear resistance. Materials based on titanium,
alumina, and zirconia are used in bioinert nanoceramics., In a biological environment,
they are bioinert, fracture-tough, and have high mechanical strength. Because of their
corrosion resistance, titanium and titanium-based alloys are widely used in bone tissue
repair.
