Abstract：Biodegradable biomaterials can be decomposed in vivo and the decomposed products can be absorbed or excreted by the organism.Widely used in bone implantation,the biodegradable materials are mainly polymers such as polylactic acid (PLA),polyglycolic acid (PGA),but the strength of these materials are generally low,it is difficult to bear large load,and the acidic degradation products,may lead to inflammation.Magnesium and its alloy not only has good mechanical properties,and non-toxic to humans,the corrosion can be gradually degraded in vivo,as a kind of promising biodegradable implant biomaterials magnesium is becoming increasingly popular and very likely to be a new generation of craniofacial fixation material.In this paper,the present research status of Mg based alloys is reviewed,and the advantages of Mg based alloys are proposed.
