Restoring functionality<br />
Implants are designed to replace natural bodily functions that have been lost<br />
and in doing so to restore balance to destroyed physiology.<br />

Understanding the problems<br />
To develop an optimal implant we need to ask ourselves a lot of questions.<br />
For example: In which part of the body will it be implanted? What functions does it<br />
have to fulfil? What static and dynamic stresses act on the implant?<br />
Relevant dynamometric measurements, discussions with surgeons<br />
and the expertise of our engineers provide the answers.<br />
Defining functionality<br />
Together with medical experts our engineers can define the shape, functionality and<br />
profile of properties for the implant. They now know exactly what stabilities, elasticities and<br />
porosities are required, how handling can be improved for the surgeon<br />
and much more.<br />
