This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the wide spectrum of surface modifications employed in biomaterials to meet various clinical needs. It addresses mechanical, thermal, and chemical modifications, detailing the challenges, advantages, and target applications associated with each technique. Innovative coating architectures can be designed to offer different bio-functionalities including targeted drug delivery (e.g., site-specific adhesion) or biomimetic tissue regeneration; anti-bacterial response (i.e., targeted bacterial adhesion); and stimulation of angiogenesis.

Though discussing both conventional and recent strategies for surface modifications, considerable priority is placed on hybrid/composite strategies, specifically the integration of two or more coating technologies to promote synergistic effects and improve clinical outcomes. Through thorough analysis and case examples, this book will demonstrate the incorporation of next generation coating technologies into clinical practice to provide new insights on next generation biomaterials for advanced patient care.

Underscoring the pivotal role of surface modification in advancing the safety, functionality, and longevity of biomedical implants, this book will be a valuable and definitive title for industry professionals, clinicians and researchers.
