Abstract

Prosthetics have come a long way, evolving from their first prototypes with limited functionality to advanced computer-based systems integrated with AI and enhanced by nanomaterials. Three dimensional (3D) nanomaterial prosthetics have caught the attention of the medical community and have shown promising revolutionary advancements in prosthetic implants. Nanomaterials have become extremely versatile and applicable in many different health applications, thus researchers have explored the integration of 3D nanomaterials into prosthetics. This review provides a brief overview of the common types of nanomaterials, along with various examples and their properties. Additionally, various examples of nanomaterial prosthetics will be discussed along with any implant implementation concerns. In the end, future research on nanomaterials and prosthetics will be presented. To summarize, this review will provide readers with a brief understanding of nanomaterials and their implementation in prosthetics.
