TL;DR: The purpose of the review is to assess state of the art and future perspectives of the so called "smart biomaterials" from a translational science and specifically clinical point of view and to filter out and discuss which biomedical advances and innovations help to achieve the objective to translate smart biomMaterials from bench to bedside.

TL;DR: The goal of the present document is to review the most recent achievements in the field and to analyze future directions in research and development.

TL;DR: Low-temperature direct 3D printing to produce brushite and monetite implants with different geometries resulted in bone formation within the channels of both monetite and brushite, indicating osteoinductivity of these resorbable materials.

TL;DR: Due to similar mechanical performance when compared to pure titanium, the TiAg coatings should be suitable to provide antimicrobial activity on load-bearing implant surfaces and showed significant antimicrobial potency against Staphylococcus epidermis and Klebsiella pneumoniae strains.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that an effective method for improving the injection properties of CPC was by the use of sodium citrate solution as a liquid component, resulting in high P:L mixes which were 400% stronger than cements made with water.
