Titanium Alloy For Medical Applications

October 05, 2023

Exploring the Features of Medical Implant Devices

Titanium has many useful features including low specific gravity, half that of nickel, excellent corrosion resistance and strength, high biocompatibility, and non-magnetic properties useful for MRI application. With these advantageous features, titanium is an optimum material for medical prosthetic devices. To accommodate the wide range of increasing needs, Daido Steel has established a manufacture-logistics streaming system from raw material procurement to sales and distribution which is available for multiple products and small-lot.

Also，There are many practical applications of titanium products in the medical field, including the following:

1. Titanium implants: Titanium alloy is an extremely biocompatible material that can be used to manufacture a variety of implants, such as artificial joints, dental implants, bone plates and screws. These implants can replace damaged tissues or bones and restore patients' function and quality of life.

2. Titanium Alloy Instruments: Surgical instruments made of titanium alloy have excellent corrosion resistance and strength, and can be used in surgical operations such as cutting, drilling and fixation. The use of titanium instruments can reduce surgical trauma and the risk of infection.

3. Titanium scaffolds: Titanium scaffolds can be used to support and immobilise fractured bones or bone defects, promoting bone healing and regeneration. The advantages of titanium braces are that they are lightweight, strong and less likely to cause rejection.

4. Titanium Denture: Titanium denture has good biocompatibility and corrosion resistance, and can be used to make full dentures, single crowns, and restoration of missing teeth. The use of titanium alloy denture can improve the patient's chewing function and oral aesthetics.

5. Titanium alloy medical devices: Titanium alloy can be used to manufacture medical devices, such as medical needles, catheters and surgical forceps. Titanium alloy instruments are lightweight, corrosion-resistant and easy to clean, which can improve the efficiency and safety of medical operations.

In short, titanium products have a wide range of practical applications in the medical field, which can improve patients' health and quality of life.
