The evolution of orthopedic implants has long been driven by the need for materials that balance mechanical support with biological compatibility. Traditional metallic implants, such as titanium and stainless steel, provide robust structural integrity but often necessitate secondary surgeries for removal and can impede natural bone remodeling due to stress shielding. Magnesium (Mg)-based bioresorbable implants represent a transformative alternative, leveraging the element’s inherent biocompatibility and degradability to support bone regeneration while eliminating the need for explantation.
