Abstract | ||||
The main property required of metallic biomaterials such as Titanium foam for biomedical applications is to be a biocompatible material. Good mechanical properties, osseointegration, high corrosion resistance, and excellent wear resistance are required. Furthermore, it is crucial for improving the biological and mechanical properties of the highly porous structure of titanium foams as implant materials for dental implants. Owing to its outstanding mechanical properties, low density, and high chemical resistance, titanium-based foams have various promising applications. This paper aims to highlight the significance of porosity in the blend of dental implants of Titanium foam with bone tissue and the space holder fabrication method presently being studied. It has been found that the preservative built-up technique is promising for controlling both pore size and shape to achieve the optimum biological properties of Titanium foam. Titanium foam has been successfully synthesized through the space holder method. | ||||
