Surface modification has been widely applied in biomedical fields to improve the bioactivity and biocompatibility of biomedical implants. In this research, a novel superimposed micro/nano‐structured titanium alloy surface is obtained by hybrid micro‐milling technology and alkali‐hydrothermal reaction. The results indicate that substrates with micro/nano‐structure provide a beneficial interfacial environment for the growth of MC3T3s. The cell adhesion and proliferation are improved with alkali‐hydrothermal reaction. Furthermore, the superimposed micro/nano‐structured surface is conducive to induce the differentiation of MC3T3s. Conclusions demonstrate that micro/nano‐structured surface is a promising method for improving the biocompatibility of titanium alloy implants.
