Abstract
The increasing demand for orthopedic implants has driven the search for materials that combine strength, biocompatibility, and long lifetime. Compared to stainless steel and Co-Cr-based alloys, titanium (Ti) and its alloys are favored for biomedical implants because of their high strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. This comprehensive review delivers a wide overview of the field of titanium-based biomaterials for orthopedic implants applications, focusing on their types, mechanical and chemical resistance, surface modifications, innovations in fabrication techniques, titanium matrix composites, and machine learning advancements. Titanium alloys of different crystalline phases, including α,…
