Biomaterials, when implanted in the human body, interface with the biological system to restore or replace organs and tissues. Ti and its alloys have relevant characteristics to be used in the biomedical field, including proven biocompatibility, good mechanical and corrosive resistance, and low modulus of elasticity. However, despite the significant properties already highlighted, there i…
Biomaterials, when implanted in the human body, perform an interface with the biological system, with the function of restoring or replacing organs and tissues. Ti or Nb-based alloys have relevant characteristics to be used in the biomedical area, including proven biocompatibility, good mechanical and corrosive resistance, and low modulus of elasticity. However, despite the significant pr…
Titanium and its alloys are widely used in orthopedic and dental implants due to their remarkable biocompatibility, high corrosion resistance, and excellent strength-to-density ratio compared to other alloys frequently used in the biomedical field. Among globally and in Brazil employed titanium alloys for orthopedic implants, Ti6-Al-4V is the most prevalent; however, this alloy contains e…

Titanium and its alloys are used in orthopedic and dental implants due to the essential biocompatibility characteristics, high corrosion resistance, and high mechanical strength/density ratio compared to other alloys commonly used in the biomedical field. Among the titanium alloys used in Brazil and worldwide for orthopedic implants, the most used is the Ti-6Al-4V alloy. However, this all…
Titanium and its alloys are used in orthopedic and dental implants due to the appropriate characteristics of biocompatibility and high corrosion resistance and excellent mechanical strength/density ratio when compared to other metallic alloys used in the biomedical area. Among the titanium alloys used in Brazil and in the world for orthopedic implants, the most used is the Ti-6Al-4V alloy…
Due to the excellent biocompatibility allied to corrosion resistance, the application of titanium alloys in the field of orthopedic and dental implants have gained strength since 1970. However, the elastic modulus of these alloys is still about 2 to 4 times higher than the human bone. The most widely used titanium alloy for biomedical applications is Ti-6Al-4V, however, previous studies h…
