Unusual uses of ceramics?

Hey its my art homework to figure out some unusual uses of ceramics, i‘ve been searching the internet for ages trying to find answers but i got nothing. could anyone help or know anything? thanks x

Answer:

teeth (crown or inlay) ceramic hip joints roof tiles ceramic engines ceramic watch cases ceramic membranes it is also common to make non-functional teapots for their sculptural value only. A lot of ceramic sculpture is unique. Some of it is even meant to make other people think.
How unusual? Heat resistant tiles for the Shuttle, for counter tops, and fire places. Cookware of various kinds such as Corningware. Acid resistant pipes Clay sewer pipes
