In all these implantable biomaterials, science and technology are imposing new designs with combinations of new biomaterials, new coatings, and new design and manufacturing technologies (biomimetic biomaterials, functional biomaterials, nanotechnology, finite element modeling, additive manufacturing, 3D printing, tissue engineering, and drug delivery) that will revolutionize the field of implants in the short term. Biomaterials are part of biomedical engineering and bring together knowledge from the world of science, engineering, biology, and medicine, being a multidisciplinary field where borders have no place. %~
