  Abstract: Metals such as titanium, cobalt, and magnesium are commonly used as biomaterials. However, their use can lead to tissue reactions due to the formation of foreign bodies which may cause blood cancer. Researchers have addressed this issue by substituting biomaterials with polymethyl methacrylate materials (PMMA). The PMMA material being studied is produced using the compression molding technique. This article examines the mechanical properties and biotoxicity of PMMA. These materials have …
