Biodegradable implants are medical devices designed to support healing in the body and gradually dissolve over time. Made from materials that break down naturally, these implants eliminate the need for surgical removal after they have served their purpose. They are often used in procedures like bone repair or tissue engineering. As the implant degrades, it is absorbed by the body, reducing the risk of complications associated with permanent implants. This technology is beneficial in various fields, including orthopedics and cardiology, as it promotes healing while minimizing long-term foreign material in the body.
