The design, manufacturing and testing of load-bearing implants made of titanium, titanium alloy and magnesium produced by selective laser melting (SLM) will be presented. Analytical, structural, mechanical, in-silico, in-vitro and in-vivo studies are indispensable to verify the performance of such novel biomaterials. In particular the results from 3D-printed shape memory implants will be discussed.
