description This Reprint gathers cutting-edge research and reviews on ceramic and metallic biomaterials with direct applications in medical sciences. The contributions reflect a broad spectrum of approaches to enhance the safety, performance, and functionality of implants, coatings, and therapeutic systems. Several studies investigate antibacterial and antifungal coatings for dental and orthopedic applications, demonstrating how Ti(C,N)-based layers, sol-gel silica with natural compounds, and anodized Ti-Ag alloys can reduce microbial adhesion while maintaining excellent biocompatibility and corrosion resistance. Other works explore hybrid ceramic–polymer systems enriched with carbon nanotubes, doped bioglass and hydroxyapatite coatings, and advanced methods such as CoBlast deposition, all aimed at improving osseointegration and bone regeneration. Beyond implants, the Reprint includes innovative approaches in nanomedicine and diagnostics, such as magnetic and gold-coated nanostructures for theranostic use, multimodal cancer therapies combining hyperthermia, chemotherapy, and magneto-mechanical actuation, and proof-of-concept sensors for detecting magnetic nanoparticles. Complementary reviews highlight progress in dental implant surface modification, the role of porous titanium alloys in bone regeneration, and the future of orthopedic biomaterials. Together, these works illustrate how advances in material design and processing are driving next-generation biomedical solutions, bridging fundamental research with clinical application.
