Disclosed are a method for limiting diffusion of wear debris of an in vivo implant and an in vivo implant apparatus with a function of limiting wear debris. An elastomer seal is arranged at a wearing part between implant components that can move relatively and generate wear, such that an outlet for wear debris of the implant is always sealed within a sealing area formed by the seal and the implant components, thereby preventing the wear debris from diffusing outwards. The elastomer seal includes at least one flexible buffer part for reducing or completely offsetting relative motion between the implant components, thereby further reducing wear of a sealing part of the elastomer seal due to the relative motion between the parts. The seal is tightly attached to in vivo implant components, and the in vivo implant is smaller than a force for driving the components to generate relative motion.

Methods and devices for correcting wear pattern defects in joints. The methods and devices described herein allow for the restoration of correcting abnormal biomechanical loading conditions in a joint brought on by wear pattern defects, and also can, in embodiments, permit correction of proper kinematic movement.
