I'm baffled. What century do we live in? According to all the surgeons in the medical field, antibiotics don't cure a "deep" infection of an implant. So, plastic or metal can be infected? There's no prosthetic material that can reject bacteria? Well, I just did a cursory search to answer my own question. I guess copper is the one metal that resists bacteria. I'm wondering why the medical field hasn't been able to find a material that can be used in a transplant that resists bacterial infection. Maybe in the next century we'll have an answer.
