Titanium alloy plate, titanium alloy rod and other products are widely used in daily life. In recent years, the application of titanium alloy products in the medical field is more and more common. This article summarizes the application of titanium alloy products in the medical field.

The world population is nearly 6.5 billion. According to incomplete statistics, there are nearly 400 million disabled people, 60 million disabled people with limbs, and 2 billion patients with dental diseases. At present, there are only 35 million people implanted with biomaterial devices, and the annual number of joint replacements is about 1.5 million, which is far from the actual number of replacements. Therefore, the potential market demand for biomedical materials is huge. As the first choice of biomedical metal materials - titanium rod and titanium plate demand will also increase, so it is imperative to increase the research and development of medical titanium alloy materials.

Biomedical titanium is an important branch of materials science. It is a new carrier material with high technical content and high economic value, which is used for diagnosis, treatment or replacement of human tissues and organs or to improve their functions. It is a developing new field in materials science and technology. Biomedical titanium bar makes greater contribution to the exploration of human life mystery and the guarantee of human health and longevity.

Among biomedical metal materials, titanium and titanium alloys, by virtue of their excellent comprehensive properties, It has become the preferred material for artificial joints (hip, knee, shoulder, ankle, elbow, wrist, knuckles, etc.), bone trauma products (intramedullary nails, plates, screws, etc.), spinal orthotic internal fixation system, dental implants, braces, orthotic wires, artificial heart valves, interventional cardiovascular stents and other medical plant products. At present, there is no better metal material than titanium alloy for clinical use.
