BODY JOINT REPLACEMENT TITANIUM IMPLANT COMPRISING ONE OR SEVERAL BASE BODIES

摘要

The invention relates to a body joint replacement titanium implant comprisin g one or several base bodies. In known titanium implants, there is a risk of loosening due to the anchoring of the implants in the bone at points where a n optimum bone regeneration is undesirable. The functioning of the joints of t he implants can be impaired by coalescing with connective tissue. The novel titanium implants avoid said problems by virtue of the fact that parts (3, 4 , 8, 9) of the implant are provided with an anodically (type II) oxidised laye r containing oxygen and silicon.
