The number of patients suffering from different kind of tissue related diseases is increasing rapidly and researchers are earnestly looking for alternative source for producing biomaterials that can meet the demand. Commercially sourced hydroxyapatites are from synthetic origin and of high cost. Hence, the utilization of agricultural wastes as source of hydroxyapatite is of great interest. Therefore, this work considered the importance of biomaterials and the various types of emergent agro-wastes that have been utilized for hydroxyapatite production in recent time and, hence, encourage more research in this area of interest.

“…Usually, the surface chemistry is held constant, while the nanotopography or nanogeometry is varied. The history of orthopedic implant materials has made it obvious that body tissues respond differently to surfaces depending on the type of foreign material [29]. Surface chemical factors are in fact one of the most significant factors on the nanoscale that can affect cell-material interactions [30].…”

The complex mechanisms of the bone cell-surface interactions are yet to be completely understood, and researchers continue to strive to uncover the fully optimized implant material for perfect osseointegration. A particularly fascinating area of research involves the study of nanostructured surfaces, which are believed to enhance osteogenic behavior, possibly due to the mimicry of components of the extracellular matrix of bone. There is a growing body of data that emphasizes the promise of the titanium oxide (TiO2) nanotube architecture as an advanced orthopedic implant material. The review herein highlights findings regarding TiO2 nanotube surfaces for bone regeneration and the osteogenic effects of minute changes to the surface such as tube size and surface chemistry.

“…Imparting multi-functionality on bio-inert metals, such as Ti- and Co- based alloys, is generally achieved by surface modification, such as surface structuring or coating with bioactive ceramic and polymer thin films. Bio-inert materials, most commonly based on Ti, Co, and steel, are critical for many load-bearing functions, where their resistance to corrosion provides excellent long-term stability and reliable mechanical strength, with minimal long-term toxicity to the host locally or on systemic level [ 16 , 17 ]. These materials have excellent tensile strength, fracture toughness and fatigue stress [ 18 , 19 ], and over the years, they have found applications in orthopaedics as artificial joints, plates and screws, orthodontics as braces and dental implants, cardiovascular and neurosurgical devices such as components of artificial hearts, staples, stents and wires.…”

Metallic biomaterials are engineered systems designed to provide internal support to biological tissues and they are being used largely in joint replacements, dental implants, orthopaedic fixations and stents. Higher biomaterial usage is associated with an increased incidence of implant-related complications due to poor implant integration, inflammation, mechanical instability, necrosis and infections, and associated prolonged patient care, pain and loss of function. In this review, we will briefly explore major representatives of metallic biomaterials along with the key existing and emerging strategies for surface and bulk modification used to improve biointegration, mechanical strength and flexibility of biometals, and discuss their compatibility with the concept of 3D printing.
