Abstract：Tantalum-based materials are a class of materials in which tantalum serves as the primary component or core structural element,modified through alloying,composite formation,or specialized processing techniques to meet specific application requirements.With mechanical properties closely matching those of human bone,exceptional long-term stability,intrinsic osteoinductive potential,unparalleled corrosion resistance,antithrombogenicity,and surface functionalization capabilities,they demonstrate tremendous promise in orthopedics,oral medicine,and interventional vascular medicine.This paper presents a systematic review of the biological foundations,current applications,and future prospects of tantalum-based materials in the medical field,offering a scientific reference for their further clinical translation.
