Abstract
Implantable prosthesis and medical devices are subjected to several interacting forces whenever they come in contact with the physiologic systems (blood, immune, musculoskeletal, nervous, digestive, respiratory, reproductive and urinary) and organs of the human body. These interactions include the effects of core body temperature (and/or variable temperatures in the oral cavity), the body physiologic fluids containing several ions and biomolecules, proteins and cells of various progeny and functions. This chapter focuses on cell tissue-implant interactions and how carbon-based implants are being developed for next-generation implantable devices. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2007, 2016.
