Abstract
Ti alloys possess the characteristics of low density, high specific strength, easy processing, and good biological and mechanical compatibility. These qualities have led to their use as raw materials in a large quantity and wide range of medium and high-end medical devices. However, various problems have come to light as the result of the application of metal medical devices for orthopedic repair or replacement of hard tissue, such as dental implants and artificial joints. In particular, questions about their long-term efficacy have prompted researchers to continue to develop new types of biomedical Ti alloy materials better match the biomechanical properties of bone tissue. This chapter focuses on the development and application of TLM alloy materials for medical devices in the orthopedics and dental fields.
