Abstract: Bioglasses are promising alternatives as biomedical materials to repair or replace damaged parts of bones because of its good bioactivity and biocompatibility. It is possible to combine the bone-bonding ability of the bioglass surface with the high mechanical properties of the metallic substrate though the coating of metallic implants with bioglass. The principles and characteristics of some coating techniques, including sintering, plasma spray, sol-gel, electrophoresis deposition, ion beam assisted deposition and pulsed laser deposition, are introduced. Their current applications in preparing bioglass coatings are reviewed in detail. The future application trends are also reviewed.
