A biomaterial is any material (other
than drug), natural or synthetic, that
is used to make bio-implant, bio-
medical device that
treats, augments, or replaces any
tissue, organ and/or any body

Bio-Implant
Any substance other than the drug made of
Biomaterial-s that can be used for
any period of time as part of a system that
treats augments or replaces any tissues,
organ, or functions of the body,
And-
It is usually intended to remain there for a
significant period of time.

And does not achieve any of it's primary
intended purposes through chemical action
within or on
And is not dependent upon being metabolized
in the Body.
